He allowed a walk, and Kyle Seager reached on a third-strike wild pitch, but Kimbrel got two other strikeouts to end it.As much as we talked before the game about Kimbrel and giving him a little breathing room, that one-run margin wasnt a heck of a lot, Farrell said.

It worked out nice.Paxton held Boston to a run and four hits over eight innings before Betts hit his 22nd homer off closer Steve Cishek (2-6), who blew a three-run lead in the ninth inning Sunday against Chicago.Seattle may turn over closing duties to hard-throwing rookie right-hander Edwin Diaz.Well talk about it, Servais said. Well probably take the gas off a little bit and try to get (Cishek) in some better spots, and maybe not when the game is on the line all the time, and get it back going again.Aaron Hill homered off Paxton in the eighth to tie the game 1-1. It was the second straight ninth-inning comeback for Boston, which beat the Angels 5-3 with five two-out runs in their final at-bat Sunday.You have to play 27 outs to beat us, Betts said.
