Top 8th: Rays get run back

Alex Wilson, pitching the eighth inning for the Tigers, allowed a run on a long homer to left field by Steve Pearce. Two batters later, he issued a two-out walk to Logan Morrison. Kevin Kiermaier grounded into a force play to end the half inning, but after six and a half the Rays have a 7-5 lead.
