Tim Wakefield pitched eight shutout innings for his first victory in nearly a year, and the Boston Red Sox roughed up Roy Halladay in an 8-3 win over the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park.
Kevin Youkilis tripled, homered and scored three runs for Boston.
Wakefield's knuckle ball, which averaged in the mid 60s, flustered the Phillies. He allowed five hits and two walks in earning his first win since July 8, 2009, against Oakland. Wakefield (1-2) earned his 190th career win as the Red Sox took two of three from the Phillies.
Ramon Ramirez allowed three runs in the ninth -- Raul Ibanez's RBI double and pinch-hitter Ross Gload later connected on a two-run homer.
Halladay gave up eight hits and seven runs -- six earned in 5 2-3 innings.
