After 8 innings, Boston led Tampa Bay, 5-0, then:

- R. Branyan lined out to first
- T. Lee walked
- J. Paul walked, J. Gomes to third, T. Lee to second
- G. Norton hit for T. Perez
- J. Tavarez relieved R. Seanez
- G. Norton struck out, reached on passed ball, J. Gomes scored, T. Lee to third, J. Paul to second on passed ball
- J. Gathright walked, T. Lee scored, J. Paul to third, G. Norton to second
- J. Lugo walked, J. Paul scored, G. Norton to third, J. Gathright to second
- C. Crawford singled to left, G. Norton scored, J. Gathright out at home, J. Lugo to second

4 runs, 1 hits, 0 errors
Tampa Bay 4, Boston 5

Tavarez was given a save after getting one out (Gathright at home) and giving up two walks and a single. To be fair to Tavarez, he should have gotten out of the inning except Mirabelli let a third strike get past him.

In the famous pine tar game, Gossage faced exactly one batter (George Brett). As it was oringinally determined that Brett was out on his HR, Gossage was credited with a save. Later the outcome of the game was redetermined. Dan Q ended up with the save. I still feel the wrong team won, but Gossage never should have been credited w/that save.
