BOSTON (AP) — Marty Barren, hitting .252, and Rick Cerone, batting just .243, were ready when the call came. Barrett and Cerone came off the bench to cap two decisive innings Friday night as the Boston Red Sox edged the Milwaukee Brewers 5-4 and clinched a tie for third place in the American League East. Barrett, O-for-3 in previous major-league pinch-hitting appearances, batted for the ailing Wade Boggs and put Boston ahead 4-3 with a two-out single in the sixth in ning. Then, after Milwaukee tied the score in the top of the ninth, Cerone, who entered the game after starting cartcher John Marzano was removed for a pinch hitter in the sixth, drew a bases-loaded walk off reliever Chuck Crim, 9-7, with two out in the bottom of the inning. “1 had faith in him to get a hit, but he got a base on balls instead. Just as good,” Boston manager Joe Morgan said. “With the bases loaded there’s a lot of pressure on the pitcher,” said Cerone, who looked at three balls and then took a strike before drawing the game-winning walk. Milwaukee manager Tom Trebelhom disagreed, saying: “The pressure is on the hitter because you have an out at every base. You throw the ball over the plate and you take your chances. “We played ourselves into a tight game and we played ourselves out of it,” Trebelhonr added. With an 82-78 record, Boston moved two games ahead of Milwaukee with two games left in the duel for a small share of the playoff and World Series money. The Red Sox have won 12 of their last 14 games. The Brewers tied the game 4-4 against Boston relief ace Lee Smith in the top of the ninth on a sacrifice fly by BJ.Surhoff. Smith, 6-1, became the winner after blowing the save opportunity. Crim, 9-7, retired the first two hitters in the bottom half but walked Dwight Evans. Mike Greenwell doubled Evans to third and Nick Esasky was intentionally walked to load the bases. Blue Jays 2, Orioles 1: At Toronto, the Toronto Blue Jays clinched a tie for the American League East cham pionship Friday night when Lloyd Moseby singled home the winning run with two out in the 11th inning, beating Baltimore 2-1 and dropping the second-place Orioles two games out with two remaining. The Blue Jays, who scored the tying run m the eighth inning on reliever Gregg Olson’s wild pitch, can win their second division title in five seasons with a victory either Saturday or Sunday. The Orioles must win both to force a one-game playoff Monday in Baltimore. Moseby’s drive off the left-field fence came after a controversial intentional walk and ended a night of missed opportunities for both teams.
