Game 1: As they did to the Yankees, the Rays spoiled Boston's home opener at Fenway Park by taking a 5-2 win over the Red Sox. Jim Brophy (1-1) was solid in going 6.1 5 2 2 1 4 and Willie Minier notched his first save of the season. Luis Barela drove in a pair including his first homer of the season and Seth Williams was 2-4 with an RBI.

Game 2: The bullpen wasted a fine Ben Moses start as they lost a 5-4 walk-off decision to Boston. Moses was 6.1 5 1 1 2 3 and left the game in the 7th with a 3-0 lead, giving way to Satoshi Sato. The normally-reliable Sato had nothing today, facing four batters and giving up the cycle to them and it was 4-3 Boston. The Rays tied it in the 9th on a Luis Barela sac fly but the Red Sox got a double and a single off Mel Mejia (0-1) in the bottom of the inning to take the win. Jose Castillo, Seth Williams and that man Dave Frick each had 3 hits as after an 0-fer in the first game Frick is back up to .643.

Game 3: No worries about a Boston comeback today as the Rays routed the Sox 10-1 to take the series. Mario Saro had a huge game, going 4-5 with a double, homer (#1), steal and 2 RBI, Luis Barela drove in 3 including a 2-run HR (#2), and Yuji Morioka was 3-5 with 2 RBI including his 2nd homer. Dave Frick was 2-5 with a pair of doubles and an RBI but saw his average drop to .606. Marc Gibson made it 2-0 over Boston with a 5 4 1 1 2 5 outing but he needed 103 pitches to get that far.

Team record: 5-4. Next up: 3 games in Chicago against the White Sox.
