Can't get no relief

The new closer for the Boston Red Sox will likely Julian Tavarez. Or until Mike Timlin gets healthy.

Tavarez had one save last year. It came on May 28 against Tampa Bay.

Here is the Retrosheet play-by-play for the ninth of that game:
DEVIL RAYS 9TH: SEANEZ REPLACED WAKEFIELD (PITCHING); Gomes
walked; Gomes advanced to second because of defensive
indifference [Gomes to second]; Wigginton struck out; Branyan
lined to first; Lee walked; Paul walked [Gomes to third, Lee to
second]; NORTON BATTED FOR PEREZ; TAVAREZ REPLACED SEANEZ
(PITCHING); Norton struck out but Gomes advanced to home and Lee
advanced to third and Paul advanced to second and Norton
advanced to first on a passed ball; Gathright walked [Lee scored
(unearned), Paul to third, Norton to second]; J. Lugo walked
[Paul scored (unearned), Norton to third, Gathright to second]; Crawford singled to left [Norton scored (unearned), Gathright
out at home (left to catcher), J. Lugo to second]; 4 R (0 ER), 1
H, 0 E, 2 LOB. Devil Rays 4, Red Sox 5.

Now that is some high quality relieving!

And the Marlins are interested in Armando Benitez!

A loud cheer erupts from the San Francisco area!
