Richie Palacios delivered a walk-off RBI single in the ninth inning Saturday as the Tampa Bay Rays defeated the Boston Red Sox 2-1.
Palacios dropped a fly ball into shallow right field to score Junior Caminero with the winning run, per ESPN. The hit capped what one Reddit post characterized as a defensive miscue, noting that Caleb Durbin was unable to track down a pop-up at Tropicana Field earlier in the inning, allowing Caminero to reach base before Palacios' go-ahead hit.
One outlet reported the victory brought the Rays closer to an AL East title, though the full context of the playoff implications was not detailed in available summaries.
