-- J.D. Drew's hitting streak was snapped at 11 games. Drew, who had pretty much been carrying the Sox offensively during his streak, went 0 for 4, including three strikeouts.
-- Justin Masterson has thrown at least six innings in each of his first five starts in the majors, the seventh Red Sox pitcher since 1965 to be able to make that boast.
-- Dustin Pedroia, who was 2 for 26 on the homestand, went 1 for 4, a one-out single to right off Cincinnati closer Francisco Cordero in the ninth.
-- Jacoby Ellsbury has hit safely in each of his four games since missing three starts because of a jammed right wrist. But he has had only one hit in each of those games, going 4 for 18 over that stretch. His hit last night was a double. He was robbed of another, most likely another double, on a superb defensive play by first baseman Joey Votto.
-- The Red Sox are only 4-11 in their last 15 road games.
