The Red Sox beat the Atlanta Braves Saturday afternoon in a close 1-0 pitchers' duel. For the Braves, Javier Vazquez allowed just one run and struck out 8 in 7 2/3 innings, but took the loss as Tim Wakefield pitched 6 shutout innings to gain his 10th win of the season. That ties him Toronto's Roy Halladay and Minnesota's Kevin Slowey for the major league lead in wins. That raises the possibility that the 42 year old Wakefield could make the All-Star team for the first time in his career. He has certainly pitched well enough to gain that honor, but whether there will be an available spot for him on the AL roster remains to be seen.
Next Game: Sunday 1:35, @ Atlanta Braves
