Boston Red Sox outfielder Alex Verdugo had three hits in five at-bats against the Tampa Bay Rays Tuesday, though it wasn't enough to avoid a 12-7 loss to the division leaders.

Boston Red Sox utility man Danny Santana hit his fifth home run of the year Tuesday, going 1-for-2 with the solo shot after coming off the bench in a blowout loss to the Tampa Bay Rays.
