BOSTON, Aug. 14 (UPI) -- David Ortiz highlighted a nine-run second inning with a three-run homer Thursday and the Boston Red Sox belted Texas 10-0 to complete a three-game sweep.
Seven others had one RBI apiece for Boston. Jed Lowrie and Dustin Pedroia had three hits each and Kevin Youkilis added two for the Red Sox, who remained 3 ½ games back of AL East-leading Tampa Bay.
The Rays recorded a 7-6 12-inning victory against Oakland Thursday.

Michael Young had two of the six hits for the Rangers, who have dropped eight of nine.
Losing pitcher Tommy Hunter (0-2), making his third major league start in place of the injured Vicente Padilla (back and shoulder ailments), surrendered nine runs -- seven earned -- and seven hits in 1 2/3 innings.
