The Red Sox made a run at the Jays in the eighth. Ellsbury had led off with a single off Jesse Carlson, and Dustin Pedroia greeted Shawn Camp with another single. After Martinez grounded into a double play -- the fourth of the night hit into by the Sox -- Youkilis brought home the run with a double off The Wall in left-center. David Ortiz lashed another double off the fence in front of the Red Sox bullpen, shaving Toronto's lead to four runs. Bay drew a walk to keep the rally going, and then Drew blasted a three-run homer, his 22nd of the season, over the Sox bullpen to slash Toronto's lead to 8-7.
Jason Frasor took over and got Casey Kotchman to foul out and end the rally.
