    TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
    Game #38 of Season

    Washington Nationals (18-18) @ Boston Red Sox (23-14)
    Pitching Matchup – Patrick Corbin (4-2, 5.40 ERA) vs Cooper Criswell (1-1, 3.46 ERA)

    The Red Sox jumped all over Patrick Corbin in the bottom of the 1st as Tyler O'Neill smoked a rocket off the green monster for a double putting two runners in scoring position with 1 out and Rafael Devers followed with a 417 foot blast down the RF line for a 3-run HR giving Boston an early 3-0 lead. Garrett Cooper made it 4-0 with a RBI single in the bottom of the 3rd inning. The Red Sox extended the lead to 5-0 on a RBI single by Rob Refsnyder in the bottom of the 5th and that would be all for Corbin as Tanner Rainey came in from the Washington bullpen to take over on the mound with runners on the corners and 1 out. Rainey retired O'Neill on a shallow fly ball to RF for the 2nd out and struck out Devers to get out of the jam and send the game to the 5th inning with Boston leading 5-0. The Red Sox blew the game wide open in the bottom of the 5th when Vaughn Grissom turned on a 96 mph fastball and hit an absolute rocket into the green monster seats in LF for a 2-run HR making it 7-0. Cooper Criswell was through 6 shutout innings on the mound for Boston after getting Lane Thomas to ground into an inning ending double play to end the top of the 6th while Rainey pitched a scoreless bottom half to send the game to the 7th inning with Boston leading 7-0. Criswell retired the side in order in the top of the 7th and then put up another 1-2-3 inning in the top of the 8th while Jordan Weems pitched a scoreless bottom of the 8th for Washington to send the game to the 9th inning with Boston leading 7-0. The Nationals came up to bat in the top of the 9th trailing 7-0 and Criswell would return to the mound looking to finish off the complete game shutout having thrown 90 pitches in the game. Victor Robles led off with a single to RF for Washington but Criswell would strikeout CJ Abrams for the 1st out. Lane Thomas flew out to Rafaela in CF and the Nationals were down to their final out. Criswell would finish off the complete game shutout getting Eddie Rosario to fly out to Duran in LF for the final out and the Red Sox take the opener of the series 7-0

    GAME NOTES
    * The Red Sox get an outstanding pitching performance from Cooper Criswell and cruise to a 7-0 victory in the opener of this 3 game series

    * The Red Sox improve to 24-14 while the Nationals fall to 18-19 on the season

    * Rafael Devers continues his recent hot stretch at the plate as he went 1 for 4 with a HR & 3 RBI. Devers is on fire over the last 5 games hitting .300 with 5 HR & 8 RBI and is now hitting .289 with 18 HR & 34 RBI on the season

    * Vaughn Grissom went 2 for 4 with a double, HR & 2 RBI and has homered in back to back games. Grissom is now hitting .250 with 2 HR & 5 RBI in 6 games since being activated after an injury in spring training delayed his season debut

    * Cooper Criswell was outstanding for Boston as he pitched a complete game shutout as he pitched 9 innings allowing no runs on 4 hits with 1 walk & 8 Ks to earn the win and improve to 2-1 with a 2.05 ERA in 3 starts on the season

    * Patrick Corbin lasted just 3.1 innings allowing 5 runs on 11 hits with 3 Ks as he took the loss falling to 4-3 with 5.85 ERA

    * The Red Sox and Nationals will play the 2nd game of this 3 game series tomorrow with Nick Pivetta set to make his return for Boston after a stint on the injured list that caused Pivetta to miss a few starts and Pivetta will be opposed by Jake Irvin who makes the start for Washington

        TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
        Game #39 of Season

        Washington Nationals (18-19) @ Boston Red Sox (24-14)
        Pitching Matchup – Jake Irvin (2-2, 5.91 ERA) vs Nick Pivetta (1-2, 4.97 ERA)

        Nick Pivetta was making his return to the mound after missing 3 starts while on the injured list but the Nationals got off to a good start as they put two runs on the board in the top of the 1st on RBI singles by Joey Meneses and Luis Garcia. Washington made it 4-0 in the top of the 2nd when Lane Thomas took Pivetta deep for an opposite field 2-run HR to RF. Jake Irvin cruised through the first 2 innings on the mound for Washington before battling control issues in the bottom of the 3rd as he issued 3 walks to load the bases for Tyler O'Neill.with 2 outs. Irvin would escape the jam as O'Neill could not check his swing on a nasty breaking ball away and struck out as the Red Sox leave the bases loaded and we would head to the 4th inning with the Nationals leading 4-0. Pivetta settled in after a rocky start and cruised through the top of the 4th and the Red Sox would get on the board against Irvin in the bottom of the 4th as Rafael Devers crushed a 443 foot solo HR to the triangle in CF for the first Boston hit of the game cutting the deficit to 4-1. The score remained 4-1 heading into the 6th inning after scoreless frames in the 5th by Pivetta and Irvin. Pivetta finished off his outing with a scoreless top of the 6th and Tyler O'Neill led off the bottom with a double and Devers walked to put two men on with nobody out. Garrett Cooper was up next and Irvin left a fastball up in the zone that Cooper hammered deep to left-center and it would clear the monster for a 3-run HR tying the game 4-4. Robert Garcia replaced Irvin on the mound for Washington and Vaughn Grissom single and David Hamilton double would put runners on 2nd & 3rd with 2 outs for Jarren Duran but he would ground out to end the inning and send the game to the 7th inning tied 4-4. Brennan Bernardino got Rosario to ground into what should have been an inning ending double play ball in the top of the 7th but Devers would pull Grissom off the bag at second base and everybody was safe as Washington now had two men on for Joey Meneses with 1 out. Bernardino would make another good pitch getting Meneses to hit the ball on the ground up the middle where Grissom would get to it to start an inning ending 4-6-3 double play and the Nationals fail to score. Dylan Floro pitched a 1-2-3 bottom of the 7th for Washington sending the game to the 8th inning with the score tied 4-4. Bernardino returned to the mound and retired the side in order in the top of the 8th keeping the game tied 4-4. Cooper led off the bottom of the 8th with a single and Romy Gonzalez would come on to pinch run representing the go ahead run at first base with nobody out. Vaughn Grissom singled to put two men on and Gonzalez moved into scoring position with 1 out. Reese McGuire was up next and he jumped a first pitch fastball from Floro and would drive it in the gap to left-center as the ball rolled to the wall for a two run double and Grissom scored all the way from first base sliding in safe at the plate to give the Red Sox a 6-4 lead. Jacob Barnes replaced Floro and would retire Hamilton and Duran to end the inning and strand McGuire as the 8th inning came to an end with Boston now leading 6-4. Kenley Jansen made his way in to try and close it out for Boston as the Nationals were coming up to bat in the top of the 9th trailing 6-4 with Nick Senzel, Victor Robles and CJ Abrams due up. Senzel grounded out to Devers for the 1st out and then struck out Robles looking as Jansen froze him with a cutter for the 2nd out. CJ Abrams stepped into the batters box with the Nationals down to their final out and he would drop a soft liner into CF for a single to keep the game alive for Washington and bring Lane Thomas to the plate representing the tying run. Thomas and Jansen put on a great battle as Thomas fouled off several pitches with two strikes to stay alive and work to a full **** before finally striking out on the 12th pitch of the at bat

