Boston Red Sox rally late, beat Tampa Bay Rays 3-2 in 12th innings for 6th straight win

Thirteen innings on the road. Twelve at home. Last year, this year -- it doesn't matter how long it takes for the Boston Red Sox. They just keep winning in extra innings. Hanley Ramirez blooped a bases-loaded fly ball over the drawn-in outfield in right to break a 12th-inning tie and the Red Sox, who rallied from a two-run deficit in the ninth, beat the Tampa Bay Rays 3-2 on Thursday for their sixth straight victory. It was the ninth straight Red Sox win in an extra-inning game, dating to 2017, when they were 15-3 in extras. They beat the Miami Marlins in 13 innings on Tuesday night before returning home for the Fenway opener. Tampa Bay beat Boston in the season opener last week. The Rays haven't won -- and the Red Sox haven't lost -- since. The teams have met five times already this season, with all four Boston victories by one run.
