Homers by Jim Rice and Rich Gedman sparked a seven-run sixth inning that powered the Red Sox to a 7-2 victory over the Angels, California's sixth straight defeat. Rice opened the big inning with his circuit clout and Gedman delivered a three-run round-tripper with one out. The final runs of the outburst came when Jerry Remy bounced into a run-scoring forceout and Carl Yastrzemski drilled a two-run single. [The Sporting News]
