The Tampa Bay Rays swept Boston in a three game series then went across the border to face a red-hot Toronto team, and got swept three games themselves. The Rays now head back to Fenway. Anytime David Price takes the mound he is capable of pitching a gem. While the numbers aren't great so far this season, he does lead the majors in strikeouts with 84, and has a strong history vs. Boston at 10-6 backed by an ERA of 3.09. Boston will go with Brandon Workman who is making just his fifth career start. Tampa Bay got a good look at him recently, and should be able to do some damage in this one. The Rays are 37-17 behind Price vs. a losing team, and Boston has been getting hammered inside the division where they are 0-8 in their last eight. Back the road team in this one and go with Tampa Bay.
