BOSTON -- The Rays have won their third straight game, taking game one against the Red Sox in Boston. In the third inning, Dioner Navarro got the offense started with a lead-off homer, but the Red Sox tied it in the bottom of the inning when Julio Lugo hit an RBI double scoring Jason Varitek. The Red Sox took the lead in the sixth with a solo blast off the bat of David Ortiz. Tim Wakefield pitched great, but couldn't shut it down in the ninth, giving up a one-out two-run homer to B.J. Upton also scoring Jason Bartlett giving the Rays a 3-2 victory. Troy Percival closed out another one-run lead game for his nineteenth save of the season. Rays starting pitcher Matt Garza pitched well, going seven innings, giving up the two Red Sox runs on four hits and striking out two, taking an unfortunate no decision.