        GAME NOTES
        * The Red Sox and Nationals were tied 4-4 in the bottom of the 8th when Reese McGuire delivered a big RBI double to score two runs and give Boston a 6-4 lead before Kenley Jansen came on to close it out with a scoreless 9th for his 12th save of the season

        * The Red Sox have won 3 in a row and improve to 25-14 while the Nationals fall to 18-20 on the season

            TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
            Game #40 of Season

            Washington Nationals (18-20) @ Boston Red Sox (25-14)
            Pitching Matchup – MacKenzie Gore (3-4, 4.87 ERA) vs Tanner Houck (3-2, 4.04 ERA)

            Tanner Houck and MacKenzie Gore were pitching well early and the game was scoreless after 3 innings. The Red Sox opened the scoring on a solo HR to CF by Garrett Cooper in the bottom of the 4th to take a 1-0 lead. Washington answered in the top of the 5th when they put runners on the corners with 1 out and CJ Abrams would bring home Nick Senzel with a RBI ground out tying the game 1-1 before Houck struck out Lane Thomas to end the frame. Boston took the lead right back in the bottom of the 5th as Jarren Duran and Rob Refsnyder singled before Gore hung a curveball that Tyler O'Neill crushed over the green monster seats for a 3-run HR giving the Red Sox a 4-1 lead. Tanner Rainey replaced Gore on the mound and recorded the final two outs of the inning to send the game to the 6th with Boston up 4-1. Houck and Rainey pitched scoreless frames in the 6th sending the game to the 7th inning with the Red Sox leading 4-1. Houck recorded his 8th K in another scoreless frame in the top of the 7th to finish off a very good outing on the mound for Boston. Jordan Weems retired the side in the bottom of the 7th and we would go to the 8th inning with Boston leading 4-1. Justin Slaten took over on the mound for Boston and pitched a 1-2-3 top of the 8th while Weems remained in the game and pitched a 1-2-3 bottom of the 8th for Washington sending the game to the 9th inning with Boston leading 4-1. The Nationals had Luis Garcia, Keibert Ruiz and Jesse Winker due up in the top of the 9th as they trailed 4-1 and Slaten would return to the mound with a 3 run lead as Kenley Jansen was warming in the pen but the Red Sox are hoping to give Jansen a day off. Garcia led off with a liner into the LF corner for a double but Slaten came back to strikeout Ruiz freezing him with a back door slider for the 1st out. Winker hit a ground ball to the right side that Grissom got to but couldn't complete the play as Winker reached and the Nationals now had two men on bringing Nick Senzel to the plate with runners at the corners and 1 out. Senzel would hit the ball hard on the ground along the 3rd base line where Devers would field it cleanly and throw to second base to start a game ending 5-4-3 double play and the Red Sox win 4-1 to complete the 3 game sweep of the Nationals

            GAME NOTES
            * The Red Sox get a 3-run HR from Tyler O'Neill and a strong pitching performance from Tanner Houck as they complete the 3 game sweep of the Nationals

            * The Red Sox extend their winning streak to 4 games and improve to 26-14 while the Nationals fall to 18-21 on the season

            * Tyler O'Neill had the big blow for Boston when he broke a 1-1 tie in the bottom of the 5th with a 3-run HR to LF that traveled 412 feet and cleared the monster seats. O'Neill is having a very good start to his first season in a Red Sox uniform as he is hitting .294 with 9 HR & 27 RBI

            * Rafael Devers continues to swing a hot bat of late as he went 2 for 4 with a double and has hit .333 with 6 HR & 9 RBI over the last 7 games

            * Garrett Cooper hit a solo HR for Boston and is hitting .283 with 4 HR & 11 RBI on the season

            * Tanner Houck pitched 7 strong innings allowing 1 run on 6 hits with 8 Ks to earn the win and improve to 4-2 with a 3.65 ERA on the season

            * MacKenzie Gore pitched just 4.1 innings allowing 4 runs on 8 hits with 7 Ks and took the loss falling to 3-5 with a 5.20 ERA on the season

            * The Red Sox will be back in action tomorrow when the Tampa Bay Rays come to Boston for a big AL East showdown as the Red Sox and Rays begin a 4 game series at Fenway Park. The Rays were in 1st place in the AL East but lost their last game while the Orioles and Red Sox each won their last game resulting in the Rays slipping to 3rd place as they are now 1.0 games back of 1st place Baltimore with a record of 26-15 and 0.5 games back of the 2nd place Red Sox who have a 26-14 record on the season. Brayan Bello takes the mound to open the series for Boston while Aaron Civale will be on the mound for Tampa Bay in the opener of what should be a very exciting 4 game series

                TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                Game #41 of Season

                Tampa Bay Rays (26-15) @ Boston Red Sox (26-14)
                Pitching Matchup – Aaron Civale (6-1, 1.94 ERA) vs Brayan Bello (2-2, 2.98ERA)

                The Boston Red Sox and Tampa Bay Rays meet for the first time this season in what should be an exciting 4 game series between the AL East rivals who are both at the top of a crowded AL East standings with the Baltimore Orioles currently in 1st place with just 2.5 games separating the top 4 teams as the Red Sox (0.5 GB), Rays (1.0 GB) and Yankees (2.5 GB) are all jockeying at the top of the standings. The opener of the series will feature an excellent pitching matchup as Tampa Bay sends Aaron Civale (6-1, 1.94 ERA) to the mound while Boston will have Brayan Bello (2-2, 2.98 ERA) on the mound

