Game 1: Randy Mastropietro returned to his 2053 form and pitched the Rays to a 3-1 win in the opener at Publix Park. The lefty evened his record at 3-3 with an outstanding 7.2 5 1 1 1 3 outing and Edgar Voisin had a 1-2-3 9th for his 10th save. All 3 Rays runs came on solo homers with both Avaloses homering in the 4th, the 9th for both Jesus and Ezequiel, and Nesty de la Rosa added #6 for insurance in the 8th.

Game 2: Baltimore went up 8-3 and the Rays came back to erase that lead in a patented Publix Park shootout, but the Orioles wouldn't play by the script and scored twice in the 10th to win anyway 10-8. Brad Villarreal had a wild start (4 5 6 2 4 3) and was hurt by a Jose Machado error to put them in the hole before they came back to tie it at 8 on 2 RBI from Nesty de la Rosa and a 2-run Doug Johns single. But Edgar Voisin (1-2) put two men on in the 10th in his second inning of work and Joe Roberts gave up a single to let them both score.

Game 3: Tampa Bay took the rubber match in emphatic fashion, blowing out Baltimore 11-3. Tim Johnson (2-2) didn't allow a hit until the 5th and finished 5.2 3 3 3 3 8 for the win. Danny Morales and Dantel Chinchilla each drove in 3 runs while Nesty de la Rosa was 3-5 with 2 RBI and Jose Machado knocked in a pair with a double.

Team record: 21-13. Frustratingly the Yankees swept their series to improve to 28-7 so the Rays lost ground, falling 6 1/2 back. Next up: 4 games at Fenway against the Sox.
