The Boston Red Sox snapped their four-game losing streak on Saturday in impressive fashion, bludgeoning the Baltimore Orioles in a 17-1 blowout at Camden Yards.

Boston clobbered eight extra-base hits, including three home runs. Both were season highs as well, returning the favor after the Orioles bashed six homers against them on Friday.

The Red Sox erupted for 10 runs in the ninth inning, putting the game well out of reach. They had more runs in that one inning than in any previous game this season.
