Manny Machado gave the Orioles a quick 2-0 lead when he curled a two-run shot around Pesky's Pole in right in the top of the first.
From there, the two aces engaged in a crisp duel, matching zeros until the bottom of the seventh. That was when Jackie Bradley Jr. ripped a solo shot to straightaway center that had a projected distance of 430 feet, according to Statcast™.
Just as the Red Sox inched closer, the O's extended their lead back to two runs in the eighth when Jonathan Schoop hit a mammoth homer that soared over the Green Monster and on to Lansdowne Street at an estimated distance of 450 feet.
