BOSTON -- Mike Carp didnt need a line drive, a deep shot or to hit into the gap. His little bloop dropped in perfectly for the Boston Red Sox. Carps pinch-hit floater dropped just beyond the glove of Baltimore third baseman Manny Machado in the eighth inning, scoring Jarrod Saltalamacchia from second with the tiebreaking run and lifting the Red Sox to a 4-3 win over the Orioles on Wednesday night. "Sometimes its all about placement," he said, breaking into a smile. "I didnt get a lot of it, but its a funny game. You can hit a ball hard, guys were hitting the balls hard, but right at people. It just takes just one little squibber, one little jam shot to seal the deal." The AL East-leading Red Sox continued their run from last to first with another final at-bat win. It was the 20th time in their 79 wins that theyve gone ahead in their final turn at the plate. Last season, the Red Sox were last in the division with 69 wins. "This is a group that knows how to play with the game situation thats in front of them," Boston manager John Farrell said. "They love to compete and love to work on any given day. I think this is the 30th time weve come from behind to win and it kind of shows the grit and character thats been with this team all year." Shane Victorino drove in a run for Boston with an RBI single after collecting a career-best seven RBIs and hitting two homers in a 13-2 win on Tuesday night. Craig Breslow (4-2) got two outs to earn the win and Koji Uehara got his 14th save with a perfect ninth for Red Sox, who won their fourth straight. Chris Davis hit his major league-leading 47th homer and added an RBI double for Baltimore, which lost for the sixth time in its last eight games. Saltalamacchia hit a two-out double high off the left-field wall against Tommy Hunter (3-3) and Stephen Drew was walked intentionally before Carps bloop fell just past the glove of Machado in short left field. The Red Sox rallied against Baltimores bullpen, tying it 3-3 on Dustin Pedroias two-run single off Darren ODay in the seventh. Jacoby Ellsbury barely beat a throw to the plate, sliding in before a sweeping tag attempt by Matt Wieters. "Its not necessarily one that got away," Baltimore manager Buck Showalter said. "They just dumped one in over there." Ellsbury left the game for a defensive replacement in the top of the eighth. During his seventh inning at-bat, he fouled a ball off his right foot. Farrell said an exam at the park was negative. "Ill be in there tomorrow," Ellsbury said. "It didnt feel good at all, but obviously it was a big part of the game. I wanted to be in scoring position to come around and score the run. It hit me on the foot. I wear a shin guard and it hit the top of the foot between the shin guard." With the Orioles leading 2-1 in the sixth, Davis belted a leadoff homer into Bostons bullpen. The Orioles had grabbed a 1-0 lead in the first on Davis RBI double into the right-field corner after Machado singled. They made it 2-0 in the third on Machados homer over the Green Monster. Baltimore starter Bud Norris held Boston to one run and four hits, striking out seven and walking four over 5 1-3 innings. He was pulled after 105 pitches. "Sometimes you look into it, sometimes you dont," he said of the number of pitches he made. "Tonight it definitely affected me." Bostons John Lackey lasted 7 1-3 innings, giving up three runs on seven hits, striking out four and walking one. The Red Sox cut it to 2-1 on Victorinos RBI single in the third, but they left the bases loaded when David Ortiz struck out swinging and Daniel Nava was called out on strikes. Ortiz, mired in a 0-for-18 slump, flew out to the left-field track twice in four at-bats. After the second one, which was caught in the corner for the final out of the fifth, he stood at first base for a while, looking toward the outfield before slowly walking to the dugout and slamming his helmet.

Marina Lisogor tested positive for trimetazidine, which is classified as a "specified stimulant" on the World Anti-Doping Agencys prohibited list. Specified substances are considered more susceptible to inadvertent use and can carry reduced penalties. The 30-year-old Lisogor competed in two cross-country events in Sochi, finishing far out of the medals. According to the Ukrainian Olympic Committee, Lisogor said she did not knowingly take a banned substance. Lisogors failed drug test follows those of German biathlete Evi Sachenbacher-Stehle and Italian bobsledder William Frullani. All three drug-test failures are tied to stimulants.

The German Olympic Committee said she was being sent home. She blamed a nutritional supplement and said she had never knowingly taken performance-enhancing drugs. "I am going through the worst nightmare that you can imagine because I am unable to explain at all how there could be a positive test," she said Friday. Frullani was ejected from the games after testing positive for dimetylpentylamine. Frullani, who had not competed yet, asked for a backup test that confirmed the result. The Italian Olympic Committee told The Associated Press it believed Frullani, a former decathlete, bought the stimulant on the Internet from the United States since it is not available in Italy. ' ' '
