AL: BALTIMORE (59-75) at BOSTON (81-55) <h3>After no-hitter, Red Sox look to close out Orioles</h3> Baltimore (59-75) at Boston (81-55), 2:05 pm EDT BOSTON (Ticker) - The Boston Red Sox will look to ride themomentum of rookie Clay Buchholz's no-hitter into Sunday whenthey wrap up their three-game series against the BaltimoreOrioles. Buchholz joined Wilson Alvarez as the only other pitcher tothrow a no-hitter in his second major league start as the RedSox routed the Orioles, 10-0, on Saturday. The 23-year-oldrighthander was the first Red Sox rookie to accomplish the featand first pitcher since Derek Lowe in 2002 to throw a no-hitterfor Boston. The Red Sox remain five games in front of the New York Yankees(76-60) in the American League East Division. Jon Lester (2-0, 5.67 ERA) will start for the Red Sox afterreturning from a short stint for Class AA Portland. Lester wonhis last start, 8-6, on August 21, over the Tampa Bay DevilRays. However, the lefthander struggled with his control,allowing five runs on four hits while walking four in 5 1/3innings. Daniel Cabrera (9-13, 5.08), who is on pace to lead the majorsin walks for a second consecutive season, will toe the rubberfor the Orioles. Cabrera struggled with his control again in his last start,walking four over six innings, but pitched well enough to win.The 26-year-old righthander allowed three runs on five hits, butdid not factor in the decision, as Baltimore lost, 15-8, to theDevil Rays on Tuesday.
