April 15, 2006 Red Sox 5, Mariners 4
| This game was nowhere near as close as the score seems. Tim Wakefield was in the groove throughout, only making one mistake - a first inning Jose Lopez homerun. Wake almost went the distance, but after allowing 2 hits with 2 out in the 9th, Mike Timlin comes in and almost singlehandedly blows the game. Adrian Beltre smashes a 3-run homer to put Seattle within 1, but Timlin got the final out and gets the undeserved save. J. T Snow got the start at first and is the unsung hero for the game, going 3 for 4 and a big 2 run double in the first inning. 8th time in 11 games so far this season that the Sox have hit double digits in hits. |

David Ortiz had 2 base hits as the Boston Red Sox defeated the floundering
Seattle Mariners by a score of 5 to 4 at Fenway Park.
Boston started with a bang, jumping out to an early lead in their half of the
first as they scored 3 runs on 3 base hits. The crucial at-bat was provided
by J.T. Snow who excited the crowd when he singled scoring two baserunners.
Seattle had a chance in the 9th but they came up short.
Tim Wakefield(1-1) went 8 and 2/3 innings allowing 3 runs for the win. Mike
Timlin earned the save, his 2nd. Joel Pineiro(1-2) was the loser. By
surrending 3 runs in 2/3 of an inning his ERA jumped from 2.57 to 4.30.
