Boston, MA (Sports Network) - Jon Lester pitched into the eighth inning, and Kevin Youkilis hit three doubles and drove in two, as Boston upended Texas, 8-4, in the second of three games with the Rangers. Dallas Cowboys Jersey . The Red Sox needed lots of offense to win a wild, 19-17 contest in Tuesdays series opener. But Lester (11-4) buoyed Boston on Wednesday, as he allowed three runs on seven hits, with one walk and six strikeouts, in 7 1/3 innings. He has thrown at least seven innings in each of his past seven starts, and won four of his past five outings. "I thought he was tremendous," Red Sox manager Terry Francona said of Lester. "I thought he had power on his two-seamer and his cutter..We set out to get a win and we did that. We made it a little more interesting than we needed to, but I thought his stuff was really good. We scored early and we added on." Jason Bay and Jed Lowrie each finished 2-for-3 with two RBI for the Red Sox, who won their third in a row, despite not having third baseman Mike Lowell. He was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right oblique muscle on Wednesday, after leaving in the seventh inning of Tuesdays matchup. Luis Mendoza (3-6) gave up eight runs -- seven earned -- on nine hits in four- plus frames to absorb the loss for the Rangers, <a href="http://wk.putianb2b.com/"><strong>北京兼职 </strong></a> who have lost six of seven. Milton Bradley hit a three-run homer, while Ian Kinsler added a solo shot for Texas. Outfielder Josh Hamilton was 0-for-3 before leaving to fly back to Texas in order to be with his wife, who went into labor. "Like I always say, you play nine innings, and we did tonight," Rangers manager Ron Washington said. "(Mendoza) just didnt have it. I was hoping that he could keep us in the ballgame, but when you spot those guys those kind of runs, last night we were able to make it up but tonight you cant keep expecting to try to make that up. It was just one of those nights again." Youkilis got Boston started in the second inning with a leadoff double. Bay followed with a single to put runners on the corners, then stole second. <a href="http://wk.putianb2b.com/"><strong>威客平台 </strong></a> Catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchias throwing error allowed Youkilis to race home, while a Sean Casey groundout later in the inning plated Bay for a 2-0 edge. Boston added four more runs in the third to take a firm lead. Coco Crisp led off with a single, and two batters later Dustin Pedroia doubled. David Ortiz was intentionally walked to load the bases for Youkilis, who smoked a double down the third base line to score two. Bay then roped a double to left-center field to bring in two more runs, and increase Bostons lead to 6-0. Lowries two-run double in the fifth gave the Red Sox an eight-run cushion, as Lester shut down the Rangers bats for the first seven innings. In the eighth, however, the Red Sox starter ran into trouble. Kinslers one-out solo homer got Texas on the scoreboard, while Michael Young and Jason Ellison followed with singles. That ended Lesters day, as Mike Timlin entered. But Bradley greeted the Boston reliever by crushing the ball beyond the right field wall, bringing Texas within 8-4. Javier Lopez eventually came on to get the Red Sox out of the inning without further damage. Justin Masterson started the ninth for Boston, and gave up a leadoff double to Saltalamacchia before walking Travis Metcalf. However, he induced a Kinsler double play before getting Young to foul out to end the game. Game Notes In his last 11 games, Youkilis is hitting .409 with six doubles, four homers and 13 RBI..After placing Lowell on the DL, Boston recalled pitcher David Pauley from Triple-A Pawtucket to fill the roster spot.
