BOSTON — Chris Davis definitely kept the souvenir ball from this most elusive hit.

Davis ended his record slump at 0-for-54 and drew applause from rival fans at Fenway Park, lining a single and two doubles while driving in four runs as the Orioles beat the Red Sox 9-5 on Saturday to stop a four-game losing streak.

“That’s a long time without a hit,” he said. “I don’t know what I’m going to do with it, but obviously something special.”

Davis broke into a smile when his bases-loaded, two-run single in the first inning broke the drought.

“It meant a lot,” he said.

Davis walked to the plate in the first to what mostly appeared to be mock cheers when he was announced. But many of those quickly changed when he hit a liner over the head of second baseman Dustin Pedroia, ending the longest hitless streak ever by a position player.

It was his first hit since Sept. 14.

Once he safely reached first, Davis tipped his cap to the Orioles dugout and many of his teammates raised their arms and hollered in support. He smiled and made a motion that he wanted the ball.

“Significant weight lifted off my shoulders,” he said.

Davis, a two-time home run champ, had been 0-for-33 this season.

The 33-year-old Davis is in the fourth season of a seven-year, $161 million contract.

He lined an RBI double in the fifth that put the Orioles ahead 3-2. The Orioles broke it open four in the sixth, with Davis adding a run-scoring groundout.
