Looking Backward While Moving Forward: Rays Fall Behind Boston After Second Consecutive Loss

The Rays find themselves on the brink of elimination for the fourth time in a week. Alex Cobb holds the Rays’ season in his hands, when the good guys come home Monday to take on Boston in front of a sold out Tropicana Field. His offspeed repertoire will hopefully be what the Rays need to calm the Sox’s bats. Cobb will face a very tough Clay Buchholz, and you can read about the pitching match-up here. I’ll post the starting lineup when it becomes available.
