The Rays managed a satisfying come from behind win over the Toronto Blue Jays, taking an eighth inning leading and holding it to win the second game of the series.
Brent Honeywell started this in the opener role, the talk being that it would be easier for this starting pitcher to take the mound in the first inning than to come in a relief role. But that didn’t seem to work. He started out by giving up a hard hit single to Cavan Biggio, but then came back to strike out the next two batters. Rowdy Tellez hit a routine grounder to the third base side, but the infield was shifted to defend against this left handed power hitter so the routine grounder was a single.
