The Tampa Bay (GCL) Rays withstood an impressive performance by Baltimore (GCL) right fielder Derek Leis to defeat the Orioles, 8-6, at Louisville Grounds. Leis went 2 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 3 runs and drove in 2. The save went to Chris Ellis, his 6th this season. With the victory, the Rays record stands at 23-12.

Jorge Morales had a big bases-clearing triple for the Rays in the bottom of the third inning. With Tampa Bay (GCL) leading 4-1 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from 22-year old right-handed pitcher Matt Parks and swatted a triple to right-center. It was his 2nd triple of the season, and more importantly, it put the Rays ahead, 7-1.

"We've got a great group of guys," Morales said, "and we're having fun right now."
