Orioles Lose Late, 10-6
The Baltimore Orioles inaugurated the 2009 campaign with a disappointing 10-6 loss to the Boston Red Sox at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Boston catcher Chris Shelton had a big impact on the outcome. He went 2-5 with a home run and a double, while adding 5 RBI and scoring once. Luis Pineda came out of the bullpen to earn the win. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings. His record now stands at 1-0.

Shelton had a game-changing home run in the top of the ninth. On a 2-1 fastball from Joe McFarlane, he banged a grand slam home run to left, giving the Red Sox a 10-6 lead. It was the 1st home run of the year for Shelton.

"We'll grab a cold beverage tonight and go after another win tomorrow," Shelton said.
