With the Red Sox trailing, 4-3, in the seventh (and final) inning of their game against the Rays on Friday, Michael Chavis hit a two-run, opposite field home run to put Boston up, 5-4. In a spring training during which managers seem to be making up the rules as they go along, it was unclear if that meant the game was over, even with the Red Sox batting in the home half of the seventh.
