Jacoby Ellsbury homered twice and the Boston Red Sox won the rubber game of a three-game series against the Baltimore Orioles 4-0 on a sweltering Wednesday afternoon at Camden Yards.

Ellsbury opened the scoring with a solo homer in the third inning. Boston made it 2-0 in the fourth on a run-scoring groundout by Jason Varitek.

Ellsbury hit another solo homer in the seventh inning. It was the second career multi-homer game for Ellsbury. Carl Crawford capped the scoring with a bases-loaded walk in the eighth.

Boston’s Dustin Pedroia extended his hitting streak to 18 games with a single in the fifth inning and Adrian Gonzalez snapped out of a 2-24 slump with four hits as Boston outhit Baltimore 12-2.

Designated hitter David Ortiz sat out the final game of his three-game suspension.

Andrew Miller (4-1) allowed just two hits but walked six in a sloppy but effective 5 2/3 innings to get the win. Jake Arrieta (9-7) took the loss allowing three runs on nine hits in seven innings.
