#NABA Red Sox at Orioles: Jim O'Toole was greeted rudely by the Sox in the 1st: Dick Chutney whistled it past the mound for a single to score Carney Lansford, and Legend Elms followed with a triple into the left field corner, scoring Chutney and Chet Lemon. Boston would add two more in the 3rd on a Chutney home run - and for good measure, he gunned down Charleston at the plate in the other half of the frame to keep the score 5-0.

The O's chipped away. Pat Patterson's single brought in Charboneau in the 4th, and Orestes Cateyano tripled in the 5th, bringing in Charleston and leading the Sox to pinch-hit for Adam Wainwright at the bottom of the next frame. Lemon made it 6-2, however, against Loek van Mil in the next frame with a double past a diving Maximo Saavedra, getting his first start at third.

But Arnie Portocarrero, on with 1 out in the 7th for Boston, simply could not find the plate. Gibson and Cateyano walked, Charboneau and Patterson doubled, and Mack Selson brought one in on a sac fly before LaTroy Hawkins came in to set Brett Phillips down. Tie ballgame at 6!

Jameis Winston was in a jam in the 9th, as Sandy Sanderson stole second with two outs and went to third on Lemon's scratch single, but on a 1-0 count, Saavedra, now at short, cut off Chutney's grounder and stamped on second to end the frame.

Rogelio Cruz, with 3 saves but 2 blown saves, came out for the bottom of the 9th...and Cateyano promptly singled. One out later, Saavedra, already 2-2 with 2 BBs on the day, unselfishly dropped a bunt - and watched roll over the third-base line. A second attempt popped over his head - Joe Garagiola lunged, but just missed it. Working the count against Cruz to 2-2, Saavedra instead took a full swing at it...lashing an opposite field frozen rope to deep right. del Rosa back...he leaps...IT'S GONE!

Orioles win at the Yards 8-6, to go to 12-1 on the year, and I still swear I'm not cooking this.
