Rays down on the farm May 2: Snell's rapid ascent continues

Getting promoted did not slow down Blake Snell. His scoreless streak continues.

Triple-A Durham Bulls (13-10)

Durham used three home runs to top Pawtucket by a 5-1 score. Taylor Motter led off the game with his third homer of the season, and J.P. Arencibia's three-run shot in the sixth was the difference. Corey Brown's eighth-inning home run added insurance. Jim Patterson got the spot start and was solid, allowing a run on three hits and a walk in 3 2/3 innings with four strikeouts. Jhan Marinez got the win with three strikeouts in three scoreless innings.