                The Rays took a 1-0 lead when Randy Arozarena jumped a fastball from Brayan Bello on the first pitch of the ball game and launched a solo HR into the green monster seats in LF. Bello settled in after the HR by Arozarena and was through 4 innings while Aaron Civale was pitching well for Tampa Bay and struck out the side in the bottom of the 4th and we would head to the 5th inning with the score remained 1-0. Bello retired Brandon Lowe to strand a runner at 3rd base in the top of the 5th and Civale picked up two more Ks in a 1-2-3 bottom half of the inning bringing his total to 8 Ks sending the game to the 6th inning with the Rays leading 1-0. Bello pitched a scoreless top of the 6th and Connor Wong led off the bottom of the 6th with a deep drive to left-center for a double off the green monster for the Red Sox 1st hit of the ball game. Wong advanced to third base on a wild pitch but Civale struck out Grissom for the 1st out and then fanned Rafaela for his 10th K bringing up Jarren Duran with 2 outs and Wong still a third base. Duran flew out to Siri in deep CF for the 3rd out ending the 6th inning and we would go to the 7th inning with Tampa Bay leading 1-0. Bello retired the first two batters in the top of the 7th before Lowe doubled and Siri followed with a big two out RBI single to CF making it 2-0. Wilyer Abreu led off the bottom of the 7th with a single and he would score all the way from first base when Garrett Cooper smoked a ball off the wall in left-center for a big two out RBI double cutting the Rays lead to 2-1. Garrett Cleavinger came on from the Rays bullpen to replace Civale on the mound and Rob Refsnyder would come out of the Red Sox dugout to pinch hit for Dominic Smith. Cleavinger would get Refsnyder to fly out to RF ending the inning to send the game to the 8th inning with Tampa Bay leading 2-1. Bello returned to the mound and finished his outing by retiring the side in order for a 1-2-3 top of the 8th while Cleavinger returned to begin the bottom of the 8th and retired Wong on a ground out before Jason Adam came on with 1 out. Adam retired Grissom on a fly out and struck out Rafaela to end the 8th and send the game to the 9th with the Rays up 2-1. Chris Martin took over on the mound for Boston and Jose Caballero took him deep for a solo HR to LF leading off the inning to extend the Rays lead to 3-1. Martin came back to retire the next 3 batters and we would head to the bottom of the 9th with the Red Sox coming up to bat trailing 3-1 and Pete Fairbanks making his way in to try and close it out for Tampa Bay. Duran flew out to CF for the 1st out leading off the inning before Abreu grounded out to Palacios and the Red Sox were down to their final out with Tyler O'Neill coming up and Rafael Devers in the on deck circle. O'Neill hti the ball hard on the ground to Diaz at first base who made the play for the final out and the Rays take the opener of this 4 game series 3-1

                GAME NOTES
                * The Rays get an excellent pitching performance from Aaron Civale and beat the Red Sox 3-1 to take the opener of this 4 game series

                * The loss snaps the Red Sox 4 game win streak and the Sox fall to 26-15 while the Rays improve to 27-15 on the season

                    TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                    Game #42 of Season

                    Tampa Bay Rays (27-15) @ Boston Red Sox (26-15)
                    Pitching Matchup – Zack Littell (3-2, 3.10 ERA) vs Kutter Crawford (1-1, 3.31 ERA)

                    The Red Sox and Rays are set to play the 2nd game of this 4 game series between teams battling at the top of a crowded AL East standings where the Orioles, Rays, Red Sox and Yankees are all separated by 3 games or less in the standings

                    Kutter Crawford and Zack Littell were both pitching well early and the game was scoreless until the bottom of the 4th when Rafael Devers got a fastball down and in from Littell that he launched 413 feet for a 2-run HR over the Rays bullpen in RF giving Boston a 2-0 lead. The Rays were threatening in the top of the 5th after a Jonny DeLuca double put runners on 2nd & 3rd with 1 out but Crawford would get out of the jam by striking out Ben Rortvedt and getting Josh Lowe to fly out to Abreu in RF to end the threat keeping the score 2-0. Littell retired the side in the bottom of the 5th sending the game to the 6th inning with Boston leading 2-0. Crawford was through 6 shutout innings with 9 Ks on the night while Shawn Armstrong came on to pitch the bottom of the 6th for Tampa Bay and issued a lead off walk to Rafaela and Wilyer Abreu followed with a deep drive off the CF wall for a RBI triple making it 3-0. Garrett Cooper picked up a RBI on a fielders choice and we would head to the 7th inning with the Red Sox leading 4-0. Crawford was running out of gas and issued a lead off walk to Brandon Lowe to begin the top of the 7th and Alex Cora would make the move to Brennan Bernardino out of the pen. Lowe was thrown out by Wong trying to take second base on a pitch in the dirt which proved costly for the Rays two pitches later as Jose Siri took Bernardino deep for a solo HR to CF cutting the deficit to 4-1. The Rays continued to have runners thrown out on the base paths as Josh Lowe hit a ball into the LF corner for extra bases with 2 outs but Rortvedt was thrown out at the plate trying to score from first to end the frame with Boston leading 4-1. Phil Maton struck out Abreu to end the bottom of the 7th and strand a pair of runners sending the game to the 8th inning with the Red Sox leading 4-1. Josh Winckowski came on and pitched a scoreless top of the 8th striking out Randy Arozarena looking to end the frame while Kevin Kelly pitched a scoreless bottom of the 8th to send the game to the 9th inning with the Rays coming up to bat trailing 4-1. Kenley Jansen was on to pitch the top of the 9th looking to close it out for Boston and Brandon Lowe led off with a ground rule double to RF. Lowe advanced to third base on a pitch in the dirt but Jansen would get Siri to pop up for the 1st out. Jonny DeLuca followed with a RBI sac fly to CF scoring Lowe to make it a 4-2 ball game with the Rays down to their final out and Ben Rortvedt coming to the plate. Rortvedt singled to RF bringing the tying run to the plate in Josh Lowe who fouled off several two strike pitches to stay alive before finally going down swinging on a cutter away as Jansen records the save and the Red Sox win 4-2

