Jason Bay and Kevin Youkilis hit two-run doubles, and the Boston Red Sox started a 10-game road trip with a 6-5 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Monday. Jonathan Papelbon survived a two-out, two-run homer in the ninth by pinch-hitter Joe Mauer to get his 12th save. Michael Cuddyer homered early for Minnesota, but Brad Penny (5-1) pitched into the sixth for his third straight victory.
