The Tampa Bay Rays knocked off the Boston Red Sox, 9-8, at Tropicana Field. Manuel Margot was a big reason Tampa Bay won. The center fielder slugged 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Tampa Bay reliever Nick Anderson picked up the win, upping his record to 5-2. Brandon Workman was saddled with the loss. Tampa Bay, at 97-56, is 10 games up in the American League East Division.

Austin Meadows was the walk-off hero for Tampa Bay. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Rays left fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring double to send the teams home.

"It was a solid team effort," said Margot after the game.
