Partial play-by-play:
Phillies 2nd: Mike Lieberthal doubled off Tim Wakefield. Wakefield walked two and gave up one hit in three innings. No one reached third base against him.
Red Sox 1st: Left-hander Randy Wolf started in place of Bruce Chen. Chris Stynes doubled to center. Jose Offerman walked. Jason Varitek (batting RH) homered into a stiff breeze to left field for a 3-0 lead.
Red Sox 3rd: Varitek lined a single to left.
Phillies 4th: Scott Rolen tried a drag bunt leading off the inning. He fouled the pitch off and eventually was called out on strikes. With two outs, Mike Lieberthal singled. Kevin Jordan hit a hump-back single off the glove of diving shortstop Craig Grebeck. Tomas Perez doubled to left, scoring Lieberthal. Trot Nixon then saved two runs with a diving catch off the bat of pitcher Nelson Figueroa. Figueroa, who has one lifetime hit, jokingly chided Nixon for robbing him of a hit.
Phillies 5th: Bobby Abreu lifted a high drive over both sets of billboards and the protective screen in right field for a solo home run off Pete Schourek.
Red Sox 5th: When Grebeck grounded sharply up the middle in the fifth inning, the ball kicked off Figueroa’s ankle toward first base where Travis Lee fielded and tossed the ball to Figueroa, who recovered in time to narrowly beat Grebeck to the bag.
Red Sox 6th: Varitek reached first base when Doug Glanville misplayed his fly ball in center field.
Phillies 7th: Carlos Castillo pitching for Boston. Pinch-hitter Marlon Anderson lined a home run to right field. Rob Ducey doubled to left-center. Brian L. Hunter sacrificed Ducey to third and Ducey then scored on a wild throw by Castillo while fielding the bunt. Bobby Abreu singled to left-center, Hunter scored. Abreu moved to second on a ground out, stole third and scored on Mike Lieberthal’s fielder’s choice, giving the Phillies a 6-3 lead.
Red Sox 8th: Down 6-3, Luis Rodriguez’s two-run single to left with the bases loaded off Amaury Telemaco made it 6-5.
Red Sox 9th: Trot Nixon tied the game at 6-6 with a towering lead-off homer off Ricky Bottalico. Nixon’s long ball, on a 1-2 count, fell well beyond the palm trees in right-center field. Dernell Stenson walked and was forced on a fielder’s choice by Stynes. Mike Neill hit a home run over the wall in right to break the tie and give the Red Sox an 8-6 lead. Morgan Burkhart completed the four-run rally with his second homer — a solo shot — over the wall in right.
Phillies 9th: Sang-Hoon Lee pitching for Boston. Brian L. Hunter singled. Jason Michaels reached on an error by Chris Stynes. Hunter scored on a wild pitch. Pat Burrell walked. Gene Schall walked, loading thebases. Johnny Estrada grounded into a double play, scoring Michaels, 9-8. Pinch hitter Reggie Taylor recovered from an 0-2 count and singled sharply up the middle. He was then caught trying to steal second base. With the tying run on third, Kevin Jordan popped out to shortstop Lou Merloni to end the game.
The only hit Wakefield allowed was a double to right-center by Mike Lieberthal leading off the second inning. Wakefield threw 41 pitches, 27 for strikes.
