Orioles Drop Contest, 5-2, to Boston
The Boston Red Sox picked up a win at Oriole Park at Camden Yards, taking down the Baltimore Orioles, 5-2. Starting pitcher Juan Cervantes was a big reason why. The winning pitcher was Cervantes, now 15-5. He tossed 7.1 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 3 and fanning 4. Carlos Perez earned the save, his 2nd, for the Red Sox.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Jim Williamson? The 28-year old left fielder Williamson stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the seventh inning to put Boston up, 3-1. For the game, he was 2 for 5, including 1 double and 1 single.

Said losing manager Jackson Melian: "It's very easy to sit in an ivory tower and critique the pitching, but the bottom line is we need to score runs."

The Boston win streak is now 4 games.
