| It wasn't easy and they almost coughed up another sure win, but the Sox outduel the Rays for a win. An Early shelling of Rays rookie Wade Davis on the strength of a 3-run blast for Jason Varitek and a solo shot for Marco Scutaro in the 2nd knock Davis from the game, and David Ortiz adds a solo shot in the 3rd for a 5-0 Sox lead. Scutaro's second homerun of the game ups the lead to 6-2 enterig the 8th. The Rays then explode for four runs in the top of the 8th with the game-tying shot on a Sean Rodriguez 3-run homer and a 6-all tie. The Sox get two back to break the tie in the bottom of the inning with a Papi single and Ellsbury sac fly. Tampa does get one back in the 9th, but not enough and the Sox win!!

Marco Scutaro rocketed 2 homeruns as the Boston Red Sox bested the Tampa Bay
Rays 8 to 7 at Fenway Park.
Daniel Bard(1-0) got the win with a steady relief outing. He went 1/3 of an
inning and surrended up 1 hit and 1 walk. Tampa Bay threatened in the 9th
but Boston was able to put down the rally.
Ramon Ramirez recorded his 1st save. Dan Wheeler(0-1) suffered the loss in
relief. Joe Maddon was clearly disappointed after the game. 'It was a
manager's nightmare out there', he said, 'We should have had this one.'
