Rays Edged by Red Sox, 8-6
The Boston Red Sox had to overcome a big game from Tampa Bay shortstop Wander Franco to leave Tropicana Field with a victory. And they did, winning, 8-6. Franco was 3-4 with a double, 2 singles, and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Boston pitcher Julian Fernandez got the win. He's now 2-1. Bryce Eldridge was tagged with the loss. The Rays, now 8-14, continue their slow start.

The result might have been different, had it not been for 26-year old shortstop Marcelo Mayer. Mayer had a 2-run double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Red Sox ahead, 8-6. For the game, Mayer had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"It doesn't matter if you're 10 games over .500 or 10 games under, it feels good to win," Mayer told the Boston News.
