Red Sox beat Orioles 6-4 to win 3-game series (AP)

The Boston Red Sox put a satisfactory finish on a potentially disastrous road trip. Adrian Beltre homered to spark a five-run second inning, and the Red Sox beat the Baltimore Orioles 6-4 on Thursday night to win the three-game series. David Ortiz drove in two runs and J.D. Drew had three hits for the Red Sox, who moved within 6 1/2 games of idle Tampa Bay in the AL wild-card race.
