Backed by a big day from Brandon Lowe, some great glove (and bat) work from Joey Wendle, and a solid showing from Ryan Yarbrough, the Rays racked up yet another series win, beating Cleveland 6-4 and improving to ten games over .500 at 73-63. With Oakland’s win over Seattle, the Rays sit seven back of Oakland and two behind Seattle in the loss column in the race for the final Wild Card slot.
Diego Castillo got his fourth opener chance and was solid once again. Throwing an easy 101 mph on the fastball and 92 on the slider, he cruised through the first.
