May 19-21, 2031: vs Washington (3)

Game 1: 2-5 L. LP-Khattak (4-2, 6 6 3 3 2 5). HR-E.Green (5). Khattak gave up a couple of homers to put them behind and Okuda gave up a back-breaking 2-run shot in the 8th to put it out of reach as the bats managed only four hits.

Game 2: 1-2 L (11). LP-Ogando (1-3). Starter-Eldridge (6.2 6 1 0 2 4). Another anemic performance at the plate wasted a good start from Eldridge, who's been on a roll after a nightmarish start to the season. Unfortunately Ogando gave up a homer in the 11th, making it three straight losses in as many appearances for the righty.

Transactions: Yordan Alvarez was activated from his rehab and Manny Tovar was optioned to Durham. Additionally, Marco Luciano strained his hamstring last night and will be out a month so Victor Mesa was called up.

Game 3: 4-2 W. WP-German (5-3, 5.2 3 1 1 2 6). S-Ogando (1). HR-Mendez (1). German was dazzling while Hendry Mendez had a nice game, hitting a solo shot for his first MLB homer and singling in another run. This makes three straight series the Rays have won the finale to avoid being swept, not a great recipe for success.

Team record: 21-21, a whopping 7 behind Toronto and tied for the third wild card. Next up: An off-day then 3 games in Philadelphia where the Phillies are 24-17.
