(NECN) - Kevin Youkilis hit a walk off two-out RBI single to lift the Red Sox to a 1-0 win over the Toronto Blue Jays.
Youk was 2-4 with a stolen base, and the game's lone RBI.
Jonathan Papelbon pitched a scoreless ninth inning to earn the win. Jon Lester, the game's starter, allowed just one hit and four walks over eight innings. Lester had six strikeouts on the night.
Roy Halladay pitched a full frame for a complete game loss. He got two quick outs in the ninth before walking slugger David Ortiz. Manny Ramirez followed Big Papi with a single, and Youkilis brought him home.
