Tampa Bay Rays OTD: ALCS Edition

10 years ago today, Rays manager Kevin Cash stepped up to the plate at Fenway Park in front of 38,133 silenced fans and hit a 3rd inning leadoff homer to pull his Red Sox within 4 runs.

Carlos Pena and Evan Longoria both hit 1st inning bombs, Carl Crawford went 5 for 5, and the Rays piled on 13 runs over 9 innings to beat the Red Sox in game 4 of the 2008 ALCS. The win gave them a 3-1 series lead, putting them one win away from their first World Series birth in franchise history.
