Orioles Beat Red Sox, 4-2
The Baltimore Orioles stopped the Boston Red Sox, 4-2, behind an impressive performance from Josh Donaldson. The fan favorite made life miserable for Boston pitching. He was 2-3 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 3 times. The winner was Alex Cobb, who threw 88 pitches over 6.1 innings. The right-hander was charged with 1 run on 3 hits. Carlos Fisher was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 17 of 20 save opportunities.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for David Wright? The Baltimore first baseman had a run-scoring single in the top of the sixth inning to put the Orioles on top, 3-1. For the game, Wright had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"We'll enjoy this win for now, but it's just one," Wright told local reporters. "We've got to keep it going."

After today's action, Baltimore sits at 81-69, while Boston falls to 76-76.
