White Sox starter Jose Quintana had a no-hitter into the seventh before running into trouble, but Boston could not capitalize on a bases loaded situation and dropped the second game.

05/22/13:  Red Sox 6 (28-19) White Sox 2
Clay Buchholz was sharp and finally won his seventh game of the season.  The offense got a boost in the later innings and Boston was able to pull away and put this in the win column.

DAVID ORTIZ:  2 for 5, run, 2 RBIs, stolen base
