09/04/2010 - Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Gavin Floyd tossed six solid innings and Carlos Quentin posted two hits and scored twice as the Chicago White Sox edged Boston, 3-1, to sweep a doubleheader at Fenway Park.
Mark Teahen also had a pair of hits and Ramon Castro drove in a run for the White Sox, who took the opener by a 3-1 count and have won five straight games. Chicago also crept within 3 1/2 games of the first-place Twins in the AL Central. Minnesota beat Texas earlier Saturday.
Floyd (10-11) scattered five hits and a run in his outing, fanning five with two walks.
Marco Scutaro knocked in the lone run for the Red Sox, who have dropped five of their last seven.
John Lackey (12-9) took the loss after yielding four hits and three runs (one earned) over seven frames. He struck out seven in defeat.
Chicago struck for two runs in the seventh and took the lead for good, as Teahen singled before Quentin doubled him in and moved to third on a wild throw from Red Sox center fielder Ryan Kalish. Castro then lofted a fly to right for a 3-1 game.
Boston put two runners on against Chris Sale in the eighth, but Bobby Jenks induced an inning-ending fly out by Darnell McDonald.
Jenks then set the side down in order in the ninth to earn his 27th save -- having locked up both Chicago victories in the twinbill.
The visitors picked up a run in the third as Quentin tripled to lead off, then scored when Red Sox catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia dropped a throw from Scutaro at the plate with one out.
Boston wasted a one-out double from Bill Hall in the home half, then Lackey worked out of a bases-loaded, two-out jam in the fourth by getting Castro looking at strike three.
The Red Sox broke through in the fifth as Kalish walked, Hall singled and Scutaro chased Kalish home with a base hit.
