Extra bases

• Tampa Bay pitcher Brandon Gomes faced former Ray Jonny Gomes in Saturday's game, making for the third encounter between the pair. Jonny walked Saturday, giving him a 0-for-0 line against Brandon, who hit Jonny and walked him in their previous two meetings.

• The Boston Marathon will be run on Monday morning, and the general feeling inside the Rays' clubhouse was that nobody on the team could run a marathon. However, several players noted that former Rays right-hander Wade Davis probably could have.

• The Rays will wear No. 42 during their games on Monday and Tuesday to celebrate Jackie Robinson Day, April 15. The Rays have worn No. 42 each year since 2008, and have gone 1-3 with one suspended game while wearing the No. 42s.

• With six innings pitched and one earned run in Saturday's no-decision, David Price has ascended where no lefty has gone in Fenway Park since 1921. Price lowered his career ERA at Fenway to 2.13. In doing so, he surpassed Washington Senators southpaw Bobby Burke's 2.19 ERA as the lowest against the Red Sox at Fenway Park.
