BOSTON -- The Boston Red Sox were charging out of the
dugout before the winning run reached home plate. After a
10-game skid, winning sure feels good. Atlantas third
error in the last two innings allowed Jackie Bradley Jr.
to score from second as the Red Sox rallied to beat
Atlanta 4-3 on Thursday night for their fourth straight
win. "They contributed with some balls in play on the
defensive side of things," Boston manager John Farrell
said. "Just a good comeback win overall." Boston trailed
3-1 before tying it with a pair of runs in the eighth
then won it in the ninth. Bradley and Brock Holt drew
back-to-back walks off closer Craig Kimbrel (0-1). Xander
Bogaerts followed with a hard grounder to Chris Johnson
at third base for an infield single. Johnson stopped it
and made a strong throw but La Stella missed the catch
with Holt bearing down. Bradley hadnt even scored yet
when the Red Sox began rushing out of the dugout. "The
arrows pointing in the right direction," Bradley said.
Bogaerts was credited with a single and the error was
initially charged to Johnson. The official scoring on the
play was changed later and the error charged to La
Stella. The change mattered little to the Braves, who had
no errors before taking a 3-1 lead into the eighth. "You
play this game long enough, things like that are going to
happen," said centre fielder B.J. Upton, who had one of
two errors for the Braves in the eighth. "Well get by it
and be ready to play tomorrow." Koji Uehara (1-1) got the
win after eight solid innings by starter Jake Peavy for
the Red Sox, who completed a four-game sweep in the home-
and-home series with the Braves. "Its just unfortunate. I
felt like we were making good pitches at the end and the
balls were just dropping in," Atlanta starter Mike Minor
said. "Theyre a tough team. I feel like every four games
we played them, they battled back every time. Its kind of
expected out of them to battle back." Minor also pitched
well, holding Boston to one run on seven hits in seven
innings. Minor didnt walk a batter and struck out three.
Jason Heyward homered and Freddie Freeman drove in a run
and scored once for the Braves, who lost their fourth
straight and fifth in six games. Atlanta led 3-1 when
Holt led off the eighth with a bloop single to left off
reliever David Carpenter. He went to second when left
fielder Justin Upton took his eye off the ball and it
bounced past him. Bogaerts followed with an RBI single
and Dustin Pedroia reached on a slow roller up the middle
that was called a hit. A.J. Pierzynski followed with
another single to centre that B.J. Upton let get by him
for the second error of the inning, allowing Bogaerts to
score and tie it at 3-all. "I had it lined up right in
the middle of my body and went to field it. The grass
just kind of took it away from me," B.J. Upton said.
Atlanta had just gone up 3-1 with a run in the top of the
eighth. B.J. Upton led off with a single to left and
scored when Freeman followed with a double off the wall
in left-centre. Heywards homer with two outs in the third
gave Atlanta a 1-0 lead. The Braves added a run in the
fourth when Freeman led off with a walk, advanced to
second on a balk and scored on Evan Gattis single. Boston
cut the lead to 2-1 with a run in the fifth when David
Ross doubled and scored on a two-out double by Holt.
Peavy allowed three runs on eight hits in eight innings.
He struck out four and walked one. NOTES: Boston returns

Friday with LHP David Price (4-4) facing Boston righty
Brandon Workman (0-0). ... Boston DH David Ortiz did not
start because of a sore right calf, a move manager John

surgery.ARLINGTON, Texas - Chris Young couldnt overcome a
slow start for the Seattle Mariners. He gave up three
runs in the first inning and a tiebreaking home run to
Shin-Soo Choo in the fifth in a 4-3 loss to the Texas
Rangers on Wednesday. Young (3-2) gave up seven hits and
three walks in 6 1-3 innings. He previously pitched in
Arlington in 2006 for the San Diego Padres. "I grew up as
a Rangers fan, coming to this ballpark," Young said. "I
wanted to come in here and win, thats why Im disappointed
that I didnt get that done. "You have those games where
if you can limit the damage early, you feel like youll
pitch a good game. I gave up one too many in the first."
Texas first five batters reached base, with Elvis Andrus
hitting a two-run homer and Alex Rios singling home the
third run. "(Young) works up in the strike zone. In the
first inning, we did a good job of laying off it and
making him work," Rangers manager Ron Washington said.
Seattle tied the game 3-3 in the fourth. James Jones led
off with a triple and scored on Michael Saunders single.
Robinson Cano then hit a two-run homer. Centre fielder
Michael Choice ran back to attempt a catch, but his glove
hit the wall as the ball barely cleared it. Choo led off
the fifth with his homer into the bullpen in left-centre.
"Got a home run that got up in that gust a little bit,
thats it," Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon said. "Its a
tough ballpark to pitch in, but I thought (Young) did a
pretty darn good job for us. "He gave us quality innings
after the first inning, really got us in a position to
use the bullpen guys we needed to, and not stretch
anybody." Young wasnt using the wind as an excuse. He
knows how the park plays from his days as a fan from
Highland Park and as a Rangers pitcher. "I thought it was
a decent pitch. Some places its not (out), "If it was a
better ppitch, maybe he doesnt hit it out.dddddddddddd"
"Their pitcher pitched in the same stadium. You have got
to be better than their guy, thats the way I look at it,
whether you give up 10, or you give up one, you have to
be better than their guy. I wasnt today." Rangers starter
Nick Tepesch (1-0) won for the first time since July 5,
2013. He was making his second major league appearance
this season. After Cano doubled with one out in the
sixth, Tepesch regrouped to retire Kyle Seager on a fly
ball and struck out Justin Smoak. The Mariners threatened
in the seventh. With one out, Tepesch walked Dustin
Ackley and John Buck. Left-hander Robbie Ross replaced
Tepesch and escaped the inning when pinch hitter Stefen
Romero grounded into a double play. Ross was pitching for
the first time since being removed from the Rangers
rotation. He pitched out of their bullpen in 2012 and 13.
"I was thinking, Gosh, here we go! Im in a situation
where I like to be. I was pretty amped. I wanted to be
out of that inning without those runs scoring." The
Mariners also had a runner at second with one out in the
eighth, but Neal Cotts struck out Cano and Seager.
Seattle had only one baserunner against Tepesch in the
first three innings: Seager on a leadoff single in the
second. He was erased in an unusual 4-5-3 double play.
With Texas defence shifted to the right, Smoak grounded
to second baseman Luis Sardinas, who threw to Adrian
Beltre covering second. Beltres relay throw to first beat
Smoak. NOTES: Jones triple stretched his hitting streak
to 11 games. ... The Mariners have two injured players
almost ready for rehab assignments at Triple-A Tacoma. If
LHP James Paxton (strained back muscle) succeeds in a
side throwing session Thursday, he could make a start
Sunday, McClendon said. Outfielder Logan Morrison
(strained right hamstring) could join Tacoma as early as
Friday.
