July 25-27, 2031: vs Baltimore (3)
Game 1: 11-4 W. WP-German (7-3, 5 5 3 3 2 7). HR-Solano (10), Luciano (4), Mesa (3). Home cooking tasted sweet again for the Rays, who are now 37-13 at the Trop after today's rout. Victor Mesa couldn't be retired, going 3-3 with 2 walks and the homer, while Luciano and Elijah Green each plated a pair.
Game 2: 1-4 L. LP-Bradley (9-6, 5 3 1 1 3 4). Tough loss for Taj and a rare loss for the team at home as the offense couldn't do anything until they scratched a consolation run home in the 9th.
Game 3: 4-1 W. WP-Armstrong (4-3). S-R.Rodriguez (22). Starter-Acosta (5 2 1 1 1 6). HR-Caminero (8). Junior Caminero is having a miserable season but he came through big today, hitting a solo homer to lead off the 8th and break a 1-1 tie. Angel Rivera's 2-run double later in the frame provided insurance. Rodolfo Solano charged the mound after he was hit following Caminero's homer and will be suspended for 3 games, just as Albies is set to come off the restricted list.
Team record: 58-42. Still 1 1/2 up on Toronto which also took 2 of 3. Next up: 41-60 Oakland visits for 3 games.
