Jarrod Saltalamacchia ignited the Pawtucket offense with a three run homer in the first inning. Lars Anderson added a pair of rbi singles and Bubba Bell knocked in the other PawSox run. Eric Patterson had a double and triple, a stolen base and he scored three runs. Josh Reddick singled in the ninth to extend his personal hitting streak to 7 games.
