Trey Mancini provides late lead, but Orioles are swept out of Boston with 8-6 loss to Red Sox

BOSTON — Trey Mancini, in and out of the Orioles lineup this month with an oblique injury, is battling through soreness for days like Sunday.

The Orioles’ most experienced hitter and inspirational center of the team came up after the Boston Red Sox bullpen walked the bases loaded in the seventh and hit a bases-clearing double to give Baltimore the lead.

It was a big hit the Orioles have so often lacked. What transpired next, though, makes it a wonder that he or anyone else endures this.

Boston erased that Orioles lead quickly, scoring three times in the seventh to win, 8-6, for a three-game sweep before an announced crowd of 27,010 at Fenway Park.
