Post-Game Recap

The Boston Red Sox dismantled the Tampa Bay Rays tonight, ten to nothing, and it wasn't close from the opening frame.

Boston drew first blood in the second, Jarren Duran driving a sacrifice fly to center to put the Sox on the board, and moments later Omar Narváez singled home Yoshida to make it two nothing. That was just the appetizer. Masataka Yoshida went deep to right in the fourth, a three hundred twenty-eight foot shot to push it to three, and then the sixth inning happened, and that's where Tampa Bay's night completely fell apart.

Five runs in a single frame. Duran came through with a two-run single, then the Rays compounded their own misery when catcher Nick Fortes threw the ball into the outfield on a bunt play, gifting Boston another run. Cheng dropped another bunt single, Ceddanne Rafaela doubled home a run, and Connor Durbin singled to cap the inning at nine nothing. Durbin was sensational all night, going three for four with two runs scored, the engine at the top of the order. Narváez then put the finishing touch on it in the seventh, a four hundred twelve foot blast to left that made it ten nothing and sent whatever remained of the Tampa crowd heading for the exits.

Boston was relentless, opportunistic, and Tampa never had an answer. That's your post-game report. Sports Desk, signing off.
