Boston scratched out a run in the sixth on a walk to Marty Barrett, Wade Boggs' fifth hit of the series and a pair of ground-ball outs, with Jim Rice getting the RBI.
The Mets and Dwight Gooden were three outs away from taking a 3-1 lead in the series when Mike Scioscia tied the score with a two-run homer.
Boggs led off the first with a solid single and came up again in the second with the bases loaded, two outs and the game scoreless. Boggs, a career .373 hitter with the bases loaded, struck out on four pitches from Stewart.
With two outs in the ninth, Jody Reed doubled off Eckersley and Rich Gedman walked. Again, it was Boggs' turn, and he fanned on four pitches.
