June 10: at Cleveland 0-2 L. LP-Bradley (9-2, 6.2 7 2 2 1 5). Rays only managed 4 hits against Joey Cantillo and the Cleveland bullpen as they were shut out for the second time in three games and have lost three straight for only the second time all season.

June 11: at Cleveland 3-8 L. LP-Cleavinger (1-1). Starter-Rasmussen (6 5 3 3 0 9). You wouldn't know it by the final score but the Rays battled back from a 3-0 deficit to tie it up in the 8th, only for Cleavinger to implode with he and Baz combining to allow 5 in the bottom of the 8th to send them to their 4th straight defeat.

June 12: at Cleveland 0-8 L. LP-Littell (3-4, 4 5 5 5 3 4). Littell was shelled for the third time in four games, the team was shut out for the third time in five and the losing streak reached 5 as the Rays are really in a bad run. Littell's rotation days may be numbered with Baz and Pepiot ready to step in.

June 13: at Cleveland 0-2 L. LP-McClanahan (7-5, 6.2 6 2 2 2 4). This is getting ridiculous now as Shane Bieber went 8 1 0 0 0 11 against them with Isaac's single in the 6th their only hit. 6 straight losses and 4 shutouts in that stretch, not the way they wanted to be heading into Baltimore.

June 14: at Baltimore 4-6 L (10). LP-Adam (3-3). Starter-Springs (7 6 2 2 1 7). HR-Caminero (12). This one really hurt. Aside from being their 7th straight defeat they took a 4-2 lead into the 8th only for Cleavinger to melt down again, allowing a 2-run homer to the immortal Tyrone Taylor. And then in the 10th Adam lost it on a 2-run homer by...Taylor again.

June 15: at Baltimore 0-3 L. LP-Bradley (9-3, 5.2 7 3 3 2 7). Here we go again, shut out for the fifth time in eight games and 8 straight defeats as the Rays suffer a June swoon of epic proportions. Only 4 hits today.

June 16: at Baltimore 9-21 L. LP-Rasmussen (4-3, 3.2 8 7 7 2 6). HR-Mead (4), Yandy Diaz (5), Siri (2). The good news - we scored 9 runs! That's as many as they scored in the previous 8 games combined. The bad news - well duh, 21 runs against and a 9th straight loss. Everyone who took the mound today was torched and we had to have Jordan Westburg pitch the 8th against his old team, giving up a 2-run homer to put the O's over 20. Don't think I've had a Rays team in all of my many saves lose 9 straight, but here we are all the more shocking as they were 43-21 before this streak started. By the way former Ray Brandon Lowe got his revenge in this series, going 7-12 with 3 HR and 7 RBI.

Team record: 43-30. We're now a whopping 9 1/2 behind the Orioles, who continue to run roughshod on MLB on a 38-7 run. Next week: Mercifully we get a day off before a chance to finally get right with 3 games against the 25-47 Blue Jays, beginning a homestand that sees Washington follow for 3.

Players of the Week:

AL: Taylor Ward (LA) 12-25, 2 HR, 8 RBI
NL: Manny Machado (SD) 9-20, 3 HR, 10 RBI. He started heating up the previous weekend against us.
