06/11/2007 - Phoenix, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Eric Byrnes went 3-for-5 with a double as Arizona avoided a three-game sweep with a 5-1 victory over Boston at Chase Field.
Veteran left-hander Randy Johnson started on the mound for Arizona and gave up just one run on four hits while striking out nine and walking three in six frames. Johnson (4-2) now has four victories in his last five starts.
"To get alot of strikeouts early in the game, your pitch total adds up really quick," Johnson said. "As the game got a little deeper, the fourth, fifth inning, I got a few more ground balls. The first couple of innings you set the tone, and kind of get in the groove of things."
Chris Young, Stephen Drew and Carlos Quentin each knocked in a run for the Diamondbacks, who ended a three-game slide.
Daisuke Matsuzaka (7-5) started for Boston and went six innings, allowing two runs on four hits. The rookie right-hander also fanned nine and walked four in the loss.
"He (Matsuzaka) pitched his heart out, they made him work," said Boston manager Terry Francona. "I thought we made Randy (Johnson) work."
Mike Lowell knocked in the lone run for the Red Sox, who were looking to win their four straight contest.
After three scoreless innings, the Red Sox took a 1-0 lead in the fourth after Lowell doubled home Manny Ramirez, who walked to lead off the frame.
It was all Arizona the rest of the way as the D-Backs answered in the home half of the fourth and tied things at 1-1 after Drew's run-scoring single to center plated Orlando Hudson.
The score remained tied until the sixth, when Arizona went up 2-1 after Quentin doubled home Conor Jackson, who drew a walk to start the inning.
In the eighth, the Diamondbacks tacked on three more runs to take a four-run lead. Jackson singled to start things and Drew walked off Javier Lopez. Mike Timlin then entered the contest and Quentin laid down a bunt. On the play, Timlin's throw to first sailed over Kevin Youkilis' head allowing two runs to cross the plate. With two outs, Arizona made it 5-1 after Young's RBI single.
Game Notes
Drew has 26 RBI on the season while Quentin and Young each have 23...Arizona finished with seven hits while Boston ended with six...Matsuzaka has lost his last three starts...The Red Sox committed three errors...Both clubs left 10 runners on base.

MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.
NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.
Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.
Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
