BOSTON, Aug. 4 (UPI) -- Carlos Santana hit a go-ahead, two-run homer in the sixth inning Thursday, pushing the Cleveland Indians to a 7-3 win over Boston.
The Indians salvaged the finale of a three-game series, overcoming an early deficit with a 14-hit attack.
Santana twice put Cleveland in front, doing so the first time with an RBI single in the third that gave the Indians a 3-2 lead.
After Josh Reddick tied it for the Red Sox with a homer in the fourth, Travis Hafner opened the sixth with a double off reliever Franklin Morales (0-2) and Santana followed with his 16th homer of the season.
Hafner expanded the lead by driving in a run with a double in the seventh and Kosuke Fukudome did the same in the ninth.
Justin Masterson (9-7) survived six innings to get the victory, allowing three runs on five hits and striking out nine.
