Red Sox Down Dodgers, 4-1
John Smoltz pitched a gem to lead Boston to victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers, 4-1. Smoltz, now 12-7, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 3, walking 0, and allowing 1 run. Jose Acevedo collected save number 31.

Boston took a 3-1 lead on Frank Catalanotto's 10th home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which Catalanotto hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Los Angeles pitcher Jon Pridie visibly frustrated.

"The effort we put into this one paid off," Catalanotto said.

Their 76-67 record puts the Red Sox 11th in the Virtual Baseball League.
