Seems like we get thrown out at home a lot.

Dreaded....

Probably wasn't prominent in their decisionmaking but I'm glad Danish was able to come in, get the big out, and then get replaced with no chance he blows the game.

Not sure I see them protecting Danish, yet constantly leaving Lopez and Giolitto go to long and spoil good efforts.

Of course, walk one of their fastest runners to lead off the inning...

Gotta say -- love what the Rays are doing. Such a smart move to have an opener elite RP face off against the top of the order and then switch.

And then they give away an out by bunting in the 10th.

6.4.3!

Bunting with the fastest guy on either team on 1B.....is Renteria managing the Rays?  I will take it.

Winner winner...

All right all right all right

Nice win

Chicken dinner.

Glad Yoan can leave this game with a positive feeling...

Nice all the way around.

Gabe Gross, Cliff Floyd and Zobrist walk offs come to mind.

Linebrink and Koch.

Extra innings win in a dome. Not too common for the Sox.

Still makes no sense to me. The best relievers should be used in high leverage situations, not no one on and no one out. It's just lime using a closer in the ninth all the time with no one on and no outs.

Just watched highlights.  Why the hell was Anderson looking backwards and slowing down between third and home....Jesus, that was terrible not to score there with two outs...

It's not necessarily the 'best' relievers that they are using in the first inning... it's the relievers that are best suited to face off against the opposing teams top of the order. 

It isn't like the Rays are throwing Andrew Miller or Josh Hader out there in the first and wasting that amazing arm... they have a bunch of no name relievers doing all this.
