CINCINNATI — Shane McClanahan gave the Rays another strong start Friday, but they couldn’t take advantage and lost to the Reds, 2-1.
The end came painfully in the 10th inning, as reliever Matt Wisler was called for a walk-off balk, sending Mark Kolozsvary home from third base with the winning run. That, after Nick Senzel bunted Kolozsvary to third, and Wisler walked Albert Amora Jr. and was facing Tyler Naquin.
It marked the first time in franchise history the Rays lost on a walk-off balk and the first time it has happened in the majors since the Dodgers lost to the Mariners on Aug. 18, 2018 in Seattle.
