The streaking Rays, who improved to 11-0 after their 7-2 win over the Red Sox, are off to baseball’s best start in more than three decades.
are running out of superlatives to describe baseball’s best start in more than three decades.
Tampa Bay won its first nine games by four runs or more, the longest such streak at any point in a season since the New York Yankees rattled off 10 in a row in 1939. McClanahan, a first-time All-Star a year ago, is 3-0 with a 1.59 ERA through three starts, while offseason acquisition Zach Eflin has been impressive after signing a $40 million, three-year contract — the largest the budget-minded Rays have ever awarded in free agency. Eflin was placed on the injured list Tuesday with back tightness.
“This is incredible baseball that we’re playing,” said second baseman Brandon Lowe, whose eighth-inning homer beat Boston 1-0 on Monday night. “We gotta keep it up.” Regardless of the competition, though, winning 10 in a row at any point in a season is difficult to do.
