The win streak came to a crashing halt as the Rays trounced the Jays 10-0.

This was an ugly game as the Rays kept stealing and trying to steal when up 8-0 and then 10-0. A frustrated Jays staff kept 'sending them messages' but they never got the hint.

With the AL East as close as it is, a series against the Yankees is incredibly important. Add to that, the fact that this is the first meeting of the two clubs since the big trade.
