Sonnanstine, Devil Rays aim for third straight at Fenway
Sep 11, 2007 - 2:02 PM Tampa Bay (61-83) at Boston (87-58) 7:05 pm EDTBOSTON (Ticker) -- The Tampa Bay Devil Rays look to post three straight wins at Fenway Park for the first time in eight years Tuesday when they continue a three-game series with the Boston Red Sox.
Scott Kazmir had 10 strikeouts in seven innings and Josh Wilson provided the margin of victory with a sacrifice fly in Monday's 1-0 series-opening win.
Tampa Bay, which has won three games straight and 13 of 17, has not won three straight here since April 19-July 1, 1999. Overall, the Devil Rays have an all-time record of 23-59 in Fenway.
Tampa Bay rookie Andy Sonnanstine (5-9, 5.73 ERA) has been terrific lately and is looking for his fourth straight win. Sonnanstine is 3-0 with a 1.89 ERA in his last three starts, compared to 1-3 with a 10.07 ERA in his previous four outings.
The Red Sox, who lead the New York Yankees (81-62) by five games in the American League East Division, have the right pitcher on the mound to stop the streaking Devil Rays.
Tim Wakefield (16-10, 4.39) has dominated Tampa Bay his whole career, going 17-2 with a 2.38 ERA in 26 career starts against the Devil Rays.
The veteran knuckleballer is 4-0 with a 1.65 ERA in four starts vs. Tampa Bay this season.
