Game 1: The rough road trip for the Rays continued when they Madduxed by Seattle's Willie Gutierrez in a 4-0 loss. Gutierrez allowed them only a pair of singles, both from Daniel Vasquez, as he shut them out on only 95 pitches. Nate Thompson pitched well (6 7 3 2 1 4) but can't you can't win with zero run support.

Game 2: Seattle was up 10-1 by the 4th inning as the Rays got a taste of the beatings they often dish out in an 11-6 loss, their fourth in five games. Tim Gates didn't have it, although he was one out away from getting out of the 1st with only one run allowed before he gave up a bases-clearing triple and 5 runs in the inning. He was hit some more, and finished a brutal 3.1 8 8 8 3 4. Mike McKee valiantly tried to keep the Rays in it, homering twice, doubling and driving in 4 to give him 12 longballs on the year while Ben Hill, who's slumped overall on this trip, added a 2-run homer (#18).

Game 3: The Rays salvaged the final game of the trip with a 7-5 win, although they had to overcome blowing a 5-2 lead first. Jim Gebers' solo homer in the 7th (#8) broke a 5-5 tie, and Daniel Vasquez, who had doubled in two runs earlier, singled in an insurance run in the 8th. Ron Adams started and looked good early, but couldn't keep the lead and ended up 5.2 7 5 3 3 6 with a Vasquez error costing a couple of runs. Joe Trader picked up win #4 in relief and Kikuo Kawase recorded save #15. Quincy Siegle had a pair of RBI singles earlier to help build the initial lead.

Team record: 42-17. Next up: An off-day then mercifully back home for 3 against the White Sox.
