Gant Helps Devil Rays Run Win Streak to 5
The Orlando Devil Rays defeated the Boston Red Sox, 8-6, at Fenway Park today. Leading the charge for Orlando was designated hitter Ron Gant. He was 4-5 with a home run and 3 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3. Randy Tomlin got the win, improving to 3-3. He worked 9 innings, giving up 6 runs on 10 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 1. The 5th-place Red Sox have dropped 6 straight games.

It could have been a different outcome for Orlando, had it not been for Brian Jordan, the two-time All-Star . Jordan contributed a run-scoring walk in the top of the fifth inning to put Orlando up, 5-2.

"It's always a heck of a lot easier to get to sleep after a win," Gant told the Orlando Daily News. "I know I'll rest easy tonight."
