Top of the 3rd

By JC De La Torre

Ramirez up, takes strike one...ball one...Ramirez bunts foul...oh crap, Aybar in for Pena...no report on what's up with Pena...Ramirez foul deep to left...low ball two...Ground ball, up the middle...BASE HIT! Ramirez on first.

Still no word on why Aybar took over for Pena at first.

AJ Pirzinski is up...blooper into left, base hit...men at first and 2nd...

Uribe up...he bunts, Shields to first...runners advance.

Back to the top of the order, Cabrera is up...swing and a miss....Cabrera pops up in the infield...Aki under it...makes the catch, two down.

Wise up...takes strike one...Ball one...ball two...swing and a miss - strike two...Cowbells...MORE COWBELL RAYS FANS...High fly ball...deep to RIGHT....HOME RUN! Sox take a 3-1 lead...

Jermaine Dye is up now...takes a strike...ball one...ball two...fouled back - 2-2 count...Dye high fly ball deep to center over Upton's head....base hit...double...

Hickey's coming out to talk to Shields...

Thome up...Takes ball one inside...Takes Ball two...Takes strike one...Swing and a miss, strike two...Cow bells a ringing....Low, Ball three...full count...Fouls it off to stay a live...Grounder to Aki...over to Aybar...inning over...

Not a good inning for Shields...3 runs, four hits.

Dewayne Wise's 3 run homer makes it W-Sox 3, Rays 1 after 2.5 innings
