Boston Red Sox @ Tampa Bay Rays

2019-07-24 · Day game · Tropicana Field · Att: 24161 · 72°F, dome, dry · 3:11

Tampa Bay Rays defeated Boston Red Sox 3–2. Boston Red Sox opened the scoring in the 3rd — Rafael Devers singles on a ground ball to left fielder Tommy Pham. Brock Holt scores. Mookie Betts scores. Tampa Bay Rays took the lead in the 5th — Guillermo Heredia doubles (9) on a line drive to left fielder Andrew Benintendi. Joey Wendle scores. The game's biggest swing came in the 5th: Guillermo Heredia doubles (9) on a line drive to left fielder Andrew Benintendi. Joey Wendle scores — worth 15% in win probability. Also of note: On-field Delay $20 minute delay while umpires check with New York on batting order positions for the two subs; Kolarek had been pitching and entered the batting order when he went to 1st base, but the Rays also brought in a new pitcher; it is unclear if Kolarek takes the DH spot or if the new pitcher does; Red Sox complained but apparently did not protest that it was unclear which spot was now occupied by which person; umpire Hernandez siad that since the Rays did not specify then it was his decision about the batting order.
