Sizzling 6-run 3rd lifts Rays past Orioles

ST. PETERSBURG -- A big inning offensively for the Rays and another gutsy performance from the relievers on "bullpen day" led the way to a 8-3 win over the visiting Orioles at Tropicana Field on Sunday.

The Rays scored six runs against Baltimore starter Kevin Gausman in the bottom of the third to erase an early three-run deficit left by "starter" Sergio Romo, who could not make it out of the first inning for a second straight appearance. Romo, making his fourth start in nine games, loaded the bases in the first with just one out before being pulled in favor of reliever Vidal Nuno.
