Daisuke Matsuzaka was not sharp, but the Sox give him 4 runs and the bullpen holds the tie until the 11th, when Dustin Pedroia leads off with a double and is knocked in by Manny Ramirez' single. Walks are the problem for the Rays, with 8 over the 11 innings, 6 of which were in the 1st and 6th innings when the Red Sox got their first 4 runs.
