Red Sox 14, Padres 5:Not a prayer for Padres

BOSTON — Facing his former team was just another game for Adrian Gonzalez. His current team's 10-run inning was something special. Gonzalez drove in three runs Monday night with a single and double in the big seventh inning and the hot-hitting Boston Red Sox rolled to a 14-5 victory over the struggling San Diego Padres. "I had fun with it. I have fun out there every day," said Gonzalez, who leads the majors with 67 RBI and a .353 batting average. "It was good to see them before the game and catch up with them, but once the game started it was all about playing the game." The Red Sox have been playing better than any other team the past 2½ weeks. They are 14-2 since June 3. They scored at least 10 runs for the fifth time in nine games and lead the majors with a .277 batting average.
