Rays closer Fernando Rodney continued to struggle as he blew his league-leading fifth save Saturday against the Yankees.
Rodney, who entered the game in the ninth with a two-run lead, surrendered a two-out, run-scoring double to Brennan Boesch and a run-scoring single to Brett Gardner to tie the game. He was charged with two runs on two hits and a walk while striking out one in his inning.
Rodney has allowed seven runs over his last 4 2/3 innings. He has converted two of his last five save opportunities over that span.
