BOSTON—Alexei Ramirez tied his career high with four hits, and Philip Humber stymied Boston for seven innings Tuesday night to lead the White Sox to a 10-7 victory over the Red Sox. It was the Southsiders sixth straight win at Fenway Park, its longest streak here since the “Go Go” Sox era of 1958-59. Humber (4-3) scattered six hits in the first seven innings before giving up three more in the eighth as Boston cut the deficit to 10-5. In all, Humber was charged with four runs while walking one and striking out five in 7 2/3 innings — the first time in seven starts he has allowed more than three runs. Chris Sale came on in the ninth after Boston cut the deficit to 10-7 and struck out Adrian Gonzalez looking on three pitches earn his second save. Alfredo Aceves (2-1) lost for the first time in more than two years, allowing eight runs — six earned — on eight hits and three walks while striking out one. He had won 12 consecutive decisions for the Yankees and Red Sox in what had been the longest active streak since CC Sabathia in 2008. But the White Sox scored four runs in the second, including a two-run single by Ramirez. He also singled and scored when they scored four more in the sixth to chase Aceves and make it 10-1. Ramirez had three RBI while recording his second four-hit game in nine days. He also had the game-winning hit in the series opener Monday night, a two-run double that broke a sixth-inning tie. Gordon Beckham had three hits for the White Sox, who have won two straight against Boston after losing four of their previous five games. Despite their three-game losing streak, the Red Sox are 19-10 in May — the best record in the American League over the month. Adrian Gonzalez had 42 hits and 31 RBI in the month, the first Red Sox player to top 40 and 30 in May, respectively, since Jim Rice in his AL MVP year of 1978. Jason Varitek had three hits, including his second homer of the season. After Boston scored one more in the eighth on three hits off the Green Monster off Humber, Will Ohman relieved him and gave up a three-run homer to David Ortiz that made it 10-5. Ohman got Mike Cameron, a defensive replacement for Carl Crawford, on a fly ball to right to end the inning. The Red Sox got two more in the ninth when Jed Lowrie walked, Varitek singled and, after Josh Reddick hit a sacrifice fly, Drew Sutton hit a high flyball that right fielder Brent Lillibridge couldn’t get at the Pesky Pole.Sale came on and got Gonzalez on three straight pitches to end the game.
NOTES—Crawford was out on an odd double play in the fifth, when he tried to steal second but had to turn back when Lowrie popped it up to center. The problem: Crawford had already taken a step toward third, and he didn’t touch second on his way back. … The Red Sox moved up the starting time of Saturday’s game against the Oakland Athletics to 1:10 p.m. from 7:10 p.m. so that fans will be able to also watch the Bruins in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup finals.
