ANAHEIM -- Garret Anderson atoned for his mistake in the top of the seventh with a go-ahead single in the bottom of the frame and led the Angels to a 4-3 victory over the Red Sox on Tuesday.
Anderson smoked a two-out single to right field that scored Vladimir Guerrero and broke a 3-3 tie. The hit came less than 10 minutes after a poorly timed dive allowed David Ortiz to score from first base on a Kevin Youkilis double.
The Angels' left fielder had tied the game at 2-2 in the third when he plated Orlando Cabrera on a groundout to second. The run came home a play after Guerrero skied a ball into right field that eluded a trio of Red Sox defenders and dropped in for a double, putting Cabrera on third.
The Red Sox went ahead, 2-1, in the third after Chone Figgins sped across center field and nearly made an inning-ending catch on a Wily Mo Pena's drive to left-center. But the ball glanced off the heel of Figgins' outstretched glove and fell in, allowing the Red Sox to score to twice on the error.
