Transaction: Wander hits the IL with his hip strain and 3B Freili Encarnacion is up from Durham. Encarnacion filled in admirably for Marco Luciano in the second half of last season and he'll get to play some with Luciano shifting to SS at times.

Game 1: 8-6 W. WP-Dodson (1-0). S-Diaz (9). Starter-Orze (3.1 6 5 5 2 3). HR-Santana 2 (12). Rays erased 3-0 and 5-3 deficits largely thanks to a pair of 2-run shots from Santana, the second of which put them ahead to stay. Caminero was 2-4 with 2 RBI and the rookie Haro was 3-5 with 2 doubles, a triple and a ribbie.

Game 2: 11-6 W. WP-Dodson (2-0). Starter-German (3.2 7 5 5 2 5). HR-E.Green (5), Santana (13). Rays scored 5 in the first and never trailed, although German couldn't handle the lead given to him. In addition to another Santana 2-run homer, Lee and Luciano each drove in a pair.

Game 3: 7-5 W (10). WP-Diaz (2-2). Starter-Swanda (6 7 5 5 2 6). HR-Santana (14). Swanda put them in an early 5-0 hole before he settled in and the pen was sparkling, buying them time for a comeback which saw Santana come off the bench and hit a 2-run pinch-homer in the 9th, his 4th of the series. Caminero then drove in his 3rd run of the game with an RBI single in the 10th and Elijah Green's RBI double provided insurance as the Rays swept the A's and made it 9 wins in their last 10 and 11 in their last 13. And at least this run has been good enough to propel them into first place as the Jays dropped a couple of games.

Team record: 28-23. Next up: off to Kansas City for 3 games.