                        Jarren Duran led off the bottom of the 1st with a solo HR to RF on the second pitch of the game from Ryan Pepiot as Boston sent 9 men to the plate and scored 4 runs to take an early 4-0 lead. Rafael Devers belted a 2-run HR with 2 outs in the bottom of the 2nd making it 6-0 and knocking Pepiot out of the game as Tyler Alexander took over on the mound for Tampa Bay. The Rays got on the board in the top of the 4th on a solo HR by Isaac Paredes but Boston would answer with a solo HR by Wilyer Abreu in the bottom of the inning and we would head to the 5th inning with the Red Sox leading 7-1. Tampa Bay had a chance to get back in the game in the top of the 5th when Randy Arozarena singled to load the bases with 2 outs for Brandon Lowe. Cooper Criswell made a good pitch as he located a sinker away but Lowe was able to drop a soft liner into RF for a RBI single scoring two runs to cut the deficit to 7-3. Isaac Paredes who already had a HR in the game was up next and he went with a slider away and drove it deep to RF sending Abreu back and the ball would skip off the top of the wall and into the stands for a 3-run HR as the Rays have exploded for 5 runs with 2 outs to cut the Red Sox lead to one run at 7-6. Jose Caballero followed with a single but Criswell would retire Rortvedt on a ground out to Grissom at second base to end the inning with the Red Sox now clinging to a 7-6 lead. Garrett Cooper led off the bottom of the 5th with a double and Vaughn Grissom picked up a RBI with a sac fly to make it 8-6 after 5 innings. Justin Slaten took over on the mound for Boston to begin the top of the 6th and the Rays were threatening with runners on the corners and 1 out for Josh Lowe. Slaten would record a huge K of Lowe for the 2nd out and retire Arozarena on a fly ball to Duran in CF to end the threat as the Rays strand a pair and the score remains 8-6. Garrett Cleavinger pitched a scoreless bottom of the 6th to send the game to the 7th inning with Boston up 8-6. Slaten returned to the mound and pitched a 1-2-3 top of the 7th for Boston while Phil Maton pitched a scoreless bottom half sending the game to the 8th inning with the score 8-6. Brennan Bernardino retired Rortvedt before walking DeLuca to put a man on with 1 out but would get Siri to bounce into a fielders choice as he just beat out the double play. Boston would bring on Chris Martin to face Yandy Diaz who was 4 for 4 on the night and Diaz would swing at the first pitch hitting a fly ball to CF where Duran made the catch to end the frame. Colin Poche retired the side in the bottom of the 8th to send the game to the 9th inning with the Red Sox leading 8-6. Kenley Jansen made his way in to try and close it out for Boston and would give up a lead off single to Josh Lowe to begin the top of the 9th putting the lead off man on base for Tampa Bay trailing 8-6.Randy Arozarena was up next and grounded into a fielders choice for the 1st out. Jansen would get Brandon Lowe to fly out to Duran in CF and Rays were now down to their final out with Isaac Paredes who was 2 for 4 with 2 HR & 4 RBI on the night coming up for Tampa Bay. Jansen would get ahead in the count and Paredes hit the ball hard on the ground right to Grissom at second base who fielded the ball and threw to first base to end the game and give the Red Sox a 8-6 win

                            The Red Sox jumped out to a 2-0 in the bottom of the 1st when Rafael Devers launched a 2-run HR over the Red Sox bullpen in right-center. The Rays responded in the top of the 2nd as Isaac Paredes cut the deficit to 2-1 with a RBI double and Jonny DeLuca belted a 2-run HR over the green monster down the LF line giving Tampa Bay a 3-2 lead. Jose Siri was up next and went back to back as he crushed a 444 foot bomb to LF making it 4-2. Boston answered with 2 outs in the bottom of the 2nd when Taj Bradley left a fastball up and over the plate to David Hamilton who launched it into the CF bleachers for the first HR of his MLB career tying the game 4-4. Ben Rortvedt gave the Rays a 5-4 lead with a RBI single in the top of the 3rd and Rafael Devers made a bid for his 2nd HR of the night in the bottom of the 3rd but Josh Lowe made the catch against the wall in RF and made a strong throw in to first base doubling off Abreu who had rounded second base and we would head to the 4th inning with Tampa Bay leading 5-4. The score remained 5-4 into the 5th and Zack Kelly replaced Pivetta with 2 outs and Jose Caballero doubled off Kelly to put runners on 2nd & 3rd. Kelly would get Rortveedt to fly out to Duran in CF and escape the threat keeping it a 5-4 ballgame. David Hamilton singled with 1 out in the bottom of the 5th, stole second base and came in to score on a RBI double by Jarren Duran tying the game 5-5. Tyler O'Neill came through with a big two-out RBI single scoring Duran to give Boston a 6-5 lead. Bradley would record a huge K as he struck out Devers to end the inning and send the game to the 6th with Boston leading 6-5. Kelly made quick work of the Rays in the top of the 6th while Shawn Armstrong took over on the mound for Tampa Bay in the bottom of the 6th and Boston would put runners on the corners with 1 out for Romy Gonzalez. Armstrong struck out Gonzalez but David Hamilton dropped a RBI single into CF making it 7-5 and Jarren Duran followed with a soft liner to left-center for a RBI single making it 8-5. Wilyer Abreu made it 3 straight RBI singles with a grounder up the middle extending the lead to 9-5. Kevin Kelly replaced Armstrong on the mound for Tampa Bay and Tyler O'Neill welcomed him with a rocket in the gap in right-center for a RBI double that scored two runs as the Red Sox have now scored 5 runs with 2 outs to blow the game open 11-5. Randy Arozarena made a catch reaching up against the green monster to take extra bases away from Dominic Smith to end the 6th and send the game to the 7th with Boston now leading 11-5. Zack Kelly pitched another scoreless frame in the top of the 7th for Boston while Kevin Kelly pitched a scoreless bottom frame sending the game to the 8th inning with Boston leading 11-5. Greg Weissert pitched a 1-2-3 top of the 8th and Wilyer Abreu made it 12-5 with a towering fly ball to LF that came down in the monster seats for a solo HR. Rafael Devers would hit an absolute bomb for his 2nd HR of the game to CF that traveled 465 feet making it 13-5. Weissert returned to the mound to pitch the top of the 9th with the Rays coming to bat trailing by 8 runs and the Rays would go down in order as the Red Sox win 13-5 and take 3 out of 4 from the Rays

                                TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                                Game #45 of Season

                                Boston Red Sox (29-15) @ St Louis Cardinals (28-16)
                                Pitching Matchup – Tanner Houck (4-2, 3.65 ERA) vs Sonny Gray (4-3, 4.62 ERA)

                                The Red Sox and Cardinals are set to open up a 3 game inter-league series between division leading teams at Busch Stadium as the Red Sox lead the AL East at 29-15 with a 1 game lead over the Orioles while the Cardinals lead the NL Central at 28-16 with a 1.5 game lead over the Pirates. Tanner Houck will be on the mound for Boston while Sonny Gray opposes him for St Louis

