The Red Sox are going to push really hard to derail any post season hope the Rays have on the year. However, one thing the Red Sox are going to have some problems with is Eovaldi is a good pitcher, but he is not the pitcher to keep the runners off the base paths and that is what happens in this game here as he lets way to many hits in the game. Final Score, Tampa Bay Rays win 5-3.
