Trailing 4-3 in the top of the 9th inning, this ball was used when the Red Sox brought David Ortiz in to pinch-hit. With Andrew Benintendi on first base, Ortiz hit the first pitch he saw from Francisco Rodriguez to center field when Alex Presley fielded this single. David Ortiz was removed for a pinch-runner, Dustin Pedroia. This ball, however, remained in play. Xander Bogaerts took two balls before hitting an 85.1 MPH changeup to first baseman Andrew Romine for the second out of the inning. This ball was retired after the Bogaerts ground out, and the next batter, Mookie Betts lined out to end the game. The Red Sox lost, 4-3. This left them with a record of 67-53, which was good enough for second place in the American League East, 1.5 games behind the Blue Jays.
