AL: BOSTON (37-19) at OAKLAND (29-27) <h3>Matsuzaka looks to get back on track vs. A's</h3> <div class="pre">Boston (37-19) at Oakland (29-27) 10:05 pm EDT</div> <div class="pre">OAKLAND, California (Ticker) - The Boston Red Sox's $103</div>million man has been going through some growing pains lately. Daisuke Matsuzaka (7-3, 4.83 ERA) will look to get back on trackTuesday when the Red Sox visit the Oakland Athletics. The Japanese righthander followed up a rough outing at Texas onMay 25 with his first loss since April 17 last Wednesday againstCleveland. Matsuzaka went 1-1 while yielding 11 runs in 10 2/3combined innings in the two starts. Prior to his start in Texas, Dice-K had run off a string ofthree straight starts where he had lasted at least seven inningsand surrendered a total of five runs. The A's will counter with former Boston hurler Lenny DiNardo(1-2, 1.80). The lefthander is going through a careerresurgence in Oakland after being released by the Red Sox earlyin spring training. DiNardo started the season in the bullpen, but made his firststart last Tuesday, allowing four runs - one earned - over 5 1/3innings in a loss to the Texas Rangers. He spent the past three seasons with Boston, riding the shuttlebetween Class AAA Pawtucket and the big club during each year.DiNardo appeared in 43 games for the Red Sox, going 1-2 inmostly a long-relief role. The A's took the first game of the series, 5-4, in 11 innings onMonday, giving them six wins in their last seven meetings withBoston.
