Wells lost track of how many outs there were in the bottom of the ninth, making the final out of a tied game against the Tampa Bay Rays.

Anthony Volpe, mired in a defensive slump, had just crushed a game-tying, solo homer off Rays closer Pete Fairbanks, clapping back at the two-run, go-ahead blast that Josh Lowe launched off Devin Williams in the top of the inning. Austin Wells quickly followed with a single, putting the winning run on with one out.
