Rays Clip Red Sox in Tight Contest
The Tampa Bay Rays topped the Boston Red Sox by the score of 6-4, with the largest share of the credit going to first baseman Joey Votto. Votto belted 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice for the Rays. Tampa Bay reliever Brad Brach picked up the win, bumping his record to 1-0. Edwin Diaz was collared with the loss. The Rays, at 24-22, sit in third place in the American League East Division.

Votto had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the ninth. On a first pitch fastball from Edwin Diaz, he banged a 2-run home run to left, giving the Rays a 6-4 lead. It was the 4th home run of the year for Votto.

"Anything I can do to help the team win," said Votto.
