September 12-14, 2031: vs Kansas City (3)

Transaction: .300-hitting Nelson Haro is done for the regular season with a sprained ankle. He should be available in the second week of October, assuming we're playing then, but it's a blow to a team that struggles to score runs at times. Isaac Cedillos, our SS of the future who was out since April with a broken kneecap, is back up after some rehab at Durham.

Game 1: 1-5 L
. LP-Eldridge (7-9, 6 5 3 3 2 2). HR-Albies (17). Bats only managed four hits on a dismal night at the Trop.

Game 2: 7-5 W. WP-Ogando (4-4). S-R.Rodriguez (29). Starter-Evans (3 5 3 3 3 3). HR-Hardy (26), Solano (17). A thrilling win that saw the Rays complete a comeback from 5-1 down with Solano's 3-run pinch-homer in the 8th. Hardy was 2-3 with 3 runs scored, a double, homer, walk and 2 RBI.

Game 3: 2-4 L. LP-Khattak (12-9, 5 7 3 3 1 4). HR-Solano (18). This one always seemed just out of their grasp as they dropped a key September series at home. Solano brought in both runs with a solo homer and bases-loaded walk but opportunities were squandered.

Team record: 79-64. Luckily Toronto also lost 2 of 3 so the Rays remain 1 1/2 games up as three more days come off the calendar. Next up: 3 games in Cleveland.
