Rico Petrocelli and Rick Burleson each singled in two runs and Jim Rice contributed a homer as the Red Sox defeated the Angels, 5-2. After Rice's round-tripper in the fourth inning, the Red Sox loaded the bases in the sixth on two walks and a single by Carl Yastrzemskl, paving the way for Petrocelli's two-run hit. Burleson batted in a pair after the Red Sox loaded the bases again in the ninth. [The Sporting News]
