June 3: Off-Day.

June 4: vs Detroit 10-9 W (10). WP-Fairbanks (2-4). Starter-Springs (3 2 2 2 0 6). HR-Yandy Diaz (3), T.Hernandez 2 (14). Another crazy one for the Rays as an early 7-2 lead was lost as was a late 9-8 lead but they still prevailed when J.Lowe delivered a walk-off RBI single in the 10th. Teoscar had a massive game, 3-4 with 2 HR and 4 RBI and Fairbanks earned the win by striking out the side in the top of the 10th.

June 5: vs Detroit 5-4 W. WP-Bradley (9-1, 6.2 2 2 2 0 9). S-Adam (3). HR-Mead (3), J.Lowe (6), Campusano (4). Rays were up 5-0 and Taj was perfect through 6 before things got dicey and they had to hold on for the win.

June 6: vs Detroit 3-4 L (10). LP-Contreras (1-1). Starter-Rasmussen (5.1 5 2 2 2 9). HR-C.Williams (5). Cleavinger lost a 4-3 lead in the 8th and they lost the game in the 10th, missing out on a sweep.

June 7: vs San Diego 4-3 W (10). WP-Fairbanks (3-4). Starter-Littell (6.2 6 2 2 0 3). HR-Caminero (11), Yandy Diaz (4), Westburg (6). Littell bounced back nicely after a couple of bad starts and Yandy's RBI single won it in the 10th. They have developed a bad habit of late of blowing leads and a 3-1 lead disappeared in the 7th and 8th, but have managed to overcome them so far.

June 8: vs San Diego 0-1 L. LP-McClanahan (7-4, 6 5 1 1 1 5). A tough one as they were shut down by San Diego's Robbie Snelling and managed only 4 hits on the night. Mac deserved a better fate.

June 9: vs San Diego 2-7 L. LP-Springs (4-2, 5 6 4 4 1 11). Springs had trouble with Manny Machado, who knocked in 3 of the 4 runs against him and former Ray Zach Eflin largely shut down the offense as the Rays lost two in a row for the first time since May 10-11 at Boston, which was also the last time they lost a series.

Team record: 43-24. We've now dropped 3 1/2 behind seemingly unstoppable Baltimore, which has gone 32-6 since starting the season 14-14. Next week: Road trip time as we start with 4 in Cleveland before finally getting a crack at those Orioles with 3 in Camden Yards.

Players of the Week:

AL: Jackson Holliday (BAL), 11-21, 1 HR, 2 RBI
NL: Adael Amador (COL), 12-25, 1 HR, 5 RBI

On the Farm: Just a note that Durham has the best record in the International League at 37-19, which stands to reason given most of the lineup played for us in the bigs last season. Jose Caballeros, Jonny DeLuca, Richie Palacios, Rene Pinto, Jonathan Aranda, Parker Meadows, Nick Loftin, Randy Vasquez, Reese Olson, Kevin Kelly, Manuel Rodriguez and Nic Enright all could be playing in MLB right now for other teams and give us tremendous depth as we saw when Palacios came up and played well while Caminero was out.
