Joyce is the first major leaguer in 2013 to post 5+ RBIs and the game-winner in the ninth inning or later. The only other Tampa Bay players to do that are Miguel Cairo in 2000 at Minnesota, Delmon Young against the Rangers at Walt Disney World in 2007, and Carlos Pena against the Yankees at Tropicana Field in 2012.
