Fans were not deterred by the threat of rain. They came to see their hometown Tampa Bay Rays take on the Texas Rangers.

The Tampa Bay Rays withstood a fine game by Texas first baseman Brock Guertin at Globe Life Park in Arlington, to upend the Rangers, 7-6. Guertin went 1 for 1 with 4 walks, while scoring 2. The last-place Rays sport a record of 38-70.

The Rays got a big at-bat from second baseman Dirk Richardson. For the game, Richardson was 2-4 with 2 doubles, while adding 3 RBI. In the bottom of the first, with the bases loaded, he stroked a bases-clearing double. His 16th double of the season gave Tampa Bay a 5-2 lead.

Richardson said, "Whether you hit the ball hard, you walk, you have a long at-bat, 10 or 12 pitches, or you hit a homer, you're just trying to do anything you can do to help the team win."
