Game 1: The Rays suffered a rare loss when the Angels came back to score 3 in the 8th off Dave Rose and take a 5-4 win. Rose (17-6) finished 8 12 5 5 1 7 in marathon outing for him and Jon Morales had the big hit for Tampa Bay, a 3-run homer (#40).

Game 2: Tampa Bay took a back-and-forth affair 6-5 from the Angels in the second game. They relied on the longball today with Jon Morales hitting 2 more homers, both solo, to give him 42 and Jon McGovern (#10) and Dantel Chinchilla (#12) also went deep. Rex Bransington went 4 8 4 3 0 3, Melvin Lopez (2-0) got the win and Steve Talbott equaled Fernando Rodney's single-season team saves record with his 49th.

Game 3: The Rays took the series from LA with a 5-2 win in the finale and the big news was that Steve Talbott became the first Rays reliever to reach the 50-save mark, breaking Fernando Rodney's 39-year-old record. Chris Kidd was the hitting hero today after blasting a 2-run homer in the 7th, his first of the year, to break a 2-2 tie in the 7th. Jon Morales hit his 4th homer of the series and 43rd of the year to provide some insurance. Chad Winger went 5 4 1 1 3 4 with Chris Hetzel (5-2) vulturing the win from him by allowing the tying run in the 6th.

Team record: 112-37. Next up: 3 games in Oakland.
