Shane Victorino lined a three-run double off rookie Michael Wacha and the Boston Red Sox tried to close in on the World Series championship, leading the St. Louis Cardinals 3-0 through three innings Wednesday night in Game 6. They knew what was at stake - Boston was hoping to celebrate a championship on its own field for the first time since 1918. John Lackey pitched shutout ball early and, with Boston holding a 3-2 edge in the best-of-seven series, Victorino sent the crowd into a frenzy with his two-out drive off the top of the Green Monster. He thumped his chest three times after pulling into third while Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina argued with plate umpire Jim Joyce, claiming he had tagged Jonny Gomes.
