Red Sox Use Late Surge to Win
Buddy Bell did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Portland Sea Dogs from being beaten, 8-6, to the Memphis Red Sox at Fenway Park. Bell was 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. Jonathan Papelbon was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 19 of 25 save opportunities. The win makes Memphis 55-62.

Manny Ramírez, who is tied for 10th in the AL in home runs with 35, chipped in a solo home run for Memphis in the bottom of the eighth. For the game, the designated hitter had 2 hits in 3 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 1 run batted in.

"I just tried to make good contact," said Ramírez.
