ST. PETERSBURG -- A grueling stretch which saw the Red Sox play 30 games in 30 days ended with a thud at Tropicana Field.

With a win seeming secure the way Tim Wakefield mastered the Devil Rays over the first seven innings of Thursday's game, everything fell apart in a nightmarish bottom of the eighth inning that landed the Red Sox in second place for the first time in 65 days. The ultimate result was a crushing 7-4 loss that stung as much as any defeat this season.

Leading, 4-2, entering the bottom of the eighth, Wakefield started the inning by giving up a single to Joey Gathright and then he hit Julio Lugo. Boston's knuckleballer seemingly got a big reprieve, courtesy of a 4-6-3 double play by Carl Crawford. But Jorge Cantu stroked an RBI single to left to make it a one-run game.

That was all for Wakefield, and closer Mike Timlin came on and got shelled. Travis Lee greeted him with a single and Jonny Gomes followed with the game's biggest hit, a scorching liner over Edgar Renteria's glove that rolled all the way to the wall for a two-run triple that gave Tampa Bay its first lead of the night.

Meanwhile, Randy Johnson pitched a gem in the Bronx, pushing the Yankees a half-game ahead of the Sox in the American League East.

I don't think I'll be able to watch the last three games of the season. Too much excitement!

Ahh the Yankees/Red Sox rivalry...it gets better each year. The season-ending series will be outstanding. I hope it goes down to the final day of the season, where a playoff spot is on the line and only the divisional winner will make the postseason. To be honest I'm pulling for the Yanks this year. Not because I don't like the Sox, I just get tired of Kurt Schilling with all of his self-aggrandizing. I mean really, I respect the fact that he pitched on a bum ankle with the bloody sock and all, but when you talk about how much courage you have and how gutty your performance was its a turn off. Imagine Jordan doing that after "the Flu Game" vs. Utah in the '97 Finals. barf
