ST. PETERBURG -- The Rays have ended the month of June with an extra innings loss to the Red Sox opening up a three game series in Tampa Bay.

The rest of the game was all Manny Ramirez, jacking a game-tying two run shot in the fourth, and the game would remain tied at two until the sixteenth inning when Manny Ramirez blasted a no-out three run shot as the Red Sox beat the Rays by three.
