The Tampa Bay Rays are in the middle of another up-and-down season after finishing just under .500 a year ago. The team is surrounded by talented teams in the American League East, but find themselves near the bottom of the division.

Rays fifth. Danny Jansen pops out to shallow left field to Bo Bichette. Josh Lowe homers to center field. Brandon Lowe strikes out swinging. Junior Caminero singles to left field. Jonathan Aranda called out on strikes. 1 run, 2 hits, 0 errors, 1 left on. Rays 5, Blue jays 2.
