This Orioles Blog has to give the Baltimore Orioles a little bit of credit as they did battle back in Wednesday nights game against the Boston Red Sox as they scored two runs in the ninth inning.  To bad for the O’s however, they still lose the game by the score of 6-3.

Garrett Olson was the losing pitcher in the game as he threw 5 1/3 innings and allowe seven hits and six runs.  Olson was taken deep for home runs twice in the game.  The big hit that Olson gave up was a three run home run in the first inning to Jason Varitek.

Lance Cormier and Dennis Sarfate threw 2 2/3 innings of scoreless relief after Olson was taken out of the game.

Luke Scott had a solo home run for the O’s in the fifth inning and then it wasn’t until the ninth inning when they scored again.  In the ninth inning, Kevin Millar doubled to score Aubrey Huff and then Millar scored on a error by Red Sox second basemen Dustin Pedroia.

The Orioles still have a shot at winning the series.  They will just have to beat the Red Sox on Thursday and take the rubber match of the series.
