DENVER (UPI) -- Mike Lowell homered and scored a run Sunday night, as the Boston Red Sox beat Colorado, 4-3, to complete a four-game World Series sweep. After the game, Lowell was named series MVP. Bobby Kielty also homered for Boston, and Jason Varitek and David Ortiz each drove in a run. Jacob Ellsbury had two hits and scored a run for the Red Sox, who won the World Series for the second time in four years. They previously won it all in 2004. Garrett Atkins hit a two-run home run and Brad Hawpe had a solo shot to account for the Rockies' scoring.
Red Sox starter Jon Lester pitched 5 2/3 innings, holding the Rockies scoreless on three hits, with three strikeouts and three walks. Reliever Jonathan Papelbon earned the save, pitching 1 2/3 innings of no-hit ball, with one strikeout. Colorado starter Aaron Cook took the loss, giving up three runs on six hits over six innings, with two strikeouts and no walks
