As the Braves come to bat in the bottom of the 9th inning trailing the Reds, 4 – 2, a power spike causes most of the lights to go out at Turner Field causing a 12-minute delay. As the Atlanta crowd waits for play to resume it is treated to a rendition of the song, “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia”.

In the nationally-televised Sunday-night game, the Red Sox shut out the Yankees, 4 – 0, thanks to a dominating performance by Josh Beckett, who gives up only 2 hits in 8 innings while striking out 10. The Red Sox strand 16 baserunners but manage to squeak a run off CC Sabathia on Mike Cameron’s infield single in the 3rd, before tacking on a few insurance runs late in the game. Beckett and Jonathan Papelbon combine to retire the final 17 New York batters in order.

There’s another wild finish in Los Angeles, as the Padres are one out away from losing, 6 – 5, but have Everth Cabrera on third base and Will Venable on second. Cabrera takes advantage of P Kenley Jansen having his back turned to steal home, and when Jansen notices, he throws over catcher A.J. Ellis’s head, allowing Venable to score as well. Huston Street then sets down the Dodgers in the bottom of the inning for the save. It’s not all bad for L.A., though, as OFs Matt Kemp and Andre Ethier, both just off the disabled list, have three hits each.
