Outfielder Ryan LaMarre drove in two runs with a two-out double in the top of the 10th to lift the Boston Red Sox to a 4-2 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday night at Montreal’s Olympic Stadium.
LaMarre’s hit off the wall in right-center field scored Travis Shaw and Chris Young, who had each walked after reliever Pat McCoy got the first two hitters in the 10th to ground out.
The teams play a second exhibition game Saturday afternoon in Montreal to end spring training for both clubs.
The crowd of 52,682, many wanting to show Major League Baseball that Montreal is ready to get a team back after losing the Expos in 2004, saw a game with plenty of hits and some runs early, but little more as managers substituted players freely.
