Willits led off the inning with an infield single and stole second. Wakefield walked Abreu, then Hunter and Kendry Morales singled, each driving in a run. Then came the blast.
Napoli smashed the pitch over the center-field fence, as the Angels took a one-run lead. Hunter added a solo shot in the fourth inning, upping the Sox' deficit to two. With the homer, Hunter was 16 for 41 (.390) for his career against Wakefield, with a double and four home runs.
"A couple counts that I was ahead in, I gave up base hits," said Wakefield, who allowed seven runs in 4 2/3 innings. "That shouldn't happen. The offense scored four runs early, gave me a comfortable lead, and I couldn't hold it. It was one of those days, just try to grind it out and it didn't work."
