June 10: vs Baltimore 7-5 W. WP-Kelly (3-0). S-Maton (1). Starter-Littell (4.2 5 2 2 4 5). Thanks to a 6-run 2nd the Rays built a 7-0 lead and as usual had to watch Baltimore chip away at it before ultimately holding on. A 2-run single from Yandy and a 2-run double from J.Lowe were the big hits.

Transactions: The win over the Orioles was costly as starting SS Jose Caballero fractured a foot and will miss 3 weeks while CF Jose Siri strained his oblique and will be out 3-4 weeks. Oselvis Basabe, who filled in at SS last year when Wander had to go away, and OF Kameron Misner are up from Durham. This would have been Taylor Walls' big chance to return but he strained his groin and is out until mid-late July.

June 11: vs Chicago Cubs 7-6 W. WP-Maton (2-2). S-Fairbanks (9). Starter-Bradley (5.2 6 4 2 1 6). HR-B.Lowe (2), Paredes (15), Caminero (8), J.Lowe (1). Once again the Rays lost a healthy lead, up 5-2 before Chicago got 4 in the 6th. But 2 runs in the 7th, including J.Lowe's first homer of the year won it. Paredes was 3-3 with a double, HR and 2 RBI.

June 12: vs Chicago Cubs 6-13 L (10). LP-Poche (0-3). Starter-Civale (6 6 5 5 2 4). HR-B.Lowe (3), Arozarena (8). Rays lost a 6-5 lead in the 8th and then the roof caved in during the 10th as Chicago scored 7 times off Poche and the hapless Shawn Armstrong. Randy had a rare 3-hit game this season.

June 13: vs Chicago Cubs 9-2 W. WP-Baz (1-1, 5.2 3 2 2 3 8). HR-Palacios 2 (5), Caminero (9). Rays played perhaps their most complete game of the season in romping over the Cubs with Palacios homering twice, Paredes delivering a bases-clearing double, and Baz with his first win in two years thanks to a dominating performance.

June 14: at Atlanta 2-15 L. LP-Pepiot (5-4, 3 9 6 6 1 5). Once again after a nice run at home the Rays go on the road to be pasted by one of MLB's elite. Things got so bad Kameron Misner pitched in the 8th.

June 15: at Atlanta 2-11 L. LP-Littell (3-3, 3 12 9 9 2 1). Another ass-kicking from Atlanta with Littell left in to take a beating since the pen was exhausted yesterday but still had to cover 5 innings.

June 16: at Atlanta 2-4 L. LP-Bradley (2-1, 5 8 4 4 2 1). The best thing you can say about this one is that it wasn't a blowout but it ended up a sweep nonetheless.

Record: 32-40. Next week: A day off then 3 in Minnesota followed by 3 in Pittsburgh.

MLB News: Players of the Week:

AL: Rafael Devers (BOS), .579-2-7
NL: TJ Friedl (CIN), 9-19, 2 HR, 13 RBI

Also on the Monday after the week ended Pittsburgh's Jack Suwinski joined numerous others in tying the record for HR in a game with 4 against Cincinnati, although it might have been the lowest-scoring game with a 4-HR performance as the Pirates beat the Reds 5-3 with Suwinski knocking in all five runs. Elsewhere Toronto's Danny Jansen had a 3-homer game the same day, Jansen's 2nd such game of the season after doing it against the Rays last month.
