Kevin Harvick will swap two pit crew members with Stewart-Haas Racing teammate Danica Patrick after a subpar performance Sunday at Darlington Raceway.Danica Patrick front tire changer Eric Maycroft and front tire carrier Matt Holzbaur will move to Harvick starting this weekend at Richmond International Raceway, while former Harvick front tire changer Tim Sheets and front tire carrier Todd Drakulich will move to Patricks pit crew.The decision was made Wednesday by SHR officials and reflected on the Harvick team roster released to media Wednesday night.Harvick was critical of his SHR pit crews performance following a second-place finish Sunday at Darlington. He lost the lead twice thanks to slow pit stops, including one in which an air gun malfunction resulted in him going from first to 12th.This isnt the first time Harvick has had an in-season change in pit crews. In 2014, the pit crew of Tony Stewart was swapped with that of Harvick prior to the Chase for the Sprint Cup, giving Harvick the 2011 championship-winning Stewart pit crew for his 2014 title run. Drakulich was a member of that two-time Cup championship-winning crew, as are current Harvick rear tire changer Daniel Smith and rear tire carrier Mike Morneau.Im over being a cheerleader, Harvick said Sunday night. Those guys get paid a lot of money to perform on pit road, and cheerleading hasnt really been working. Youve got to get after it on pit road and do your job.Teams dont release pit-crew salaries. A pit crew member who sued Michael Waltrip Racing last year had a contract that paid him $160,000 a year -- $110,000 to work and train with the pit crew and $50,000 for other duties as a team employee. SAN FRANCISCO - Jon Lester pitched into the ninth for his first victory in four tries this month, and the AL East-leading Boston Red Sox beat the San Francisco Giants 7-0 on Monday night after flying cross-country earlier in the day. Stephen Drew and Jarrod Saltalamacchia hit RBI doubles, Shane Victorino added an RBI single and Will Middlebrooks had a sacrifice fly for Boston. The Red Sox chose to travel first thing Monday rather than late Sunday night after a 9-6 loss to the Yankees at Fenway Park. Lester (11-7) allowed six hits, struck out three and walked two in Bostons seventh shutout. He outpitched two-time NL Cy Young Award winner Tim Lincecum (6-13) to snap a three-start winless stretch since a victory at Baltimore on July 28. Lester gave way to Brandon Workman after allowing a pair of one-out singles in the ninth. Lincecum was done after five-plus innings and lost for the fourth time in his last five decisions. Two of his four walks were intentional free passes to Middlebrooks. Giants pitchers had a balk, wild pitch and hit batsman in the same home game for the first time since April 10, 2010, against Atlanta. The two clubs faced off for just their fourth series and first since Boston took two of three at AT&T Park in an injury-plagued stop. In a lengthy tribute to the Boston Marathon bombing victims before the game, players from both sides walked out of their dugouts and stood on their respective baselines in a show of solidarity and support. Lester retired the first nine Giants in order before Andres Torres lined a single to left leading off the fourth. The Boston left-hander tossed a complete game in his lone other start against San Francisco, a five-hitter on June 27, 2010, at AT&T Park. He nearly did it again. Boston staked Lester to an earrly lead with three runs in the second — showing no signs of being weary from a 4-hour, 12-minute game Sunday night and then the travel.dddddddddddd Will Middlebrooks hit a sacrifice fly and a balk by Lincecum forced in another run. Torres also singled in the sixth and eighth innings to finish with three of San Franciscos six hits and his first multihit game since June 29 at Colorado. The Giants were blanked for the 10th time. Red Sox slugger David Ortiz went 0 for 5 with two strikeouts. Dustin Pedroia hit a ninth-inning triple and scored on Saltalamacchias two-out double. Boston manager John Farrell reiterated he didnt think Ryan Dempster hit Alex Rodriguez on purpose a night earlier — and Farrell doesnt foresee any punishment from Major League Baseball. "I dont expect them to do anything," he said. "My view is that it was not intentional." Notes: A moment of silence and a video slideshow of still photos were held before the national anthem.
