Will they ever Vern ? Boston goes up 2 games to 1

[GAME 3 - Fenway Park - BOS 5, LAA 4] - Red Sox lead series 2-1
The Angels drew first blood in the opening stanza when Cabrera doubled and Garrett Anderson singled him home with a clutch two out knock off of Joe Dobson. Boston struck back with 2 in the second when Billy Goodman and Dom DiMaggio had clutch 2 out RBI singles as well. The Halos went up 3-2 by posting 2 in the 4th when Bengie Molina and Adam Kennedy had RBI singles. Not to be outdone the Bosox touched Angel starter John "hard luck" Lackey for 3 runs to take a 5-3 lead. Vern Stephens, who time and time again has had to hit after Williams has walked, had a 2 out single to plate Goodman and DiMaggio. Doerr followed it up with an RBI single to score Williams who was again intentionally passed. The Angels made it interesting by scoring a run in the 7th. Mel Parnell was brought on to get the final 2 outs in the 9th and he did just that by fanning Figgins and pinch hitter Jerry DaVanon.
