Red Sox Walk It Off for 77th Win of Season
The Boston Red Sox did just enough to sneak past the Los Angeles Dodgers, 6-5, at Fenway Park. Boston pitcher Roy Oswalt, in particular, had a standout performance. With the win, the Red Sox hiked their record to 77-67.

The decisive blow was delivered by Jody Gerut in the bottom of the fifth when he hit a 3-run home run off 22-year old right-handed pitcher Kyle Yates to win the game for Boston. The home crowd went nuts.

"Exciting game to play in," said Gerut. "Getting the win makes it even better."
