Rasmussen allowed one earned run on one hit and two walks while striking out four across four innings in the win over the Red Sox on Thursday. He did not factor into the decision.
Rasmussen was expected to serve as the opener but ended up working through four innings. He allowed just one run on a Rafael Devers double in the fourth inning. The right-hander has given up a run in each of his last three appearances, covering eight frames. Since joining the Rays, he has a 3.81 ERA and 1.23 WHIP with 29 strikeouts over 26 innings.
