Tim Wakefield was credited with his second straight complete game Wednesday as the Red Sox beat the Twins 9-1 in seven innings in the first game of a doubleheader.
The game was called due to rain after the Red Sox scored four times in the seventh. The scheduled night game between the two teams is still on for now, but it's possible it will be postponed and played tomorrow, which had been a scheduled off day. Wakefield, who took a no-hitter into the eighth in his previous start, allowed one run and five hits today. The complete game was his 32nd, breaking a tie with Bartolo Colon and Jamie Moyer and putting him into seventh place on the active list. He was 13th at the end of last year, but Greg Maddux, Curt Schilling, Mike Mussina and Kenny Rogers all retired.
