Baltimore Downed, 5-4, by Red Sox
The Baltimore Black Sox got a sterling performance from pitcher Ned Garvin, but the Memphis Red Sox still prevailed, 5-4. Garvin threw 7.0 innings of 2-hit ball. Rollie Fingers closed it out for his 3rd save. The Black Sox, now 7-20, continue their inauspicious start.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for David Ortiz? The 28-year old first baseman Ortiz stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the 12th inning to put Memphis up, 5-4. For the game, he was 2 for 5, including 1 double and 1 single.

"Bad luck's the only luck we've had," said Baltimore manager Daniel Makonnen.
