A light but steady rain has been falling for some time at Fenway, bad enough to cause a delay.

A Red Sox official said the rain is likely to remain in the area until about 8 p.m.

For now, the tarp remains on the field and very few fans are in the stands. We will update as warranted.

For what it's worth, the Sox are not as excited as they have been in the past to play the Rays. Boston is 61-23 all-time against the Rays at Fenway. The Rays swept the Sox last weekend in Florida and have won four in a row going back to last season, equalling their longest winning streak ever against Boston.
