Game 1: The Rays kicked off their 4-game series at Publix Park against the Angels by routing them 15-4. LA couldn't retire Luis Barela, who was 3-3 with 2 HR (#11/12), 2 walks and 6 RBI while Jose Castillo was 4-4 with a HR (#8), a double, 5 runs scored and 2 RBI. And of course Doug Johns got in on the action with a HR (#17) and 3 RBI. Greg Bookhart went to 6-1 after going 5.2 4 4 4 1 8 - he was cruising until all 4 runs came against him in the 6th.

Game 2: Jim Brophy was sharp and so was the offense again in a 6-1 win in the second game. Brophy (5-0) was 5.1 6 1 1 1 6 and Ben Moses collected his 2nd save. The big hits were a bases-clearing triple from Seth Williams and a Chris Fox solo homer (#3).

Game 3: The Rays had the tables turned on them when the Angels erupted for 7 runs in the 8th to break a 4-4 tie and went to defeat Tampa Bay 11-5. Ed Pretty wasn't very pretty today, giving up 4 of those 7 runs but it was still a ballgame when Sean Forbes came in and promptly gave up 3 runs of his own, including a homer. It was probably two years ago that Forbes gave up more than one run in a game. Dan Robinson had a mediocre start at 6.2 8 4 4 0 6 while on offense the Rays got homers from Jose Castillo (#9), Seth Williams (#9) and Jon Callahan (#3).

Game 4: Gordie Ager turned in one of the best performances by a starter this year, a season that's seen the rotation up and down through two months despite the gaudy team record of 39-11 after a 4-1 win. Ager (6-3) went 8 6 1 1 0 7 and Sean Forbes bounced back from his bombing yesterday to get a 1-2-3 9th for save #10. Jon Callahan continues to produce off the bench and today he started and went 2-4 with a double and 2 RBI while Doug Johns was 2-4 with RBI #56 in his 45th game.

Team record: 39-11. Next up: 3 games in Minnesota.
