Nick Markakis had a game-winning sac fly with one out in the bottom of the ninth Friday against the Red Sox.
The ball was hit pretty shallow, but it went to the right part of the ballpark, as center fielder Coco Crisp was forced to field it, and since he hardly has an arm at all, there ended up being no play on Brian Roberts at home.
Markakis previously had an RBI single in the contest.
He has a .354 average and 21 RBI in 26 games since the break.
Erik Bedard surrendered three runs in 7 2/3 innings Friday in a no-decision Friday versus the Red Sox.
It easily could have been eight scoreless innings.
There were two calls that went against him with two outs in the top of the eighth before Wily Mo Pena delivered a game-tying single to knock Bedard out of a 1-1 game.
Chad Bradford and Jamie Walker then combined to allow both inherited runners to score.
This guy has been as good as any pitcher this season for a team that is going no where.
