The Rays tied the game in the top of the fifth when Sean Rodriguez doubled home a run. The two teams would remain tied until the top of the 10th when Tampa Bay exploded for four runs, highlighted by a two-run single by Ryan Roberts and a two-run double by Matt Joyce.

David Price went seven innings, allowing two earned runs on five hits while striking out only two.
