June 7-9, 2030: vs Colorado (3)
Game 1: 5-0 W. WP-Bradley (4-2, 7 3 0 0 1 5). HR-Haro (3), R.Castillo (1). Taj was brilliant again (his last 5 starts: a combined 31.1 16 4 3 7 34 line), and solo homers from Haro and Castillo along with a 2-run Yordan Alvarez single supported him.
Transaction: Junior Caminero comes off the IL and as a reward for his homer last night Robby Castillo is returned to Durham.
Game 2: 3-0 W. WP-German (5-2, 6.2 3 0 0 3 5). S-R.Rodriguez (11). HR-Y.Alvarez (12). More outstanding pitching as German lowers his ERA to 1.99 and Yordan's 2-run homer in the first was all the offense needed.
Game 3: 4-2 W. WP-Evans (5-3, 7.1 3 2 2 0 6). HR-Santana (6). A weekend of superior pitching gave the Rays a sweep and put them a season-high 4 games over .500. Santana's 2-run shot in the 4th broke a 1-1 tie and gave them the win.
Team record: 34-30. Tied with Seattle for the third wild card and we've crept within 4 of Boston for the division lead. Next up: A much tougher opponent as the 41-23 Dodgers visit the Trop for 3 games.
