Monday harkens the beginning of a tough stretch of seven games against a pair of division leaders, heading into the All Star Break. First stop Kansas City, where the Rays will take on the reigning American League champions.
The Tampa Bay Rays head north after taking two of three from the Angels, including a big come from behind, extra inning victory Wednesday night. Down 4-0, Joey Butler and Steven Souza Jr. homered in a five run sixth inning before Kevin Kiermaier walked it off with solo shot in the top of the 10th.
The Minnesota Twins rallied late in the seventh inning in the series opener on Friday, overcoming a one-run lead and defeating the Tampa Bay Rays by a score of 3-2 — snapping Tampa Bay’s three-game win streak.
The Tampa Bay Rays started their home road series well, blanking the Baltimore Orioles 2-0 at Tropicana Field on Friday night. Alex Colome and four relievers combined for dominant a four-hit shutout, and didn’t allow a runner past first base the entire game. Tampa Bay is 13-10 on the season, while Baltimore is 10-11.
