Blue Jays 8, Sox 4

It wasn't a good start for David Wells. Boomer was boomed -- and booed -- early and often Wednesday night, giving up five runs and eight hits, including homers to Alex Rios and Bengie Molina, in the first two innings en route to a 10-hit, 7-run line in four-plus innings of work.

David Oritz continues to tear the cover off the ball, doubling in the third and smashing a homer in the fifth. Dustan Mohr and Wily Mo Pena also went deep, helping the Sox to score four runs on a night when Kevin Youkilis, Mark Loretta, Manny Ramirez, Jason Varitek and Alex Gonzalez went hitless. Doubles machine Mike Lowell hit his fifth two-bagger of the season in the second inning.

Youkilis didn't exactly make a case for himself as a leadoff hitter, going 0-for-5 with three strikeouts. Fortunately, that's not his normal spot in the order. Manny continued to struggle, but is bound to heat up soon.

Tonight Matt Clement (1-0) faces Ted Lilly, who got a no-decision in his last outing, against Tampa, when he walked six and gave up four runs in 2.1 innings. Clement gave up four runs and struck out seven in seven innings in a win against Baltimore on April 7.
