Game 11 - Tanaka Suffers Unfortunate Loss

Masahiro Tanaka pitched 7 strong innings, giving up only 1 earned run, but suffered an almost cruel 2-1 loss to the Rays. With 2 out in the bottom of the 5th, runners on the corners and the game tied at 1, Tanaka threw a curveball that was taken for a strike, but got by C Austin Romine for a passed ball to give the Rays the lead for good.

Rays SP Alex Cobb scattered 8 hits over 7 innings, but only gave up 1 run for the win.

With the loss, the Yankees drop to 7-4, but remain a half game ahead of the Rays for 1st place in the division. The rubber game is tomorrow, with the winner taking 1st place after the weekend series.
