Daniel Nava hit a two-out single in the top of the 10th inning to score pinch-runner Jackie Bradley Jr., and the Red Sox rallied from a 5-1 deficit for the second time in four games to beat the Mariners, 8-7, in 10 innings yesterday in Seattle.
Ryan Lavarnway walked to open the 10th against Tom Wilhelmsen (0-3) and was replaced by Bradley. Brock Holt laid down a sacrifice bunt to get Bradley to second base with one out. Wilhelmsen struck out Jose Iglesias then intentionally walked Jacoby Ellsbury.
Nava was able to roll a 1-2 pitch up the middle and past the dive of second baseman Brad Miller to give Boston the lead. Koji Uehara pitched the 10th for his seventh save.
