BALTIMORE ORIOLES AT BOSTON RED SOX

Baltimore Orioles (75-83) 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 2 8 0

Orioles Come Back Late to Top Red Sox, 2-0
Fenway Park was the site of a true pitchers' duel.

Right-hander Rich Hand mesmerized the Boston Red Sox while leading the Baltimore Orioles to a 2-0 victory. Hand went 7.1 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 0, and struck out 5. His record improves to 11-9. Gary Lucas closed the door for Baltimore, picking up his 11th save of the year.

Had Ken Singleton not delivered a key base hit in the top of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Singleton hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 1-0, in favor of the Orioles.

"I just tried to attack the bottom of the zone," Hand said.

The Orioles saw their win-loss record go to 75-83. At the same time, the Red Sox fell to 93-64.
