Rays Reduce Red Sox



TAMPA BAY: 1 0 0 6 1 0 0 0 0 - 8 13 0
BOSTON: 0 2 2 2 0 0 0 0 0 - 6 12 2



Well it had to happen. The home winning streak has come to an end at the bats of the Tampa Bay Rays. No joy in the City of Palms Park today for the Boston Red Sox. No joy in the loss, but joy can be considered in the outcome of Lester's start. So much better than his previous start and a longer one as well. Also of note are the two homeruns by Ellsbury, one of which increased Boston's lead in the third. The loss of the game came down to one bad inning of Boston pitching, a couple of errors, and lack of hits and runs in the later innings by the Red Sox. But it is back on the road again tomorrow for the Red Sox. Perhaps they can win two in a row on the road. Good thoughts always!
