This was the second straight extra-inning game between the two clubs and the 18th extra-inning game this season for the Red Sox. They are 15-3 in those games.
With the win, the Red Sox improve to 87-54 on the season. They maintain a three-game lead over the Yankees in the AL East.
Red Sox Escape With Win
With a runner on second and two outs in the 11th, Baltimore pitcher Brach walked Andrew Benintendi and Mookie Betts to load the bases for Mitch Moreland.
Following a visit from the Orioles pitching coach, Brach bounced a pitch that Moreland sidestepped allowing Bradley to score.
Matt Barnes pitched the bottom of the inning and picked up the save.
Joe Kelly pitched the 10th inning and picked up the win.
Series Concludes
The Red Sox and Orioles return to action on Wednesday, September 20 at 7 p.m.
The pitching matchup is Boston's Chris Sale against Baltimore's Wade Miley.
The Red Sox have won an extra-inning game without recording an RBI twice in their history: once in 1918, once in 1917. (via Play Index)
