* With all that went wrong in Sunday’s loss, rookie Brandon Lowe was one of the few highlights, homering for the second straight day to give him a team-high 10. Lowe has made it clear he has his swing back in order after a rough stretch. At this pace, he’d hit 37.
* Charlie Morton’s short outing on Sunday proved surprising given how well he’s pitched for the Rays, usually finding a way to navigate lineups. He’s been sick, and he was on regular not extended rest, but he made no excuses.
* Having two batters hit, one in the head, could the Rays to seek revenge.
