After dropping the first two games of this set, the Hens rallied back to win on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. However, the Red Sox stormed back from behind on Sunday to split the series.
On Friday, Bryan Sammons led the way, tossing four innings of one run ball. Jack Anderson took over from there and blanked the Sox for 2 2⁄3 innings to set the Hens up for success.
They struck first, with Justice Bigbie singled in Eddys Leonard in the top of the second inning. In the fifth, Ryan Vilade doubled and scored on an Akil Baddoo double to right field to make it 2-0.
