The Rays kicked off the second half in style, pummeling Dylan Bundy early and beating the Orioles 16-4 at Camden Yards. The Rays batted around twice in the game, in the first and then again in the seventh, while Yonny Chirinos ate innings like a champ.
The Rays put up a crooked number in the first on the beleaguered Orioles, effectively ending the night before it really got started. It started harmlessly enough, when All-Star Austin Meadows grounded out. Tommy Pham followed by lofting a lazy fly the other way that Just. Kept. Going.
Kevin Kiermaier followed that by lacing a double up the left field line.
