After posting a 3-1 win over the Rays Tuesday night, the Red Sox will go for the series win when the teams meet again Wednesday in the rubber match. Lucas Giolito had a bounce-back performance, allowing three hits over six innings as the Sox handed the Rays just their fifth loss in the last 20 games.

Anthony swung and sent a line drive down the left-field line that rolled to the outfield wall. Two runs scored, and Anthony reached second for a go-ahead double on his first MLB hit. Not a bad way to start the career highlight reel.

BOSTON (AP) — Rookie Marcelo Mayer hit two of Boston’s four solo home runs and the Red Sox outlasted the Tampa Bay Rays 4-3 on Wednesday night. Abraham Toro added a go-ahead homer in the fifth inning, and Jarren Duran also hit one to help Boston earn its second series win over the Rays this season.
