BOSTON (AP) — Jamey Carroll had four hits, including a go-ahead single in the 10th inning that sent the Minnesota Twins over the Boston Red Sox 6-5 Friday night.

Carroll and Justin Morneau each went 4 for 4 — Morneau doubled twice and Carroll also doubled.

Darin Mastroianni led off the 10th with a double. After third baseman Will Middlebrooks made a spectacular diving catch on a foul ball by Brian Dozier, Carroll singled off Vicente Padilla (4-1).

The Twins overcame an early 5-1 deficit and defeated the Red Sox for the second straight night.

Jeff Gray (6-1) pitched 1 1-3 innings for the win. Jared Burton picked up his fourth save of the season in sixth chances.

Carl Crawford homered, doubled, singled and drove in three runs for the Red Sox.
