Lee wins second game as Red Sox beat Angels
Bill Lee allowed seven hits and two earned runs through seven innings as Boston defeated California 7-3. Lee, coming off a long injury layoff, said his goal was to improve and stay healthy, while Nolan Ryan suffered the loss despite early strikeouts. The Red Sox seized a six-run sixth inning to pull away, with Yastrzemski hitting his 17th homer and Jim Rice delivering a two-run single. The victory marked Lee’s first starting win since August 24, 1975, after injury in May.
