To win

ST. PETERSBURG – On Friday, the Red Sox burst into Tampa Bay under a cloud of frustration and uncertainty. They will return to the North with a series of three consecutive wins and a first series of the season after a 4-3, 11-innings Sunday victory over the Rays at Tropicana Field.

Winning three games on the Rays, leaders in the East AHL, may be the factor of confidence that Boston needs to defeat early season funk and regain its winning habits.

"We will find solutions," said the left defensive player Andrew Benintendi I said. "Once we reach our goal, it will be a lot more fun and I'm sure everyone else will be happy too.

"If we continue to play as we know we can play, everything will be fine."

With this in mind, here are four things we learned during the Red Sox's trip to St. Petersburg:

The fierce victories are an extra feather in the cap
It goes without saying that all the victories are good victories, but the Rays have really won the W in Boston this weekend, forcing a draw in the seventh inning or later in all three games despite the fact that the Red Sox led at the start in two of them.

"[The Rays] feel good right now, "starter David Price I said. "They play well in baseball, and it was a big win for us."

The highlight of the series was definitely the last game, when one of the Rays' last goals forced extra innings, really testing Boston's will. The score was in stalemate until the 11th, when Rafael Devers final rally started with a simple spin-off, then moved into second position on a Michael Chavis market.

Jackie Bradley Jr. advanced the pair with a sacrifice decay, leaving Christian Vázquez to strengthen the eventual winning sacrifice, go to the middle of the field and score Devers in third place.

Price said that showing the moxie late in the game was a good way to measure a team's response to pressure: in the case of Boston, by raising his game.

"We are not worried outside this clubhouse," added Price. "We know the type of team we have inside this club and I think we've shown it over the last three days."

The entries have taken a turn
Price scored a record 10 in five innings on Sunday, the highest of the season, and limited the Rays to a pair of points over five hits. The southpaw has a 1.32 ERA in his last six games at Tropicana Field and has two points or less in eight of his last nine starts against his former team.

Eduardo Rodriguez (Friday's starter) and Rick Porcello (on Saturday) also limited the damage to Tampa Bay and put their team in the best position to take control of the game at the end. This is good news for the Red Sox, who were caught off guard by rotation problems, but who seem to have settled down despite losing Nathan Eovaldi to the 10-day list of injured on Saturday. .

The difference is remarkable: the starting corps is comprised of 2 to 3 with a test point average of 3.21 in the last nine games, compared to an average of 8.79 in their first 13 games.

The kid can hold his
Chavis is unlikely to be with the Major League club for a long time, but MLB Pipeline's No. 1 Boston prospect has certainly given the Red Sox a reason to remember his name.

In his Major League debut on Saturday, Chavis pitched the spark of the ninth inning, setting the winning point in third place, crushing a brace on the wall in the center of the field. With the shot, Chavis became the first Red Sox player to record an extra shot in his first appearance on the Major League plate since. Bryce Brentz (2014).

The fact that it was against the Rays José Alvarado, widely recognized as one of the best farmers in the league, has not been lost with the 23-year-old.

"[Alvarado] has good things; I think everyone knows that, "said Chavis, who started at second base in Sunday's final and helped turn a successful double game. "Personally, I belong to a kind of comfort. This is my first shot, it is obviously a big problem in a very big moment, but to be in this situation and to leave this quality of pitcher was very special.

It takes a village
Of Dustin Pedroia at Eovaldi in Brock HoltIt seems that no part of the list has been safe from injury lately. The good news? The rest of the crew has stepped up.

Mitch Moreland He left the game early Saturday with cramps in the back, but returned Sunday to the club for his seventh round at home team in the fourth inning. He finished the 3-in-8 series with a pair of points produced on two circuits. J.D. Martinez is back in Boston with a series of 11 consecutive losses. Other notable series include Mookie Betts (6 for 12, RBI, HR, 2 BB) and Benintendi (Grand Slam, five RBI).

"We did a good job during the weekend," said Alex Cora, Red Sox coach. "But now we have to go home and continue to improve. If we continue to do that, we will be in good shape. "
