The Red Sox get two on but Chad Bradford gets Kevin Youkilis to ground into a double play. Barlett, Iwamura and Upton are due up in the bottom of the eighth. Two of them have homered in this game.
Update: Masterson hits Barlett on a 3-2 pitch, and the Rays get the leadoff man on.
Update: Masterson falls behind Iwamura 2-0, but after a chat with the pitching coach Dustin throws three straight strikes for the K. Upton up.
Update: Pena pops up the first pitch for the third out. The Red Sox are three outs away from forcing a game seven.
It turns out the Red Sox have never lost a game six when they were down 2-3 in a series.
Update: Upton pops out. Masterson hasn't thrown a ball since the visit from the pitching coach.
