Trey Mancini (two homers, four RBIs) kicked off the long ball barrage with a three-run shot to center with two out in the first. Jonathan Schoop made it back-to-back homers to cap the scoring in the six-run first. Red Sox manager John Farrell gave Wright a chance to settle into the game, but the right-hander was taken deep in the second by Adam Jones and Chris Davis and was then removed from the game.
Ubaldo Jimenez was the beneficiary of all that run support and seemed in line for a sure win, but he labored and couldn't make it out of the fifth inning.
