Red Sox swat four homers, halt Phils' win streak


redsox.com:  PHILADELPHIA -- Citizens Bank Park has long played like an American League park, and the Red Sox hit four more home runs Saturday in a 7-5 win over the Phillies. That gave Boston seven through the first two games of the series, which the teams have split.
"We're a good-hitting team," said catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia, who singled, doubled and homered a night after receiving 12 stitches in his left ear. "They're a really good pitching staff. It can go either way just as easy as that. We swung the bats well and didn't miss any pitches and just kept going."
They can play some National League-ball, too, those Red Sox. They turned in some of their finest defensive work of the season, even with their regular designated hitter at first base and their first baseman at right field.
