Sox pull ahead on hit by Moss

TOKYO -- A run-scoring single to right by Brandon Moss with two out in the sixth inning has chased Oakland starter Joe Blanton from the mound and given the Sox a 3-2 lead, their first edge of the season.

Moss's single delivered Manny Ramirez from second. Ramirez drove a two-run double down the left field line two batters earlier, tying the game at 2-2.

Former Sox reliever Alan Embree has relieved Blanton.
