Rays 8, Red Sox 7: Openers are so 2018

After concluding a pivotal series (boy does it feel strange to say that this early in the season) in which the Rays took three of four games from the Yankees over the weekend, the Rays enter another four game set, this time in Boston.

For the Rays, the ever reliable Ryan Yarbrough took the hill, coming off a rough start when he gave up 5 runs against the same Red Sox at home. For the Sox, it was Ryan Brasier, who made his first career major league start.

But Brasier would only go one inning, as the Red Sox did this weird thing where the second pitcher pitched multiple innings, almost as if he were the starter.
