Tsutsugo gets key hit as Rays beat Braves 5-2

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) -- Yoshi Tsutsugo hit a two-run single during Tampa Bay's five-run third inning, and the Rays beat the Atlanta Braves 5-2 on Tuesday night for their fourth straight win.

Yonny Chirinos pitched four effective innings for Tampa Bay after missing part of summer camp following a positive coronavirus test. He allowed one run and four hits.

The Rays loaded the bases in the third on three walks, and then chased Kyle Wright (0-1) with three consecutive two-out hits.

After Tsutsugo delivered, Jose Martinez and Joey Wendle added run-scoring singles.
