Game 1: It was a complete and utter annihilation of the Jays by the Rays today in the opener at Rogers Centre, a 17-2 win. Tampa Bay didn't waste any time scoring 7 runs in the first inning and piling on from there. Luis Barela was 2-4 with HR #28 and 5 RBI, Jon Morales was 3-5 with HR #21, 2 RBI and scored 5 runs, tying the team record, and Jon McGovern was 4-6 with a triple and 2 batted in. Juan Davila added HR #23 as 11 different Rays had hits. Dave Rose eased to 11-1 with the support, going 6 6 2 2 1 6 and Jimmy Bernal went the final three scoreless for his first save.

Game 2: The shoe was on the other foot today as the Jays got some revenge by routing the Rays 8-3. Rex Bransington (4-2) wasn't his best at 5 6 4 4 3 4, and Luis Barela accounted for all the Tampa Bay scoring with a 2-run homer and a solo shot to give him 30 homers for the 12th straight year, only failing to reach the mark in his rookie half-season in 2039 with Philadelphia.

Game 3: After a pair of routs going each way the teams split the difference with a close one in the finale as the Rays held on to prevail 6-5. All the Tampa Bay scoring came in the first three innings with Alex Duran leading the way, driving in 4 on a 3-run homer in the 1st (#16) and a sac fly in the 3rd. Alec McInerney went to 3-0 despite a lousy outing of 5.2 9 5 5 1 3 with a pair of homers allowed but the bullpen was sparking, holding Toronto hitless over the final 3 1/3 with Steve Talbott earning save #28.

Team record: 64-24. The 4 1/2-game on the Yankees was maintained and next up after an off-day we travel to Austin to play the AL Central-leading Dukes for 3 games before hitting the All-Star break.
