The one through five hitters in the Boston lineup reached base nine times against the White Sox Thursday night. That set up Kevin Youkilis and Jarrod Saltalamacchia for seven RBI as the 6-7 hitters combined for five hits and three home runs. The Red Sox beat up Philip Humber, who allowed nine of the runs, for eight hits in five innings.

The Red Sox have now scored 56 runs on the road in ten games, but they also allowed 54, hence the 5-5 record away from home.
