Bartolo Colon just completed his first outing with the Red Sox and looked good. The right-hander threw 26 pitches (18 strikes) and allowed one run (solo homer) on two hits with one walk and one strikeout.

He retired the first two batters he faced in the second inning before surrendering a solo homer to the Rays' Jon Weber, who crushed the first offering over the right-center field wall. Tampa leads 1-0.

Kyle Snyder will replace Colon in the third.
