Wild night at Fenway



Wild night at Fenway
The Boston Red Sox set a major league record by scoring 10 runs before making an out against the Florida Marlins and led 14-1 after the first inning Friday night in Boston.
They went on to win 25-8.
The 14 runs tied an AL record for most in the first inning, and Johnny Damon equaled a major league mark with three hits in an inning. His single, double and triple left him just a homer short of the cycle.
Boston roughed up starter Carl Pavano, Michael Tejera and Allen Levrault for 13 hits, six for extra bases, and drew four walks.
Manny Ramirez hit a three-run homer, and Todd Walker, Kevin Millar, Bill Mueller and Jason Varitek each drove in two runs. Every Red Sox batter had at least one hit, and seven scored in the inning.
All that took 50 minutes and lasted 91 pitches as 19 Red Sox went to the plate.
