With the score tied 5-5, Manny came to the plate in the eighth and ended any hope of a Tribe victory with a three-run homer over the right field wall. The Tribe roughed up four-game winner Curt Schilling for five runs in 6 2/3 innings but it didn’t matter as Ramirez’s home run off Mota sealed the deal for the Red Sox as they gave the Indians their third straight loss, beating them 8-6. Ben Broussard highlighted the Tribe by going 3 for 4 with a home run.

Pitching, pitching, pitching. Whether it’s the starters or the relievers, nobody can seem to form any sense of consistency lately.
