Game story: Sox follow formula in 3-2 win over Orioles »
September 9, 2007
BALTIMORE -- Coco Crisp's two-out single in the top of the eighth inning drove in J.D. Drew from second base and lifted the Red Sox to a 3-2 win over the Orioles on Sunday afternoon at Camden Yards.
Josh Beckett pitched seven innings for the victory, his major-league-high 18th. Hideki Okajima pitched a perfect eighth and Jonathan Papelbon finished up for his 35th save. The 35 saves equals the number Papelbon had as a rookie in 2006.
Mike Lowell had given the Red Sox a 2-0 lead with a two-run, two-out single in the top of the third. The Orioles tied the game with solo home runs from Melvin Mora in the fourth and Nick Markakis in the sixth.
