Odorizzi ends his season on a high note

The Rays right-hander did not allow an earned run in seven innings to finish 2015 at 9-9 with a 3.35 ERA.

Odorizzi plowed through the Marlins' lineup in the early going, holding the Rays in-state rivals hitless through the first four innings.

"I threw a lot of fastballs," Odorizzi said. "Tried to get ahead with the fastball. Challenged them pretty much throughout the whole game. And we kind of made adjustments as the game went along, used more off-speed the third time through. Even that, it was attack. If we give up a hit, oh well, but we're going to try and get early outs.
