July 9: Off-Day.

July 10: at San Diego 8-5 W. WP-Sheehan (7-5, 5 4 3 3 2 4). S-Klein (24). HR-Cermak (19). Rays jumped out to a 6-1 lead and saw the Padres get within 6-5 before Cermak's 2-run homer in the 9th put it away. Hays had his best day as a Ray, 3-5 with 4 RBI including a bases-clearing double.

July 11: at San Diego 1-4 L. LP-H.Smith (8-4, 6 6 3 3 2 5). HR-C.Williams (14). Only five hits tonight as the offense took a holiday and the Rays fell to the Padres.

July 12: at San Diego 4-11 L. LP-Misiorowski (4-6, 2 6 8 8 4 2). HR-Hays (1). After throwing 7+ no-hit innings last time out, Mis was as terrible as he was great in his previous start, giving up 3 more homers as the Rays lost the series.

July 13: at LA Dodgers 0-6 L. LP-Bradley (8-6, 5.1 5 3 3 0 7). Three straight losses for the Rays as they let a 1-0 game get out of hand with 5 in the 6th by the Dodgers including a Bryan Reynolds grand slam. Only 4 hits for the bats, who have scuffled of late.

July 14: at LA Dodgers 1-4 L. LP-McGee (10-4, 5.1 4 2 2 2 8). HR-Kjerstad (10). A 1-1 game got away when LA scored 3 in the 6th and runs continue scarce for the stumbling Rays.

July 15: at LA Dodgers 5-10 L. LP-Mercedes (2-2). Starter-Sheehan (3.2 8 2 2 0 6). HR-Montes (19). A disastrous west coast trip concluded with the Rays' fifth straight loss as they are glad to see the All-Star break. They actually got some runs today and led this one 4-2 in the 6th before the bottom fell out, especially when LA scored 5 in the 8th to snap a 5-5 tie. Montes broke out of a slump going 3-4 with a HR and 3 RBI but the pitching was bad today and didn't get good news when setup man McMillon had to leave with a strained shoulder which will shelve him 5-6 weeks.

Team record: 59-39. And to make matters worse the Orioles kept winning all week (except for Sunday at least) and have cut the Rays' division lead to a 3 games and a mere 2 in the loss column. Next week: The break, after which we play 3 at home against Cleveland. Expect some roster changes when play resumes.

Players of the Week:

AL: Nolan Schanuel (LA), 7-20, 4 HR, 12 RBI
NL: Ronald Acuna Jr (ATL), 13-25, 4 HR, 10 RBI
