With the Sox trailing by three runs and Orioles first baseman Rafael Palmeiro playing off the bag, David Ortiz stole second base in the ninth inning. It was his first stolen base of the season and fifth of his major league career. ''They almost threw me out -- oh my God," Ortiz said. ''You have to enjoy that one because you're not going to see too many more of those. I looked in the dugout and saw Tito go, 'What the [expletive]?' I never go like that on my own. It's always on orders by somebody." Who would possibly issue such orders? ''It's a secret," said Ortiz, who added that yesterday was the first birthday for his son, D'Angelo.
