Daisuke Matsuzaka had to battle more than the Texas Rangers lineup Friday night.
Matsuzaka left the game after five innings because of nausea. He earned his seventh win of the season anyway as the Boston Red Sox beat the Texas Rangers 10-6 Friday night.
Boston manager Terry Francona said Matsuzaka started feeling bad in the second inning and struggled through the five innings needed for him to win his fourth straight start.
''He showed a lot staying out there and pitching,'' Francona said. ''He gave us five. He gave up five but they got to our bullpen later because he was able to stay out there.''
Matsuzaka - who Francona says will have ''the most covered case of intestinal turmoil ever'' didn't come out for the sixth inning and was relieved by Kyle Snyder .
Matsuzaka (7-2) was not seen in the clubhouse after the game and he spoke only through a statement.
''I tried my best to take the team as deep into the game as possible to fulfill my responsibility as the starter,'' Matsuzaka said in the statement. ''I regret that I ended up being a burden on my teammates (Friday). I'll do my best to prepare for my next start.''
Matsuzaka gave up home runs to Frank Catalanotto and Ramon Vazquez in a five-run fourth that put the Rangers ahead 5-4.
Boston regained the lead by scoring twice in the fifth before Matsuzaka ran into more trouble in the bottom half of the frame.
He escaped by getting Sammy Sosa to ground into a double play and striking out Frank Catalanotto to end the inning.
The Red Sox added four in the sixth to lift Matsuzaka to a win in his fourth straight start.
Matsuzaka gave up five runs and seven hits and matched his shortest outing of the season. He is tied for the league lead with seven wins along with teammate Josh Beckett , the Angels' John Lackey and the Braves' John Smoltz .
Sosa faced the Japanese sensation for the first time ever and went 1-for-4 with an RBI double and a strikeout in his pursuit to become the fifth player ever to hit 600 home runs. Sosa has 598.
