Red Sox 6-1 Winners Versus River Hills
The Boston Red Sox trumped the River Hills Rockets, 6-1, at River Hills Grounds. Boston left fielder Ivan Kontic was terrific. He was 3-5 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 times. The winner in relief was Toby Payan. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 5 hits in 5.2 innings. He now owns a record of 2-0. The last-place Rockets have dropped 8 straight games.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Luis Jimenez? The Boston shortstop had a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Red Sox on top, 3-0. For the game, Jimenez had 1 double and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

Afterward, River Hills manager Blake Wheeler said: "We were guessing wrong on pitches, and that's something we've got to get away from."