                                Sonny Gray and Tanner Houck were both pitching well early and we would move to the 4th inning tied 0-0 before the Cardinals struck for 4 runs in the bottom of the 4th with Nolan Gorman and Alec Burleson each picking up 2 RBI. The Red Sox answered with a run on a RBI double by Wilyer Abreu in the top of the 5th but St Louis got a two run double by Paul Goldschmidt and a RBI single by Nolan Arenado in the bottom of the 5th to blow the game open 7-1. The score remained 7-1 until Jarren Duran knocked in a run with a sac fly in the top of the 7th cutting the deficit to 7-2. Chase Anderson pitched a scoreless bottom of the 8th as he gave the Red Sox 3.2 scoreless innings of relief and the Red Sox would come to bat in the top of the 9th trailing 7-2 with Andrew Kittredge coming on to pitch for St Louis. The Red Sox were down to their final out when Jarren Duran crushed a 419 foot 2-run HR to CF cutting the Cardinals lead to 7-4 but Cardinals closer Ryan Helsley would come on and face one batter as he retired Wilyer Abreu on a ground ball to Gorman at second base to end the game and the Cardinals take the opener of this 3 game series by a score of 7-4

                                GAME NOTES

                                    TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                                    Game #46 of Season

                                    Boston Red Sox (29-16) @ St Louis Cardinals (29-16)
                                    Pitching Matchup – Brayan Bello (2-3, 2.89 ERA) vs Kyle Gibson (4-0, 1.81 ERA)

                                    The Red Sox and Cardinals play the 2nd game of this 3 game inter-league series between division leading teams at Busch Stadium after St Louis took the opener yesterday by a score of 7-4. The Red Sox lead a crowded AL East at 29-16 with a 1.0 game lead over the Orioles with just 2.5 games separating the Red Sox from the 4th place Yankees while the Cardinals lead the NL Central at 29-16 with a 2.5 game lead over the Pirates. Brayan Bello takes the mound for Boston while Kyle Gibson gets the start for St Louis

                                    The Cardinals opened the scoring in the bottom of the 3rd on a RBI double from Lars Nootbar and a RBI single by Nolan Arenado to take a 2-0 lead. The Red Sox tried to answer in the top of the 4th when Rafael Devers singled with 2 outs and Garrett Cooper followed with a rocket into the LF corner for extra bases but Devers was gunned down at the plate trying to score from first base on a strong relay throw to keep it a 2-0 game. Boston would get on the board in the top of the 5th when Dominic Smith led off with a double and Reese McGuire followed with a RBI double into the RF corner cutting the Cardinals lead to 2-1. Gibson continued to pitch well for St Louis and Bello was getting better as the game moved along striking out the side in the bottom of the 6th to send the game to the 7th inning with the Cardinals leading 2-1. Dominic Smith singled with 1 out in the top of the 7th and John King came in to replace Gibson on the mound for St Louis. Ceddanne Rafaela ripped a ground ball down the third base line with 2 outs and Arenado made a fantastic diving stop but his throw to second base from his back side sailed into RF allowing Smith to advance to third base setting up runners on the corners with 2 outs with David Hamilton coming up. Hamilton and King battled to a full count before Hamilton got a good pitch to hit and drove the ball high and deep to CF sending Siani racing back towards the wall and he would make a great running catch on the warning track for a huge out saving at least one run as the Red Sox strand a pair and the score remains 2-1. Lars Nootbar started the bottom of the 7th with a rocket in the gap for a lead off double and that would knock Bello out of the game as Josh Winckowski came in from the Boston pen and did a terrific job as he retired Goldschmidt on a ground ball to Devers before striking out Arenado and Burleson would pop out in foul ground to escape the inning and send the game to the 8th inning with St Louis leading 2-1. Giovanny Gallegos was on to pitch the top of the 8th for St Louis and retired Duran on a ground ball before Rob Refsnyder lined a ball in the gap to left-center for a double putting the tying run in scoring position with 1 out. Tyler O'Neill would pop up to Gorman at second base for the 2nd out bringing up Rafael Devers in a huge spot. Gallegos would leave a slider up and over the plate to Devers who lined a rocket deep to RF sending Nootbar back and he would make a leaping attempt but couldn't reach the ball as it caromed off the RF wall as Refsnyder scored to tie the game 2-2 and Devers slid safely into second base for a RBI double. Cooper followed with a deep fly ball to CF where Siani made the catch to end the frame with the score now tied 2-2. Winckowski returned to the mound for the bottom of the 8th and Nolan Gorman shot a ground ball down the third base line for a lead off double. Ivan Herrera grounded out to Smith at first base advancing Gorman to third base and the Cardinals had to go ahead run 90 feet away at third base with 1 out. The Cardinals would blow a golden opportunity though as they attempted a squeeze bunt but Winckowski went up and in with a 97 mph fastball that Masyn Winn failed to get the bat on and Gorman dead to rights at home plate as McGuire slapped the tag on for the 2nd out and Winckowski would blow another fastball past Winn for the 3rd out to escape the jam and send the game to the 9th inning with the score tied 2-2. The failure to score costs the Cardinals dearly as Smith grounded out to begin the top of the 9th but Reese McGuire would turn on a fastball low and in from Gallegos and launch it into the RF bleachers for his 1st HR of the season giving Boston a 3-2 lead. JoJo Romero replaced Gallegos on the mound and retired the next two batters sending us to the bottom of the 9th with the Cardinals coming up to bat now trailing 3-2. Kenley Jansen was on to pitch the top of the 9th looking to close it out and record his 15th save of the season for Boston. Michael Siani popped out to Rafael in shallow CF for the 1st out and Brendan Donovan hit a ball back to the box where Jansen would make a nice play to field it and throw to Smith at first base and the Cardinals were quickly down to their final out with Lars Nootbar stepping in to the batters box with Paul Goldschmidt lurking in the on deck circle for St Louis should Nootbar get on base. Nootbar hit the ball on the ground to the left side and Rafaela showed great range to get to it in the hole and make a leaping throw across the diamond but the speedy Nootbar would just beat the throw keeping the game alive for St Louis bringing Goldschmidt to the plate with Arenado now on deck. Goldschmidt swung at the first pitch from Jansen who located a cutter low and away and hit a weak fly ball to Refsnyder who made the catch in right-center for the final out ending the game as the Red Sox grind out a hard fought 3-2 win

