Reliever Conan O'Brien was one rneasly stike away froin put- ting things away wben the visitors stunned onlookers with seven its, two waiks and an evenlual 12-5 win. Thie Red Sox rallied froru a pair of early deficits before their ulti- mate dernise. Catcher Rob Angus drove in what iooked 10 be the winning mun - delivering an eigth-inning sacrifice fly that scored Scott Connoily. O'Brien brought borne two runs eariier on - witb a weli-placed single and fielder's choice ground ouI respectiveiy - and scored himself on a passed bail in the fiftb. Reg Taylor had the other RBI. Wbiie O'Brien's iacklustre finish aliowed for the reversai of for- tune, the bosts' lack of offensive spark eariy on also factored mbt the ioss. Milton rnanaged just four bits over the firsl four iniings - and no two came in any one frame. Monday's defeat foiiowed a lackiuslre tourniarent peiformance in St. Thomas.
