Working Lester

Jon Lester throws more pitches to Evan Longoria than he did in the first inning. Longoria walks, the first base runner for the Rays.

Update: Lester does a nice job getting Crawford to swing at a pitch in the dirt for strike three. Aybar, however, goes back to first pitch swinging to single to center. The Rays now have a threat with runners on first and second and one out.

Update: A passed ball by Varitek set up the first run. Jason was set up inside, but the pitch was high and outside. Varitek tried to backhand the ball, but it bounced off his glove. The runners move up, and Navarro grounds out to second to plate Longoria.

Update: Baldelli, like his friend Carl Crawford, strikes out on a pitch in the dirt. The Rays, however, take a 1-0 lead into the bottom of the second.
