The Tampa Bay Rays lose a tough game 4-3 to the Astros. The Astros got on the Rays early with a 3 run 2nd inning. The Rays would respond in the 5th and 6th inning. First it was Danny Jansen hitting a 2 run home run in the 5th to make it 3-2. Then Jose Caballero would hit an RBI double to tie the game. The Astros would instantly retake the lead in the top of the 7th with another home run to make it 4-3. The Rays would get a runner in scoring position in the 7th, 8th, and 9th inning but could not come up with the big hit needed to tie the game. The Rays will look to even the series tomorrow night.

The Tampa Bay Rays suffered their worst series loss of the year, losing to the Miami Marlins 5-1. The Rays scored first in the 3rd inning off a Yandy Diaz fielders choice to make it 1-0. But the Rays could not take advantage of having bases loaded 0 outs to extent the lead. Shane Baz was not very good today for the Rays. He ended up going 6 IP but gave up 5 ER, 9 hits and had more walks than strike outs. The Marlins had control for most of the game as the Rays finish the road trip 3-3. Tampa will start a long home stand tomorrow night vs the Astros.
