Mickey Gasper home run helps Red Sox defeat Orioles 1-0

Mickey Gasper hit a solo home run on the second pitch of the game to provide the only scoring in the Boston Red Sox's 1-0 win against the Baltimore Orioles on September 4 at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Ranger Suarez earned the win, pitching seven shutout innings and recording ten ground ball outs to silence the Baltimore lineup. Tensions escalated in the eighth inning when benches cleared following a hard slide into second base by Blaze Alexander of the Orioles against Nick Sogard. Aroldis Chapman entered in the ninth inning to secure the final three outs and complete the shutout. The victory keeps Boston in contention for a Wild Card spot as the two teams prepare for the final two games of the series. The contest follows a high-scoring matchup between the two clubs on the previous day.
