The Dodgers used a five-man infield against the Red Sox. Too bad they weren?t allowed to put a player or two in the Los Angeles Coliseum stands.
Kevin Cash and Kevin Youkilis hit cheap homers off Esteban Loaiza to account for five runs in the first three innings, and the Red Sox beat the Dodgers 7-4 Saturday night before an announced crowd of 115,300?largest ever to watch a baseball game, as reported by the Associated Press.

J.D. Drew probably won't be in the lineup for the Red Sox on Friday night when the team travels to Dodger Stadium, according to the Boston Globe.
Drew sat out the two games Boston played against Oakland overseas earlier this week, so he probably won't take the field as the team returns to finish their exhibition schedule in Los Angeles.
"I would like to get some at-bats at some point this weekend, but I want to make sure everything is good and sturdy in there before I go out and start taking some hacks," Drew said on Thursday.
"My ultimate goal is to be ready for the first game in Oakland," he added.
