Red Sox walk off with a late victory

BOSTON — Pinch-runner Jarrod Saltalamacchia dived across home plate to score the winning run on Jacoby Ellsbury's single in the ninth inning and the Boston Red Sox beat the Cleveland Indians 3-2 on a rainy Tuesday night. Jason Varitek singled with one out in the ninth against Vinnie Pestano (1-1) and Saltalamacchia ran for him. Josh Reddick followed with a single that sent Saltalamacchia to second. Ellsbury then singled, setting up the play at the plate. Center fielder Eziquiel Cabrera threw home and catcher Carlos Santana caught the ball wide of the plate, but Saltalamacchia won the race and scored.

Upon further review:Indians 9, Red Sox 6

BOSTON — Cleveland Manager Manny Acta's pregame lesson about Fenway Park's quirky angles and dimensions certainly couldn't cover what Asdrubal Cabrera's homer did. Cabrera's second two-run homer of the game, originally ruled a single off the short wall in right field and overturned by replay review, broke an eighth-inning tie and lifted the Indians to a 9-6 win over the Boston Red Sox on Monday night. "It might be the only park," Cabrera said when asked if he thought his homer would have been out in any other ballpark. Travis Hafner homered after Cabrera's first of the game as the Indians won for just the third time in their last 11 games.
