LOWELL'S SLAM POWERS BOSOX

Associated Press

June 13, 2008

Mike Lowell hit his second grand slam of the season, a streaking J.D. Drew hit a two-run shot and the Red Sox kept rolling at home with a 9-2 win over the Orioles last night.

The Red Sox are 18-3 in their last 21 games at Fenway Park. Their 28-7 home record is the best in the majors, but their 14-20 mark away from home is the worst of the six division leaders. They open a six-game road trip tonight in Cincinnati.

In the 11 games David Ortiz has missed with a wrist injury, Drew is 18-for-36 with six homers and 15 RBIs and raised his batting average from .282 to .324. Hitting in Ortiz's third spot in the lineup, he went 2-for-4 yesterday, extending his hitting streak to 11 games.

Phillies 3, Marlins 0

In Miami, Jamie Moyer (7-3) took a no-hitter into the sixth inning, and Philadelphia scored two runs off a wild pitch on the way to avoiding a three-game sweep.
