Though Blake Snell took the loss for the Rays, the Seattle native's outing proved difficult to evaluate. While five runs scored in 3 1/3 innings on his watch, just one was earned thanks to two errors by shortstop Tim Beckham. On the flip side, Snell did not look as composed as he did in his Major League debut on April 23 when he allowed one run in five innings against the Yankees in New York.
Steve Pearce went 3-for-5 with an RBI to pace the Rays' offense, but he struck out with the bases loaded to end the Rays' eighth.
