The Tampa Bay Rays beat the Atlanta Braves 5-3 on Tuesday night thanks to an offensive effort that featured hits from each of the top seven hitters in the lineup. Erasmo Ramirez pitched fairly well and the bullpen did its job to preserve the win.
Kevin Kiermaier led of the game with a flare down the right field line that fell in and somehow turned it into a triple with some impressive hustle. Steven Souza Jr. singled just past third baseman Pedro Ciriaco to give the Rays the early 1-0 advantage.
