A single by Joe Foy for his fourth hit of the game came with the bases loaded in the 11th inning and gave the Senators a 6-5 victory over the Red Sox. Cal Koonce, who was on the mound for the Red Sox at the start of the stanza, walked Toby Harrah and Tim Cullen. After Mike Nagy took over, a sacrifice by Frank Fernandez and intentional pass to Del Unser set the stage for Foy. [The Sporting News]
