Rollin' along...
The Rays turned on the offense tonight after only scoring 3 times in Game 1, banging out 19 hits in a 10-3 rout of the Mariners to go up 2-0 in the ALCS. They scored early and often even though Gordie Ager didn't need too much support after pitching 8 innings with one earned run allowed. Jimmy Leonard had a big early homer, Doug Johns 3 hits including a bases-clearing double which broke the game open, and even the scuffling Dan Gregory had 3 hits. Brad Jackson will try to give the Rays an overwhelming 3-0 lead in a couple of days at Seattle.