                                    GAME NOTES
                                    * The Red Sox were trailing 2-1 late before Rafael Devers came through with a big RBI double with 2 outs in the top of the 8th to tie the game 2-2 and Reese McGuire snapped the tie with a solo HR in the top of the 9th to give Boston a 3-2 lead. Kenley Jansen picked up his 15th save and the Red Sox would hang on for a dramatic 3-2 victory evening the series a one game apiece with a rubber match coming up tomorrow

                                    * The Red Sox improve to 30-16 while the Cardinals fall to 29-17 on the season

                                    * Reese McGuire was the hero for Boston as he went 2 for 4 with a double, HR & 2 RBI and hit his 1st HR of the season in style as he launched a go ahead HR in the top of the 9th snapping a 2-2 tie. McGuire has appeared in 16 games serving as the backup catcher this season and is now hitting .319 with 5 doubles, 1 HR & 5 RBI

                                    * Rafael Devers went 2 for 4 with a double & 1 RBI and delivered rocket off the wall in RF for a big game tying RBI double in the 8th inning.

                                    * Cardinals OF Lars Nootbar was injured to start the season and was just activated prior to this series with the Red Sox and had a big day at the plate going 4 for 5 with 2 doubles & 1 RBI

                                    * Brayan Bello pitched 6 strong innings allowing 2 runs on 8 hits with 1 walk & 7 Ks but did no factor in the decision

                                    * Kyle Gibson pitched well through the first two months of the season for St Louis as he came in with a record of 4-0 and a 1.81 ERA. Gibson would turn in another strong performance as he pitched 6.1 innings allowing 1 run on 6 hits with 5 Ks and was in line to earn the win before the bullpen blew the lead in the late innings. Gibson did not factor in the decision but lowered his ERA to 1.77 on the season

                                    * The Red Sox and Cardinals will play a ruibber match in the final game of this 3 game series at Busch Stadium tomorrow after splitting the first 2 games of the series.

                                        TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                                        Game #47 of Season

                                        Boston Red Sox (30-16) @ St Louis Cardinals (29-17)
                                        Pitching Matchup – Kutter Crawford (2-1, 2.95 ERA) vs Steven Matz (4-3, 5.12 ERA)

                                        The Red Sox and Cardinals play rubber match of this 3 game inter-league series between division leading teams at Busch Stadium after splitting the first two games of the series. The Red Sox lead a crowded AL East at 30-16 with a 1.0 game lead over the 2nd place Orioles with the 3rd place Rays (1.5 GB) and 4th place Yankees (2.5 GB) right behind them while the Cardinals lead the NL Central at 29-17 with a 2.5 game lead over the 2nd place Pirates with the 3rd place Cubs (3.5) also in the mix. Kutter Crawford will be on the mound for Boston while Steven Matz takes the mound for St Louis

                                        The Cardinals opened the scoring when they put runners on the corners with 1 out in the bottom of the 1st and Nolan Gorman bounced into a fielders choice as Lars Nootbar scored to give St Louis a 1-0 lead. The score remained 1-0 until the top of the 3rd when Steven Matz hung a breaking ball to Vaughn Grissom who absolutely crushed it 433 feet for a solo HR to CF tying the game 1-1. The Cardinals took the lead in bottom of the 4th on a pair of long home runs off Kutter Crawford as Nolan Gorman crushed a 444 foot solo HR over the Cardinals bullpen in RF and Alec Burleson would add a 2-run HR to CF giving St Louis a 4-1 lead. Boston responded in the top of the 5th as Vaughn Grissom drove a ball deep the opposite way down the RF line and the ball would just clear the wall inside the foul pole for his 2nd HR of the game cutting the St Louis lead to 4-2. Crawford retired the side in order in the bottom of the 5th to send the game to the 6th inning with the Cardinals leading 4-2. Boston continued to chip away as Rob Refsnyder smoked a line drive deep to LF that carried over the wall for a solo HR pulling the Sox within a run at 4-3. Wilyer Abreu followed with a triple and Rafael Devers hit a towering fly ball deep to CF that kept carrying and Siani would make a leaping attempt at the wall but the ball came down just out of his reach for a 2-run HR giving Boston a 5-4 lead. Andre Pallante replaced Matz on the mound and would get through the rest of the inning with no further damage. Brennan Bernardino replaced Kutter Crawford on the mound for Boston with 1 out in the bottom of the 6th and two men on base for the Cardinals. Bernanrdino would get Brandon Crawford to pop out to Rafaela at SS bringing up Ivan Herrera with two men on and 2 outs. Herrera battled to a full count before hitting a fly ball that looked like it was going to drop right on the RF foul line but Wilyer Abreu would lay out and make a spectacular diving catch to end the inning and send the game to the 7th inning with Boston leading 5-4. Pallante pitched a scoreless top of the 7th while Bernardino returned to the mound with 3 lefties due up for St Louis and he would get Lars Nootbar to bounce into an inning ending 5-4-3 double play sending the game to the 8th with the Red Sox leading 5-4. Andrew Kittredge pitched a 1-2-3 top of the 8th for St Louis and Chris Martin would come on to pitch the bottom of the 8th for Boston and retired Paul Goldschmidt and Nolan Gorman for two quick outs before Nolan Arenado singled to put a man on with 2 outs. Martin would get Alec Burleson to fly out to Gonzalez in shallow LF for the 3rd out ending the 8th and we would move to the 9th inning with the Red Sox leading 5-4. Kittredge would retire the Red Sox in order in the top of the 9th and Kenley Jansen would make his way in to pitch looking to slam the door and record the save for Boston as the Cardinals would come to bat trailing 5-4 with Brandon Crawford, Ivan Herrera and Michael Siani due up to hit in the bottom of the 9th for St Louis. Crawford led off by flying out to Refsnyder in CF bringing up Herrera who hit a blooper into shallow CF and Refsnyder came charging in and made a difficult running catch for the 2nd out and the Cardinals were quickly down to their final out with Siani coming up to bat with the top of the order lurking as Brendan Donovan was in the on deck circle hoping for a chance to hit if Siani can reach base. Siani hit the ball hard on the ground to the right side where Garrett Cooper made a nice play to field it

