MLB Game Of The Day
Tuesday April 30,1985
AT
Anaheim Stadium,Anaheim,Ca.

Here at The Big A,Boston quickly jumped out to a 2-0 first inning lead on the strength of RBI doubles by Wade Boggs and Jim Rice,giving the Red Sox an early 2-0 advantage.It wouldn't last long though,thanks to a Bobby Grich two run homer in the bottom of the 2nd which knotted the game at two all.In the 6th,with the score still tied at two and the bases loaded with one out,Boston SS Jackie Gutierrez gutted out a teriffic at-bat,fouling back 6 straight pitches before finally getting a pitch he could lift,driving it deep enough to score C Rich Gedman on the sacrifice fly to make it 3-2 Boston.In the 8th,following the departure of Sox starter Bruce Hurst,who was simply fantastic,relief man Steve Crawford entered the game and immediately gave up a game tying home run to Brian Downing making it 3-3.Crawford's woes would continue,when following back to back singles by Reggie Jackson and Bobby Grich,Darrell Miller came to the plate and hit an RBI sac fly to center that scored Jackson and put California ahead for the first time 4-3.In the 9th,Angels closer Donnie Moore needed just 9 pitches to set the Red Sox down in order and preserve the Angles 4-3 victory.
