Justin Morneau paced a 15-hit attack with four hits, two homers and seven RBI, to lead the Rochester Red Wings to a 12-3 thrashing of the visiting Pawtucket Red Sox Monday night. Morneau, who went 4-for-5 in the game, is now hitting a robust .524 with two homers and 10 RBI. He capped a four-run sixth inning with his first homer of the game - a three-run shot. Two innings later, the Minnesota Twins top minor-league prospect capped the onslaught with a two-run homer. He became the first player to knock in seven runs in a game since Willis Otanez in 1998. Michael Restovich added three hits, including his first homer of the year for Rochester, which won its fifth straight game. It's the first time the Red Wings have started the season 5-0, going back to 76 years.
