With knuckleballer Steven Wright making his first major league start for Boston, catcher Ryan Lavarnway ties an unenviable record by allowing four passed balls in the 1st inning. Wright helps out with a wild pitch, two walks and a hit batsman as the Astros score three times, and he is removed in favor of Brandon Workman before the start of the 2nd inning. The game is far from over, however, and Lavarnway gets a chance to redeem himself with a two-run double that gives the Red Sox an 8 – 7 lead in the 5th.

Jim Thome hits a walk-off homer off Tampa Bay’s Jake McGee in the bottom of the 9th to give the Phillies a 7 – 6 win. It is Thome’s 609th career homer, tying him with Sammy Sosa for 7th place on the all-time list, and the 13th in walk-off fashion, the most in history; five players have hit 12, and all are Hall of Famers: Jimmie Foxx, Mickey Mantle, Stan Musial, Frank Robinson and Babe Ruth. The 900th win of manager Charlie Manuel’s career moves the Phillies out of last place in the NL East.
