Boston catcher Dan Combs was a significant contributor in his team's 16-3 triumph over the Tampa Bay Rays. He went 3 for 5 with 2 home runs and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 4 for the Red Sox. Boston goes to 49-48, Tampa Bay to 50-47.

Rafael Devers was 1-5 with a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once for Boston. The two-time All-Star had a key at-bat in the bottom of the third. With one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he broke a 1-1 tie with a 2-run single off Nate Sandoval. It was his 80th hit of the season.

"We played hard and won," said Combs. "Sometimes, baseball really is that easy.'
