BOSTON — Ram\u00f3n Laureano had a bloop RBI single with two outs in the ninth inning off closer Aroldis Chapman and the San Diego Padres outlasted the Boston Red Sox 3-2 on Saturday at frigid Fenway Park.<\/p>\n
The starting temperature was 43 degrees, with wind gusting to 24 mph during the afternoon.<\/p>\n
In the top of the ninth, Fernando Tatis Jr. doubled over center fielder Ceddanne Rafaela, who initially broke in, and Laureano followed with his go-ahead hit off Chapman (0-1). Tatis struck out swinging in his first four times up.<\/p>\n
Adrian Morejon (1-0) worked an inning, and Mason Miller struck out all three batters he faced for his third save.<\/p>\n
Trailing 2-1 in the eighth, Boston put runners on first and third with one out against Morejon. Pinch-hitter Andruw Monasterio hit what looked like a sure double-play grounder back to the mound, but second baseman Jake Cronenworth dropped the ball on the transfer before throwing late to first.<\/p>\n
Freddy Fermin\u2019s double pushed the Padres ahead 2-1 in the third.<\/p>\n
Marcelo Mayer drove in a run for Boston in the second with a sacrifice fly, a day after the Red Sox won their home opener.<\/a><\/p>\n Coming off six shutout innings in a victory in his first start<\/a>, Padres starter Randy V\u00e1squez gave up a run over six innings.<\/p>\n
