STAR OF THE GAME: Rene Rivera
The slow-footed Tampa Bay catcher delivered the biggest hit of the night, singling down the left field line with one out in the ninth to score the game-winner for the Rays.
HONORABLE MENTION: Jake Ororizzi
Odorizzi allowed a single run over 6 2/3 innings to the Red Sox, giving up just three hits in the process.
GOAT OF THE GAME: Anthony Varvaro
The Red Sox reliever faced four hitters in the bottom of the ninth - and gave up hits to three of them, absorbing his second defeat of the season.
TURNING POINT: The ninth-inning leadoff single by Allan Dykstra set the winning rally in motion for the Rays.
Boston Red Sox
BY THE NUMBERS: The loss meant the Red Sox dropped their first series of the season.
