Talking points from the Red Sox' 3-2 walk-off win against the Baltimore Orioles:
STAR OF THE GAME: Xander Bogaerts
It certainly wasn't the hardest-hit ball certainly, but it was good enough - a bloop single into shallow right, enough to plate the winning run in a walk-off victory for the Sox.
HONORABLE MENTION: Red Sox bullpen
Three relievers combined to toss 3 1/3 inning of scoreless relief after Joe Kelly came out in the sixth inning.
GOAT OF THE GAME: Brian Matusz
Matusz faced six hitters and walked three, including Mike Napoli to lead off the ninth. Napoli then scored the winning run.
Boston Red Sox
TURNING POINT:
Ryan Hanigan's two-run homer in the fifth was just the second hit for the Red Sox, but evened the score at 2-2.
BY THE NUMBERS: 3
Pablo Sandoval was hit by a pitch for the third time in his last three games played. Last year, he was hit just four times all season.
