Another good series for the Rays as they took 2 of 3 in Anaheim. Baltimore is now the second place team after taking 3 of 4 from the Yankees and 12 of 14 overall; they sit 3 games back.

Michael Prosecky was outstanding and the Rays banged out 16 hits in the opener as they rolled over the Angels 7-2. Prosecky (6-3) took a 1-hit shutout into the 8th before putting a man on who eventually scored and finished 7 2 1 1 3 8. Joshua Baez and Andrew Greckel led the offense, each 2-5 with a homer and 2 RBI, the 8th for Baez and 18th for Greckel. Chris Gutierrez also had a big game, going 3-5 with a triple, homer (#4) and RBI.

James Hays was roughed up a bit and the Rays dropped a 5-2 decision to the Angels in the second game. Hays gave up a pair of homers, the second a 3-run shot to Anthony Rendon, and although the runs were unearned the poor outing was on him as he dropped to 4-4 after going 5 7 5 2 2 10. Dong-hwan Kim was 2-4 with an RBI double.

Transaction: After the second game Kendall Williams was placed on the 15-day IL with back stiffness and since Robinson Ortiz isn't quite recovered from his oblique we needed a starter for the third game so Dave Cedeno was summoned for Durham. The one-time elite prospect is probably is down to 3rd-4th starter upside.

The Rays took the finale and the series with a 6-4 win. Joshua Baez had his biggest game as a Ray, 3-5 with a 2-run double, RBI single and solo homer (#9) and Dave Cedeno got past allowing a 3-run homer in the first to Jo Adell to settle in and pick up his first MLB win after losing all 3 of his starts with us last season. Cedeno finished 5.1 5 3 3 2 4 and while not a work of art it was good enough today. Yasunari Uehara seems to be back in form and had a 1-2-3 9th for save #15.

Transaction: After the game Cedeno was optioned back to Durham and Cody Adcock was recalled to give us another bullpen arm.

Team record: 37-24. Next up: An off-day then we head the other coast for 3 at Yankee Stadium.

MLB News: Cody Bellinger hit his 400th homer for the Dodgers but they also lost starter Walker Buehler for the rest of the season with a torn meniscus.