                                        GAME NOTES
                                        * The Red Sox and Cardinals combined to hit 6 home runs as the ball was carrying and the Red Sox were trailing 4-2 after 5 innings before Rob Refsnyder and Rafael Devers hit home runs in the top of the 6th to put Boston ahead 5-4 and the Sox would get great work from the bullpen as Brennan Bernardino, Chris Martin and Kenley Jansen slammed the door in the late innings and the Red Sox would hang on for a 5-4 win and Boston takes the series winning 2 out of 3 in St Louis

                                        * The Red Sox improve to 31-16 while the Cardinals fall to 29-18 on the season

                                        * Vaughn Grissom had his best game in a Red Sox uniform as he went 3 for 4 with 2 HR & 2 RBI. Grissom has appeared in 14 games since joining the MLB roster after a spring training injury delayed the start to his season and Grissom is hitting .306 with 4 HR & 10 RBI

                                        * Rafael Devers went 1 for 4 with a HR & 2 RBI in todays game. Devers continues his recent hot stretch over the last 14 games as he is hitting.358 with 10 HR & 21 in that stretch. Devers is now hitting .309 with 24 HR & 45 RBI on the season

                                        * Nolan Gorman went 2 for 4 with a HR & 2 RBI for St Louis and Gorman has been one of the best hitters in baseball putting himself in the NL MVP discussion as he is now hitting .330 with 21 HR & 52 RBI on the season

                                        * Kutter Crawford pitched 5.1 innings allowing 4 runs on 7 hits with 4 Ks and earned the win to improve to 3-1 with a 3.28 ERA for Boston

                                        * Steven Matz pitched 5.1 innings allowing 5 runs on 5 hits with 6 Ks and took the loss falling to 4-4 with a 5.43 ERA on the season for St Louis

                                        * The Red Sox got 3.2 innings of scoreless relief from Brennan Bernardino, Chris Martin and Kenley Jansen as Jansen recorded the save and is tied for the league lead with 16 saves on the season. Bernardino continues his dominant performance as the Red Sox only lefty in the bullpen as he has appeared in 11 games and is sporting a 0.82 ERA on the season

                                        * The Red Sox will travel south where they will begin a 3 game series tomorrow with the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field. The Red Sox and Rays met for a 4 game series between AL East rivals at Fenway Park just this past week with Boston taking 3 out of 4 from Tampa Bay and the Rays are currently in 3rd place just 1.5 games back of the 1st place Red Sox in the AL East standings. Boston will send Cooper Criswell to the mound to open the series while Ryan Pepiot gets the start for Tampa Bay

                                            TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE
                                            Game #48 of Season

                                            Boston Red Sox (31-16) @ Tampa Bay Rays (30-18)
                                            Pitching Matchup – Cooper Criswell (3-1, 3.67 ERA) vs Ryan Pepiot (4-2, 4.47 ERA)

                                            The Red Sox and Rays are set to begin a big 3 game series between AL East rivals at Tropicana Field in Tampa Bay after the Red Sox took 3 out of 4 from the Rays last week when the teams met at Fenway Park in Boston. The Red Sox are in 1st place sitting atop the AL East at 31-16 with a 1.0 game lead over the 2nd place Orioles and a 1.5 game lead overt the 3rd place Rays with the Yankees just 3.5 games back despite sitting in 4th place. Cooper Criswell takes the mound for Boston against his former team while Ryan Pepiot gets the start for Tampa Bay and will be looking for redemption after the Red Sox knocked him around for 6 runs in 1.2 innings in his previous start

                                            The Red Sox came out swinging the bats and scored a pair of runs in the top of the 1st with Wilyer Abreu and Garrett Cooper each picking up a RBI to give Boston an early 2-0 lead. The Rays got on the board in the bottom of the 2nd when Randy Arozarena and Jonny DeLuca hit back to back two out doubles with DeLuca picking up the RBI and we would move to the 3rd inning with Boston leading 2-1. The Red Sox added to their lead with a RBI double from Vaughn Grissom and RBI single from David Hamilton in the top of the 4th to extend the lead to 4-1. Cooper Criswell was pitching well for Boston keeping the Rays hitters off balance and retired the side in order in the bottom of the 5th sending the game to the 6th inning with Boston leading 4-1. Tyler Alexander pitched a 1-2-3 top of the 6th while Criswell recorded two more Ks in a scoreless bottom half of the inning bringing his total to 8 Ks through 6 innings and we would head to the 7th with Boston up 4-1. Alexander pitched another scoreless frame for Tampa Bay and Criswell recorded his 9th K in a scoreless bottom of the 7th sending the game to the 8th inning with the Red Sox leading 4-1. Alexander returned to the mound for his 4th inning of relief and Arozarena would make a nice running catch to end the top of the 8th and strand a runner in scoring position keeping it a 4-1 game. Criswell was at 88 pitches and returned to the mound to begin the bottom of the 8th with Justin Slaten and Chris Martin ready in the bullpen and Criswell started the inning by striking out Yandy Diaz on a nasty slider away for his 10th K of the ball game. Brandon Lowe grounded out to Grissom at second base and Criswell would finish off an excellent outing by getting Isaac Paredes to fly out to Duran in CF and we would head to the 9th inning with the Red Sox leading 4-1. Richard Lovelady was acquired by Tampa Bay a few days ago and came on to pitch the top of the 9th making his first appearance in a Rays uniform. Reese McGuire and David Hamilton started the top of the 9th with singles and Rob Refsnyder would drive in McGuire with a soft liner into CF for a RBI single making it 5-1 with 1 out. Lovelady would hit Wilyer Abreu with a pitch to load the bases for Rafael Devers with 1 out and he would drive a ball the opposite way deep to LF sending Arozarena back who would make the catch right at the wall but Hamilton would tag and score on the sac fly to extend the Red Sox lead to 6-1. The bases were re-loaded with 2 outs for Dominic Smith and he jumped a first pitch fastball from Phil Maton crushing a towering fly ball down the RF line for a grand slam HR blowing the game wide open to 10-1. Brad Keller was acquired yesterday by the Red Sox and came on in a low pressure situation to pitch a scoreless bottom of the 9th to finish off a 10-1 Red Sox win in the opener of this 3 game series

                                            GAME NOTES
                                            * The Red Sox were leading 4-1 after 8 innings before exploding for 6 runs in the top of the 9th to blow the game open with Dominic Smith hitting a grand slam HR and Boston would take the opener of this 3 game series in Tampa Bay by a score of 10-1

                                            * The Red Sox have won 3 in a row and improve to 32-16 while the Rays fall to 30-19 on the season and slip to 2.5 game back of the 1st place Red Sox in the AL East Standings

