NEW YORK -- Wins are rather easy to come by when you score runs in bunches of three.
The Rays proved this Sunday, defeating the Yankees, 12-3, at Yankee Stadium behind three-run home runs from Corey Dickerson and Nick Franklin and a three-run double from Evan Longoria. The Rays did a significant chunk of their damage in the fourth inning, scoring six runs and batting around with six players recording hits and Dickerson's and Longoria's blows clearing the bases.
With that sort of a lead, starter Jake Odorizzi did more than enough, allowing just three runs on five hits, two of which were home runs, over six innings.
