Memphis turned a good effort from starter Stubby Overmire into a win over the Cleveland Spiders at League Park. The Red Sox won the game, 4-2. Armando Benitez was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 2 of 2 save opportunities. Memphis has 3 straight wins, Cleveland 4 straight losses.

Wade Boggs came through with a big-time hit for Memphis. The third baseman smacked a solo home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 3-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"I thought we competed really well," said Red Sox manager Daniel Makonnen. "I thought the energy was really good."