                                            * Dominic Smith went 2 for 5 with a HR & 4 RBI as he launched a grand slam HR in the top of the 9th. Smith has been decent since joining the Red Sox after Triston Casas was lost to injury as Smith has hit .265 with 2 HR & 7 RBI

                                            * Rob Refsnyder missed the first 28 games of the season after suffering an injury in spring training that delayed the start of his season and Refsnyder has served in a bench/backup role since being activated but he continues to produce when given playing time as he went 4 for 5 in tonights game and is hitting .375 with 1 HR & 7 RBIon the season in 11 games played with 40 at bats

                                            * Cooper Criswell was outstanding as he pitched 8 innings allowing 1 run on 6 hits with 1 walk & 10 Ks to earn the win improving to 4-1 with a 3.09 ERA. Criswell has stepped up in a big way after being called up from AAA Worcester and has more than filled the void left in the rotation after losing Garrett Whitlock to injury

                                            * Ryan Pepiot pitched 4 innings allowing 4 runs on 7 hits with 1 walk & 2 Ks taking the loss for Tampa Bay and falling to 4-3 with a 4.82 ERA

                                            * The Red Sox and Rays will play the 2nd game of this 3 game series tomorrow at Tropicana Field. Nick Pivetta is scheduled to take the mound for Boston while Taj Bradley will get the start for Tampa Bay

                                                Enjoying these sliders in my franchise so far. Only really having 1 issue. HR's. Feel like I'm hitting too many. Which slider/s do you recommend I lower to lower HR's a bit?

                                                Thanks

                                                        The Red Sox scored a pair of runs on RBI singles by Garrett Cooper and Dominic Smith in the top of the 1st to take a 2-0 lead but the Rays answered with a HR by Yandy Diaz in the bottom of the 1st and another HR from Randy Arozarena as Tampa Bay scored 3 runs in the bottom of the 2nd to take a 4-2 lead. Ceddanne Rafaela left the game with an injury in the 3rd inning and Vaughn Grissom would come in to take over at second base with David Hamilton shifting over to SS and Boston would tie the game on a 2-run HR by Grissom in the top of the 4th to tie the game 4-4. The Rays responded with 2 runs to take a 6-4 lead in the bottom of the 4th and Alex Cora would come out to get Pivetta and Chase Anderson would take over on the mound. Tampa Bay would add a run on a sac fly by Arozarena and we would head to the 5th with the Rays leading 7-4. Bradley made quick work of the Sox in the top of the 5th and the Rays would load the bases with nobody out in the bottom of the 5th with a chance really blow this game open. Anderson recorded a huge K as Brandon Lowe went down looking but Isaac Paredes followed with a RBI single to score two runs and extend the lead to 9-4. Anderson minimized the damage as Arranda and Arozarena would each pop out and the game would move to the 6th with Tampa Bay leading 9-4. Shawn Armstrong was on to pitch the top of the 6th and Boston would put two men on after singles by Connor Wong and Grissom before David Hamilton drew a walk to load the bases or Jarren Duran with 1 out giving the Red Sox a chance to get back in the ball game. Duran would fly out to Palacios along the foul line in deep RF for a RBI sac fly scoring Wong to make it 9-5. Refsnyder drew a 2 out walk to load the bases again with Tyler O'Neill coming up and he would work to a full before flying out to DeLuca in CF as the Red Sox leave the bases loaded and as Armstrong escapes the jam. Anderson pitched a 1-2-3 bottom of the 6th sending the game to the 7th with the Rays leading 9-5. Kevin Kelly came on and retired the side in order in the top of the 7th and Anderson pitched another scoreless frame in the bottom half sending the game to the 8th inning with Tampa Bay up 9-5. Kelly pitched a scoreless top of the 8th and Anderson pitched a scoreless bottom of the 8th finishing off a strong relief performance as he gave the Red Sox 4.2 innings and kept the Red Sox within striking distance while saving the bullpen. Phil Maton came on to pitch the top of the 9th for Tampa Bay with the Red Sox coming up to bat trailing by 4 runs with the top of the order due up. Duran flew out to Palacios and Refsnyder popped out to Diaz in foul ground by the dugout and the Red Sox were quickly down to their final out. Maton would strikeout O'Neill to end the ball game as the Rays win 9-5 and even the series at one game each

                                                        GAME NOTES
                                                        * The Rays offense scored 9 runs on 15 hits on their way to a 9-5 victory setting up a rubber match tomorrow night after the teams split the first two games of the series

                                                        * The Red Sox fall to 32-17 while the Rays improve to 31-19 on the season and pull within 1.5 games of the Red Sox for 1st place in the AL East

                                                        * Vaughn Grissom continues to swing a hot bat for Boston as he went 2 for 3 with a HR & 2 RBI and is now hitting .321 with 5 HR & 13 RBI on the season

                                                        * Yandy Diaz went 4 for 5 with a HR & 2 RBI for Tampa Bay and is now hitting .319 with 10 HR & 28 RBI on the season

                                                        * Ceddanne Rafaela left the game with an injury after making a diving stop at SS early in the game for Boston and the Red Sox were fortunate as Rafaela is not going to miss any time and expects to be in the lineup tomorrow

                                                        * Nick Pivetta has been having a tough season and got knocked around by the Rays for the 2nd straight start lasting just 3.1 innings and allowing 7 runs on 12 hits. In his last 2 starts, Pivetta has pitched just 8 innings allowing 12 runs on 21 hits with 3 walks & 5 Ks while allowing 4 HR. Pivetta is now 1-3 on the season with a 6.86 ERA and will be in danger of losing his spot in the rotation if he doesn't start pitching better soon

                                                        * Taj Bradley pitched 5 innings allowing 4 runs on 5 hits with 1 walk & 7 Ks and earned the win to improve to 3-5 with 3.90 ERA

                                                        * The Red Sox and Rays will play the 3rd and final game of this 3 game series tomorrow in a rubber match at Tropicana Field with Tanner Houck scheduled to pitch for Boston and Zach Eflin getting the start for Tampa Bay

                                                            Thanks
                                                            You can also drop timing down one click as well......you basically need to make minor adjustments and play more than one or two games to really get a feel for the result. You can't adjust a slider and play one game because what if that's the game where the pitcher implodes or your lineup explodes

                                                            You could decrease power and have the game where your team slugs 5 HR even though you lowered POWRR

                                                            I try to use 5 games at the minimum before analyzing the impact of the adjustment
