Rays 5, Rangers 9: Rough night for Ras

The Rays are in Arlington and facing the Texas Rangers in the first game of a four-game series. Drew Rasmussen is on the mound for the Rays against right-handed pitcher Glenn Otto.

Wander Franco drew the first walk of the game with one out in the first inning after Kevin Kiermaier grounded out to start things off. Randy Arozarena was hit by a pitch, and both runners moved up on a Ji-Man Choi flyout, which would have been a three-run home run had it not been spectacularly robbed by Eli White. Francisco Mejia struck out looking to end the inning.
