BOSTON (AP) - Rob Johnson doubled home two runs in the 11th
inning and the Seattle Mariners beat the Boston Red Sox 7-6 on
Friday night.

George Kottaras hit his first major-league homer in the bottom
of the 11th for the Red Sox, who tied the game at 5 with two runs
in the eighth inning.

Seattle's Ronny Cedeno hit a tie-breaking, two-run homer in a
three-run fourth, three batters after a fan in the front row
snatched a foul pop that third baseman Kevin Youkilis was
attempting to make a play on.

Tim Wakefield made his 383rd start for the Red Sox, surpassing
Roger Clemens for the top spot on the team's all-time list.

Jose Lopez added a solo homer for Seattle, which won for the
11th time in 16 games.
