BOSTON (AP) - Adam Lind hit three of Toronto's six homers to
lead the Blue Jays to an 8-7 victory over the Red Sox and spoil
Boston's hopes of clinching a playoff berth for the second
consecutive night.
It was the fifth straight loss for the Red Sox, who would clinch
the AL wild-card berth with their next win or the next Texas loss.
The Rangers played at the Los Angeles Angels later Tuesday night.
The Red Sox scored five times with two outs in the eighth inning
to cut a six-run deficit to 8-7, but Jason Frasor got the last four
outs for his 11th save.
