Game 1: Melvin Delgado, who missed out on a shutout by one out last time on the mound, got one today as the Rays blanked the Yankees 7-0. The righty improved to 2-1 after a rough beginning to the season with today's 9 5 0 0 0 5 gem on 120 pitches. All seven runs came in the first three innings with five of them scored in the first, capped by a bases-clearing double from former Yankee farmhand Chris Kidd, who added an RBI single later and went 3-4 with 4 RBI on the day.

Game 2: Seems like it's feast or famine for the bats this year and today they were famished in a 2-1 loss. Ruben Ramirez's RBI double in the 7th was all they could manage, consigning Greg Bookhart who went 4.2 7 2 2 2 3 to his first loss of the season against four wins.

Game 3: The offense resumed feasting in the finale as the Rays took the series with a 10-1 win which featured Dave Rose as the latest Rays pitcher to just miss out, finishing one out shy of a shutout. Rose went 8.2 7 1 0 2 3 on 121 pitches, walking in a run during an inning prolonged by an error with two out but still improving to 2-2. Jon Morales and Luis Barela led the attack with both going deep twice and driving in three runs, giving Morales 7 and Barela 8 homers on the season. Juan Davila also knocked in a pair.

Team record: 20-12, now 3 up on Baltimore which was swept by the high-flying Detroit Tigers who are off to a 24-8 start and who just happen to be our next opponent, coming to Publix Park for 3. It'll be a good early-season measuring stick.
