Game Notes
Red Sox get a 6-3 win over the Orioles, as Manny Ramirez gets his milestone 500th career HR.
Ramirez drives Chad Bradford's pitch into the rightfield seats for a 5-3 lead in the 7th inning, becoming the 24th MLB hitter to reach the 500-homer plateau. It was Bradford's 1st pitch after entering following David Ortiz' Sac Fly that broke a 3-3 tie. Ortiz had homered earlier.
Ramirez's blast was Boston's 3rd of the game, as Dustin Pedroia homered in the 3rd ahead of Ortiz's shot that tied the game 2-2. Baltimore regained the lead on Brian Roberts' solo HR in the 5th.

Red Sox - Jon Lester
