Tampa Bay Beats Toronto, 4-2
The Tampa Bay Rays defeated the Toronto Blue Jays, 4-2, in American League action at Rogers Centre. Tampa Bay pitcher Yonny Chirinos had a standout performance. In 8 innings, Chirinos surrendered 6 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 1. He allowed 2 runs. Nick Anderson notched his 10th save in 13 chances.

It could have been a different outcome for Tampa Bay, had it not been for Manuel Margot, the 25-year old center fielder . Margot contributed a run-scoring walk in the top of the fourth inning to put Tampa Bay up, 4-2.

"We'll kick back tonight, then get set for the next one," Margot said.

The triumph puts Tampa Bay at 38-37 for the season.
