Ortiz’s slam helps Red Sox rip Rangers

Texas Rangers, including manager Ron Washington, left, watch from the dugout rail while trailing the Boston Red Sox 11-3 in the ninth inning of their MLB baseball game in Boston, Friday, April 18, 2008. The Red Sox won 11-3.

One swing by Big Papi brought relief to many at Fenway Park. Slumping David Ortiz hit a grand slam, his eighth of his career, and went 2-for-4 with five RBIs to lead the Red Sox to an 11-3 win over the Texas Rangers on Friday night. “I’m sure he’s going to feel good about it,” Boston manager Terry Francona said.
