The 2013 American League Wild Card Game was a play-in game during Major League Baseball's (MLB) 2013 postseason played between the American League's (AL) two wild card teams, the Cleveland Indians and the Tampa Bay Rays (the latter winners of a one-game tie-breaker against the Texas Rangers). It was held at Progressive Field in Cleveland, Ohio, on October 2, 2013. The Rays won by a 4–0 score and advanced to the AL Division Series to face the Boston Red Sox, who went on to become the World Series champion of that year. The game was televised on TBS.
Rays starting pitcher Alex Cobb recorded 6 2/3 shutout innings and five strikeouts. Delmon Young led off the top of the third inning with a home run, Desmond Jennings hit a two-run double in the fourth, and Yunel Escobar had a one-run single in the ninth.
