Trust me, I had the best of intentions. See, I really wanted to recap the Rays’ 14-inning, 10-5 win, but between going to bed at two in the morning, and this pounding headache I’ve had for the better part of the last two days, it’s easier to focus on the game peripherals. It also doesn’t help that I imbibed throughout the five-hour and forty-nine minute contest. It is what it is.

Looking Backward While Moving Forward: Rays Take the First Game, 2-1
The Tampa Bay Rays took the first game of a day/night double header in Boston by a score of 2-1, a white knuckle win if there ever was one. Brandon Gomes (not Cesar Ramos) was credited with the win after Ramos was pulled two-outs into the fifth inning. Closer Grant Balfour came back to tally his fifth save in six attempts, on the heels of a blown save in his previous outing against the White Sox.
