Stephen Drew hit a three-run home run in the ninth inning to give the Red Sox a 7-5 win over the Astros on Wednesday.
Drew had extended his now-eight-game hitting streak with a single earlier in the night, but the biggest hit came off Astros de facto closer Josh Fields. The homer was Drew's ninth of the year, and the three runs driven in gave him 44 RBI. With Jose Iglesias now in Detroit, Drew has no competition for playing time at short.
