Sox up 3-1, Masterson allows homer
Justin Masterson is in line for the win, so far, with Boston leading 3-1 (RBI doubles by Coco Crisp and Kevin Cash padded the lead in the bottom of the fourth.
In the top of the fifth, Mike Napoli led off with a home run to center, on a 1-1 sinker.
Erick Aybar grounded out. Chone Figgins struck out, swinging at a slider. Gary Matthews grounded out.
Masterson threw 13 pitches/8 strikes. He's at 80 pitches. No one is warming up in the bullpen, so maybe Masterson has one more frame left in him.
