BOSTON (AP) — Rookie Marcelo Mayer hit two of Boston’s four solo home runs and the Red Sox outlasted the Tampa Bay Rays 4-3 on Wednesday night. Abraham Toro added a go-ahead homer in the fifth inning, and Jarren Duran also hit one to help Boston earn its second series win over the Rays this season.

By reaching 25 steals against the Red Sox on Tuesday, José Caballero achieved a feat the Rays had only seen from Carl Crawford, B.J. Upton and Josh Lowe.
