New York Yankees scored twice in the eighth to tie the game before Russell Martin walked with the bases loaded in the ninth. Mariano Rivera finished up for his 59th save in 60 chances against the Rays. They have won three straight, although they have failed to homer for a season-high four games in a row. New York is 4-2 against Tampa Bay. NY Yankees' Bartolo Colon failed to get out of the first inning for the second time in his career and was charged with eight runs - three earned - in Thursday’s 16-7 loss at Toronto.
Tampa Bay Rays led 4-1 after two before the Yankees took advantage of a depleted bullpen to rally. They managed one walk and three hits Sunday and matched that output by scoring three runs in the first inning Monday. They fell 1-0 in 16 innings to Boston on Sunday in a game that lasted 5 hours, 44 minutes. The Rays then opened this series by blowing a three-run lead in a 5-4 loss to New York in a game that took just over 4 hours. They have played nearly 10 hours of baseball the last two nights against their biggest rivals only to suffer disheartening one-run losses.
