MANILA, Philippines — Eli White slid home with the winning run on Wilyer Abreu’s fielder’s choice, as the Boston Red Sox erased a 2-0, ninth-inning deficit and walked off with a 3-2 win over the visiting San Francisco Giants on Saturday night.

With the bases loaded, Giants first baseman Bryce Eldridge made a great diving stop on Abreu’s low liner, but his throw pulled catcher Andrew Knizner’s foot off home plate as he tried to complete the force play.
