ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- As rough a road trip as the Boston Red Sox have had in the past week, they enter Wednesdays series finale against the Tampa Bay Rays with David Price on the mound and a chance to finish the trip 3-3 with a win.That was the powerful momentum of Tuesdays 8-2 win, which bore little resemblance to the 13-7 loss the night before that saw Boston give up a season-high 18 hits in taking their sixth loss in eight games.Boston manager John Farrell said he didnt see more urgency than normal from his club, but liked the emotion he saw, like Rick Porcello getting out of a bases-loaded, no-outs jam in the fourth or Hanley Ramirez scoring from first on a double to help extend the lead.I dont know about urgency, but weve played with a lot of energy, Farrell said. I cant say enough about the way our position players have continued to grind away, not give at-bats away, find a way to build an inning late when weve been down multiple runs. Tonight was just another example of that.Now Price (8-4, 4.68 ERA) gets to face his old team -- he didnt take the loss but was on the mound in April when Tampa Bay got a 12-8 win in Boston. Hes pitched at Tropicana Field twice since being traded from the Rays in 2014, losing both games, including an eight-inning, one-hit 1-0 loss in 2014.It would mean David went out and pitched the game he was capable of, Farrell said of his confidence in Price facing his old team again to close out the series.Tampa Bay, meanwhile, answers with LHP Matt Moore (3-5, 5.04 ERA), who has gone six innings or more in his last four starts. Hes 3-4 for his career against Boston with a 5.40 ERA -- he beat the Red Sox in Boston in September. In his last start against Boston, he gave up four home runs, including David Ortizs 500th of his career. Starting pitching, once a strength of the Rays success, has been less and less dependable as their season has progressed.The Rays have dropped 12 of 13 games and will hope to salvage a series win Wednesday, even against a tough pitcher they know well. Their margin of error with a thin, depleted bullpen is razor thin, as was the case Tuesday when a bad outing by Enny Romero took a 3-1 game to 6-1 in the seventh.Were built on winning tight ballgames and keeping things within reach, manager Kevin Cash said after seeing starter Chris Archer take his 11th loss, the most in the majors. Not that getting behind 3-1 or 4-1 is out of reach, but you felt the momentum shift right there.Cheap Air Jordan 6 Nz Sale .

Its making a fun little ride, though.Henrik Sedin scored 1:40 into overtime after Bo Horvat tied it late in the third period, lifting Vancouver over the St. Louis Blues 2-1 on Tuesday night.Horvat scored with 2:55 left in regulation, helping Vancouver to its third consecutive comeback win to start the season. Jacob Markstrom made 23 saves.We cant keep playing that way, said Desjardins. We are not going to keep winning if were behind.Vladimir Tarasenko scored in the second period for St. Louis, and Jake Allen had 24 stops.The winner came after Markstrom made a nice glove save in the extra period and played the puck to keep the play moving. Christopher Tanev worked a nice give-and-go with Daniel Sedin, and then Tanev took a light shot that Henrik Sedin re-directed in for his first of the season.The Canucks trailed both of their previous games heading into the third. Horvats goal snapped a streak of 177 minutes, 34 seconds of shutout hockey by St. Louis against Vancouver dating to 2015-16.I thought we played a good game, though, said Desjardins, whose club won just three times when down after 40 minutes in 2015-16.The whole game we played well and we generated stuff and just didnt score. We believed if we stayed with it something would go in and it finally did, and overtime can always go either way.Vancouver has won twice in overtime and once in a shootout to start the season.When you know you are able to come back it just brings a calmness to the team, Henrik Sedin said. Even being down against a really good team tonight, we are confident we are going to get chances and come back and thats a huge difference.The Blues took the lead at 10:23 of the second after Allen stopped Henrik Sedins initial shot and then the rebound on a flurry in front. St. Louis broke the other way on a 2-on-1, with Tarasenko ripping his fourth of the season shortside on Markstrom.You move on, said Blues coach Ken Hitchcock, whose team was looking to win four straight to open a season for just the second time in franchise historyy.dddddddddddd Getting points on the road is key.The Canucks had a number of excellent chances leading up to the goal, with both Markus Granlund and Horvat hitting the post before Allen stopped Daniel Sedin from the slot.Vancouvers power play, now scoreless on 10 opportunities to start the season, had a chance midway through the third, but could only muster a single shot from the point that Allen handled with ease.St. Louis then hit the post on a partial breakaway off the stick of Patrik Berglund, and the Blues forward crashed into Markstrom, who made a great back-to-back saves on Nail Yakupov and Paul Stastny from in close moments later.Markstrom was expected to get the night off after winning his season debut, a 4-3 overtime triumph against Carolina on Sunday, but No. 1 goalie Ryan Miller arrived at Rogers Arena on Tuesday morning feeling a little tight, according to Desjardins.That thrust Markstrom back into the crease and forced the club to dress University of British Columbia goalie Matt Hewitt as an emergency backup because it couldnt get another netminder from within the organization to Vancouver in time for the game.The Canucks looked to have taken the lead with 6:10 left in the opening period on Luca Sbisas first of the season, but the goal was waved off after video review because of a distinct kicking motion by the Vancouver defenseman on a play that resulted in a St. Louis penalty for hooking.Game notesHewitt, a native of nearby New Westminster, played three seasons with the WHLs Regina Pats before continuing his career in university hockey. ...
