Game 1: 11-9 W. WP-Eldridge (2-0, 5 9 6 6 1 6). S-Diaz (4). HR-Wood (1), Franco (3), Luciano (2), Caminero (2), DeLoach (4). Rays overcame a 2-HR, 4-RBI game from Shohei Ohtani by hitting 5 of their own including a Wood grand slam with Caminero knocking in 3. Ryan Okuda did it again, giving up 3 in the 9th and necessitating Diaz to come in for the save.

Transaction: JP Sears suffered a biceps strain and will be out 5-6 weeks. He'll be sorely missed as he's been kind the glue of our staff in long/middle relief these last few years. We purchased the contract of Daniel Espino from Durham to take over his role.

Game 2: 7-6 W (12). WP-Espino (1-0). Starter-Bradley (5.1 6 4 4 0 3). HR-Santana (5), Wood 2 (3). Once again the Rays overcame a pair of Ohtani homers as James Wood matched him with his own pair, including the equalizer in the 8th and then Wood capped his 2nd straight 4-RBI day by singling in the walk-off winner in the 12th as the teams traded the lead five times today. Daniel Espino recorded the win in his Rays debut.

Game 3: 6-8 L (14). LP-Okuda (0-3). Starter-Orze (3.2 1 1 1 3 2, 86 pitches). HR-DeLoach (5). Rays led this one 4-2 going into the 8th when Charlie Ruegger gave up back-to-back homers to Rendon and Trout and then Jovani Moran came in and gave up a third straight homer to none other than Ohtani, his 5th in the 3-game series. DeLoach's dramatic 2-out homer in the 9th tied it and the Rays squandered several chances in extras to win it before we were forced to turn to Okuda as the only rested pitcher in the pen in the 13th. He got through that inning but his new frontiers in suckitude continued by allowing 2 in the 14th. He actually lowered his ERA to 19.96 in the outing with 17 runs allowed in 7 2/3 IP this season. He's out of options so he can't be sent to the minors and he still has good ratings so I'm not sure what to do with him.

Team record: 8-11. Next up: 3 games in Baltimore.
