Replay confirms: Mets beat Red Sox

Omir Santos hit a two-run homer off Jonathan Papelbon with two outs in the ninth inning, a drive that was initially ruled a double, and the New York Mets rallied to beat the Boston Red Sox 3-2 Saturday night.

The long fly ball to left field bounced off the shelf above the Green Monster and was called a double. But after the umpires went into the tunnel for the television replay -- the first in Fenway Park history -- crew chief Joe West came out and signaled for a home run.

Papelbon (0-1) had been 11 for 11 in save opportunities. But Gary Sheffield walked to lead off the ninth for the Mets, and then, after Papelbon struck out Wright and Jeremy Reed, Santos hit the first pitch for his second career homer.
