April 26-28, 2030: vs Toronto (3)

Game 1: 2-3 L. LP-Eldridge (1-4, 5 6 3 2 2 5). Rays tied it in the 5th on Yordan Alvarez's 2-run single but Toronto got the winner in the 6th and that was the end of the scoring.

Game 2: 7-3 W. WP-Khattak (4-0, 6 7 3 3 1 5). HR-Viera (2), Arakawa (5). Viera's 2-run homer in the 1st and Arakawa's slam in the 3rd staked the Rays to a 6-0 lead and they never looked back as Khattak's strong start to the season continued.

Game 3: 6-0 W. WP-German (3-0, 6.2 1 0 0 4 9). HR-E.Green (4), Caminero (4), Alvarez (3). This was a 1-0 game until the bottom of the 8th on a Green triple and run scored before Tampa Bay bats unloaded for 5 runs on 3 homers. Luis German was dominant and lowered his ERA to 1.23 in the process.

Team record: 13-13. Believe it or not, that's actually good enough for the third wild card spot but we're still 6 behind Boston which is off to a 19-7 start. Next up: An off-day then the Angels visit for 3 games.

MLB News: The Dodgers are on a 14-game winning streak, now 20-6 after starting the year 6-6. Also three star players are done for the year or nearly so as the Cubs' Trea Turner broke his kneecap, Miami's Marcelo Mayer broke a bone in his elbow and the Cardinals' Aaron Judge tore a back muscle. Of the three only Judge might be back in September.
