On the 59th game of the season, the Rays will face off against the Baltimore Orioles for the second time this season. After yesterday’s tough and frustrating loss, Taj Bradley and the Rays will try to force the rubber match.
In the bottom of the first inning, Ryan Mountcastle turned around a 96 mph fastball that was on the inside part of the plate. Siri was close to rubbing another homer, but his efforts weren’t enough. This was Mountcastle’s first homer since May 8th. A couple of pitches later, Anthony Santander deposited a cutter into Eutaw Street. Back-to-back jacks for Orioles and they lead 3-0 after only one inning.
