Looking Backward While Moving Forward: Rays Rally Late, Take 5-4 Win Over Oakland

For the first time in 50 attempts, the Tampa Bay Rays notched their first ninth-inning comeback of the season, as the team rallied for two runs late and won 5-4 over the Oakland Athletics. The Rays (62-61) have now won three straight and start the days just 1-1/2 games back in the Wildcard race.

Looking Backward While Moving Forward: Jennings and Smyly Lead Rays to 2-1 Win

After putting together a shaky start against the Rangers, Drew Smyly bounced back to posit his first win in 358 days. Smyly tossed 5-2/3 innings of scoreless ball, while Desmond Jennings homered and drove in both runs, as the Tampa Bay Rays survived a challenging ninth and beat the Oakland Athletics by a 2-1 margin, on Friday. Tampa Bay now is back at .500, only two games out in the Wildcard race.
