Red Sox 6, Orioles 2
BALTIMORE — Jon Lester improved to 14-0 all-time against the Orioles with eight strong innings, Dustin Pedroia hit a tiebreaking infield single and the Red Sox averted a three-game sweep. After Derrek Lee's RBI single in the first, Lester didn't allow another hit until Vladimir Guerrero's homer in the sixth. Carl Crawford, who led off the seventh with a double, scored when third baseman Mark Reynolds bobbled Pedroia's slow roller.
