Casali, 2 relievers called up as rosters expand

CHICAGO -- The Rays' first three September callups had a smooth flight back to a Major League clubhouse Friday against the White Sox at Guaranteed Rate Field. Or at least one of them did.

The Rays officially recalled catcher Curt Casali, left-hander Adam Kolarek and right-hander Ryne Stanek from Triple-A Durham to their Major League roster Friday, with the trio arriving in Chicago on Thursday at approximately 1 p.m. With the flight being fairly last-minute, only Casali got a first-class ticket, one-upping Kolarek and Stanek by saying he had more service time than the relievers.
