Rays working on no-hitter through 9 innings vs Red Sox
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — The Tampa Bay Rays have a combined no-hit bid through nine innings against the Boston Red Sox. There is no score in the game at Tropicana Field. Major League Baseball rules say it doesn’t count as a no-hitter until the game ends and a team finishes with no hits. J.P. Feyereisen opened for Tampa Bay and pitched two innings. Javy Guerra then got two outs before Jeffrey Springs pitched two innings. Jason Adam got four outs, Ryan Thompson pitched the seventh and Andrew Kittredge worked the eighth and ninth. The Red Sox have five walks, and Trevor Story reached in the third when second baseman Brandon Lowe committed an error. Tampa Bay has gotten only two hits.
