Now 51-45, the Red Sox have leapfrogged the Rays for the American League's second Wild Card spot. They'll go for the series win with ace Garrett Crochet on the mound Saturday and look to keep building momentum before the All-Star break.
Marcelo Mayer’s opposite-field RBI double cut Boston’s deficit to 3-2. It left his bat at 108.7 mph. Ceddanne Rafaela then connected on a 1-2 slider outside of the zone and dropped it into center field for a go-ahead two-run double to make it 4-3 Red Sox.
