Rays 4 - Phillies 5: Rays find ways to lose in 10 innings to the worst team in baseball

The Rays took on the league-worst Philadelphia Phillies in a matinee' rubber match at Citizen's Bank Park. The Rays' sent Jake Odorizzi to the hill, looking to make up for a rocky outing his last time in Toronto, while the Phillies sent the soft-throwing rookie left-hander Adam Morgan to the mound. A solid, consistent performer with a sub-3.00 ERA for the Rays taking on an anemic Phillies offense, and a weak, untested rookie taking on an . . . equally anemic Rays offense - what could go wrong?

In short: Lots of things.
