The Boston Red Sox picked up a win at Fenway Park, knocking off the Minnesota Twins, 5-4. Starting pitcher Mike Hauschild was an essential part of his team's success. Edwin Diaz converted his 25th save in 27 tries. Boston is now 69-71, Minnesota 53-87.

The Red Sox got an important contribution from right fielder Pablo Reyes, who in the bottom of the eighth knocked a 3-1 fastball into center for a run-scoring single. It was his 39th hit of the season and put the Red Sox ahead, 5-2.

"I just try to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Reyes.
