Orioles Earn 7-6 Win Versus Red Sox
The Boston Red Sox and Baltimore Orioles provided some drama for the home crowd.

The Baltimore Orioles did just enough to secure a victory over the Boston Red Sox, 7-6, at Fenway Park. Nobody did more than pitcher Taijuan Walker. Baltimore now sits at 55-56, while Boston falls to 58-53.

Baltimore used the timely hitting of Christian Yelich to seize the win. The left fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 17th inning to put the Orioles on top, 7-6. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"It was offense that won us the game," said winning manager Jackson Melian.
