The Red Sox loaded the bases with no outs on two singles and a walk, but they only scored once to tie the game.
Jeremy Guthrie's pitch count is up to 46, including 27 strikes.
Boston tied the game on Yamaico Navarro's chopper to third. Miguel Tejada ranged to his left and made a leaping stab before spinning and firing to first. Aaron Bates walked on a full count to load the bases again, but Jacoby Ellsbury popped to third.
J.D. Drew lined to right fielder Nick Markakis, and Guthrie made it...
The Orioles let Jeremy Guthrie face one batter in the third, and he retired Victor Martinez on a fly ball to center.
Guthrie is charged with one run and three hits in 2 1/3 innings, with two walks and two strikeouts. He threw 51 pitches, 29 for strikes.
Left-hander Chris George has replaced Guthrie.
The Orioles wanted Guthrie to get up one more time, which explains why he came out for the third.
Mark Hendrickson tossed a perfect fourth inning, getting two fly balls and a sparkling defensive play from second baseman Miguel Abreu.
Abreu made a diving stop and throw to retire Tug Hulett. He pumped his fist as the out was recorded, took the return throw from first baseman Garrett Atkins and whipped the ball into the Red Sox's dugout.
You can't give him an error on that one.
Luke Scott singled with two outs in the third, but Atkins struck out. The Orioles went down in order in the...
Miguel Abreu singled in the sixth inning, stole second and scored on Pedro Florimon's double.
Orioles 4, Red Sox 1.
Nice day for Abreu.
I'll pass along some comments from Jeremy Guthrie:
"I threw a lot of good pitches, I felt like that second inning, the umpire (John Hirschbeck) was back and forth. It was a strike one time, it was a ball another time. Matt (Wieters) said two or three of those pitches called balls were strikes, including that first walk to that lefty (Tug Hulett). But I...
Armando Gabino gave up three runs in the top of the eighth inning and retired only one batter before manager Dave Trembley went to his bullpen again. Both teams have four runs and nine hits.
David Hernandez has replaced Gabino, who came off the 40-man roster when the Orioles signed Mark Hendrickson.
Angel Sanchez hit a two-run triple off Gabino.
Update: Hernandez got the last two outs, including a strikeout.
Today's crowd of 8,088 is the largest in Ed Smith Stadium history for a baseball...
David Hernandez struck out the first two batters in the top of the ninth and got ahead of Mark Wagner, 1-2.
Then it all went horribly wrong.
Wagner reached out for a pitch and somehow drove the ball over the left field fence to give Boston a 5-4 lead.
It wasn't a classic swing, but it worked.
A wind-aided home run by catcher Mark Wagner in the ninth inning gave the Boston Red Sox a 5-4 win over the Orioles.
David Hernandez took the loss.
"His fastball was good," manager Dave Trembley said. "He got beat on his changeup."
Trembley also praised Kam Mickolio and noted that starter Jeremy Guthrie "didn't have much feel for his secondary pitches. That's why he got his pitch count up. But there was some improvement."
Second baseman Miguel Abreu made a nice impression today at...

Justin Turner says his left foot feels "a lot better," but it's still heavily taped. He'll get a better read on his condition during batting practice - and if he can avoid the line drives.
Brad Bergesen is scheduled to throw two innings or 35 pitches on Wednesday.
"I feel good," he said.
"The rehab and the progression has gone to their standards. I didn't know exactly how it would work, what they'd want me to do, but that's the plan - 35 pitches, two innings. I'm happy about...
The Orioles will try to get 50 pitches out of Brian Matusz today, and he's expected to expand his selection after staying away from the curveball in his debut.
Nolan Reimold will start in left field tomorrow.
Justin Turner is expected to play tomorrow.
Kevin Millwood turned in a quality side session today, according to manager Dave Trembley.
Luke Scott will get another start at first base this week, perhaps on Wednesday. He'll take tomorrow off.
