June 10-12, 2030: vs LA Dodgers (3)

Game 1: 4-3 W. WP-E.Alcantara (3-4). S-Riley (5). Starter-Eldridge (4.1 2 1 1 2 6). HR-Caminero (7). Caminero's solo homer in the 7th broke a 3-3 tie after Alcantara blew a 3-0 lead for Eldridge, who had to leave with a minor blister injury. Yordan Alvarez had a 2-run double.

Game 2: 9-4 W. WP-Khattak (8-2, 7 2 1 1 2 5). HR-Caminero (8), Y.Alvarez (13). Yordan knocked in 5 with a bases-loaded walk and a 440-ft grand slam to dead center while Wander was 4-4 with an RBI to back a sterling outing from Khattak and make it 6 straight wins for the Rays.

Game 3: 6-10 L. LP-Okuda (0-2). Starter-Bradley (3.1 8 6 5 0 4). HR-Y.Alvarez (14). The pitching let the Rays down with Bradley's awful start. Although the Rays battled back to tie at 6 the bullpen then failed with Okuda, Orze and Victor Gonzalez combining to allow the 4 runs which made the difference. Wander was 3-5 with 2 RBI and Alvarez homered again to cap a great series for both.

Team record: 36-31. Boston swept its series to push the Rays 5 games back in the division, but they are in the second wild card spot. Next up: An off-day then off to Chicago to play 3 against the White Sox.
