Rays 4 Tigers 2: Three-run bombs are the best hits
The Rays won today thanks to another great pitching performance by TBD, and two home-runs, one of the three-run variety.
Hunter Wood became the most recent Rays reliever to start a game, and while he did allow two hits, he got the Rays through the first.
He was followed by Matt Andriese who I thought looked very good today. He gave up 2 runs, with Mikie Mahtook singling and James McCann hitting the two-run homer, and for a while those looked like they could be the deciding runs of the game. But he struck out six in three innings — at one point striking out the side — while allowing just one walk, and I thought looked to be well in command of the game.
