Jonathan Papelbon came on to pitch the ninth. The Jays loaded the bases with one out on bloop singles by Overbay and Vernon Wells and a pitch that hit Randy Ruiz. Papelbon reared back and struck out Barajas on three pitches and then fanned rookie Travis Snider to end it. Red Sox pitchers fanned 17 batters in the game. The victory went to Hideki Okajima (5-0).
