Rays starting pitcher Alex Cobb recorded 6+23 shutout innings and five strikeouts and three relievers pitched 2+13 shutout innings. Delmon Young led off the top of the third inning with a home run and Desmond Jennings hit a two-run double in the fourth off of Danny Salazar. Yunel Escobar had an RBI single in the ninth off of Joe Smith, the run charged to Cody Allen. Rays manager Joe Maddon and Indians manager Terry Francona would meet each other again three years later in the 2016 World Series, with Maddon, as manager of the Chicago Cubs, winning 4–3. The Indians also became the first team in MLB history to be eliminated from the postseason without scoring a run.
