Extra bases

• David Price (left triceps) felt so good during his bullpen session on Monday that he will throw a simulated game on Thursday. The reigning American League Cy Young Award winner will likely make three rehab starts before returning to the team.

• Had Monday night's game moved into the 15th inning, Ryan Roberts would have pitched. The infielder could be seen warming up in the bullpen in the bottom of the 14th inning. Roberts said that the last time he pitched in a game was during Select League, and he never pitched in high school.

"If I had got into the game, I might have been a little crazy," Roberts said. "It's like, anticipation, anticipation, now I'm here in the big leagues."

• Many figured that right-hander Kyle Farnsworth was injured after he left Monday night's game and Cesar Ramos was allowed extra warmup pitches, but Maddon said that Farnsworth seemed to be doing well on Tuesday.

• The Rays have signed right-hander Roel Ramirez, their eighth-round selection out of United South (Texas) High School. He will join the Gulf Coast League Rays.
