Beliveau played his entire career with the Montreal Canadiens and up to
this point, Phillips has played all 1,124 games of his career with the
Ottawa Senators.ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Evan Longoria savored another
win-or-go-home victory for the Tampa Bay Rays.
"I think we all understand the stakes. We all understand that we have
our backs to the wall. And it seems like those moments have been fueling
us," the three-time All-Star said Monday night after Jose Lobatons
two-out, ninth-inning homer gave the Rays a 5-4 victory over the Boston
Red Sox and renewed hope in the AL division series.
"These are the game that weve really played well in. Although youd like
to be on the other side, maybe we need that now."
Tampa Bay won when facing elimination for the fourth time in nine days,
trimming Bostons lead to 2-1 in the best-of-five matchup. Game 4 is
Tuesday night at Tropicana Field, with Jake Peavy starting for the Red
Sox against Jeremy Hellickson.
"They have a great team. They never quit. Weve seen that ... everyone
knows that. Weve just got to be one run better than them (Tuesday),"
Bostons Dustin Pedroia said. "Well be all right. Well be fine."
As hes done so often in his career, Longoria provided the spark that
turned a potentially bleak night into a special moment in Rays history.
The only player whos appeared in every post-season game Tampa Bay has
ever played homered off Clay Buchholz in the fifth inning. The three-run
shot erased a 3-0 deficit and boosted sagging hopes.
We needed that badly, theres no denying," manager Joe Maddon said.
"After we saw that ... its kind of like the energy came back," Lobaton
added. "Everybody was kind of like, weve got a chance now."
Lobatons solo homer off Koji Uehara landed into the giant fish tank
beyond the centre-field wall. The Red Sox closer didnt allow a home run
in his last 37 regular-season appearances.
"Koji has been tough, man. Hes been a really bright spot on that
ballclub. To be able to come through in that moment, those are the kind
of things that were going to need to propel us forward," Longoria said.
Back home after two weeks on the road, the Rays gave a sellout crowd of
33,675 little to cheer until Longoria homered on his 28th birthday.
Pinch-hitter Delmon Young, who has a penchant for driving home key runs
in October, put the Rays ahead 4-3 with an RBI grounder in the eighth.
The Red Sox made it 4-all in the ninth on Pedroias RBI grounder after
closer Fernando Rodney issued a leadoff walk to Will Middlebrooks.
Rodney got the win when Lobaton golfed a low pitch to right-centre,
ending the 4-hour, 19-minute game. Donta Hightower Patriots Jersey. The ball deflected off a fan trying to catch the souvenir and wound up
in the 10,000-gallon tank where cownose rays swim around.
Rays manager Joe Maddon said he was studying his lineup when he heard
the crack of the bat.
"Look up and the ball is going towards the tank, which nobody hits home
runs there. Nobody does. How about that? Its incredible," he said.
The last time Uehara gave up a homer was June 30 to Toronto slugger
Jose Bautista.
"You dont expect it ... I think thats what makes it a little tougher,"
Red Sox right fielder Shane Victorino said of Lobatons homer. "Ill hand
the ball to Koji (Tuesday) if we need to. I have all the confidence in
him. We look at the positive that we battled back against their closer
to tie the game."
The Rays won three must-win road games in three cities over four days
just to get into the division series, so they felt good about their
chances of coming back against the Red Sox.
Especially with Alex Cobb on the mound. The right-hander beat Cleveland
4-0 in the AL wild-card game last Wednesday and has been one of the
consistent pitchers in the majors since August 2012.
The Red Sox were just as confident about the prospect of closing out the
series.
"Im sure theres an attitude they have nothing to lose and just let it
all hang out," Boston manager John Farrell said. "Thats what weve been
accustomed to for years against the Rays. As I mentioned before the
series started, we have tremendous respect for them and we know it will
be a very similar game tomorrow night."
Buchholz, limited to 16 starts this season because of a neck strain that
landed him on the disabled list for three months, allowed three runs
and seven hits in six innings.
Cobb, pitching on his 26th birthday, yielded three runs and five hits in
five innings. Ellsbury scored Bostons first two runs on Ben Zobrists
throwing error in the first and Cobbs wild pitch in the fifth.
David Ortizs fifth-inning RBI single put the Red Sox up 3-0 against the
Tampa Bay starter.
The Red Sox remain confident heading into Game 4. This is the ninth time
theyve won Games 1 and 2 of a post-season series, and seven of the
BOSTON - For the Boston Red Sox, bushy beards are so last year. Jacoby Brissett Patriots Jersey .
Red Sox outfielder Jonny Gomes, the bandleader of the beard brigade
during Bostons run to the 2013 World Series title, said he will be
shaving his off before spring training so that he can file it "in the
archive" with his memories of the teams improbable championship.
"It was a pretty cool experience. Want to bottle it up and enjoy it," he
said on Thursday, still with his recognizable chin scruff. "Ill start
2014 pretty clean."
Some of the Red Sox players already have shaved their beards, but
Jon Lester was sporting a trimmed-back style before the 75th annual
dinner of the Boston chapter of the Baseball Writers Association of
America. Designated hitter David Ortiz and outfielder Shane Victorino
cut theirs off for charity shortly after the World Series.
Manager John Farrell said the rest will soon follow.
"Weve come to an agreement that when we get on the field well be cleaned
up," he said.
All three of the teams recent World Series trophies were on display in
the ballroom before the dinner, where former Atlanta Braves pitcher and
newly elected Hall of Famer Tom Glavine was to receive the organizations
highest honour, the Judge Emil Fuchs Award for long and meritorious
service to baseball. Red Sox pitcher John Lackey was honoured with the
Tony Conigliaro Award for overcoming adversity.
Other honorees at the dinner were to include:
—Miguel Cabrera, the Ted Williams Award for the top hitter in baseball.
—Ortiz, the Thomas A. Yawkey Award as the Red Sox MVP. Only Carl
Yastrzemski, who won the award six times, has more than Ortizs four
Yawkey awards.
—Lester, Red Sox pitcher of the year.
—Koji Uehara, Red Sox fireman of the year.
—David Ross, good guy award.
—Craig Breslow, Tim Wakefield Award for a Red Sox unsung hero.
—Xander Bogaerts, the minor league player of the year.
—Jose Iglesias, Red Sox rookie of the year.
—Bill Ballou of the Worcester Telegram, the Dave OHara Award for his
service to the chapter.
Farrell was selected manager of the year and Red Sox general manager Ben
Cherington was the organizations executive of the year after guiding
the team from worst to first.
Working toward next season, Cherington gave oft-injured outfielder
Grady Sizemore a $750,000, one-year contract this week.
The three-time All-Star has not played since 2011. Sizemore, 31, is a
.269 career hitter with 139 homers and 458 RBIs.
"Everyone knows who he was in his prime," Cherington said. "That player
fits on any team."
