  • Rays Rally Past Red Sox, Lead AL East by 5 Games
    Rays rally past Red Sox, lead AL East by 5 games 12:18 AM ET BOSTON — Tampa Bay‘s Francisco Mejia singled with the bases loaded in the ninth, Boston‘s Hunter Renfroe made a costly error on the play, and it helped the Rays rally past the Red Sox 8-4 on Tuesday night. Tampa Bay’s lead in the American League East is now up to five games. The Rays were 2-of-9 with runners in scoring position before Mejia, who entered the game as a defensive substitution in the seventh, delivered a single to right. The ball skipped past Renfroe for an error, and that allowed all three runners to score, giving Tampa Bay a 7-4 lead. “He was ready for it and just laced a big double — whatever it was — right down the line for just huge runs for us,” manager Kevin Cash said. Officially, Mejia was credited with a single and two RBIs, and the Rays added another run on Brandon Lowe‘s single. Louis Head shut down Boston in order in the ninth to finish off the Red Sox, who lost for the 10th time in 12 games. 1 Related Lowe also homered for the Rays, who got a two-run double from pinch hitter Ji-Man Choi to tie it at 4-all in the seventh after Boston had led 4-1. “For Ji to come off the bench like that and put together the at-bat that he does, it’s very impressive and a huge testament to him,” Lowe said.
