The Boston Red Sox showed up at Oriole Park on Monday with sole possession of first place in the American League East.
Then they showed why.
Knucklerballer Steven Wright tied the Orioles in knots for all nine innings and the Red Sox scored four times in the seventh inning on the way to a 7-2 victory that extended their division lead over the Orioles to two games.
Orioles starter Tyler Wilson delivered a quality start, allowing three earned runs over 6 2/3 innings, but allowed a tie-breaking home run to Jackie Bradley Jr.
