Rays Winners, 3-1, Over Blue Jays
The Tampa Bay Rays and Toronto Blue Jays played a tight game with the hosts claiming a hard-fought win.

Tampa Bay starter Eddie Melendez pitched well against the Toronto Blue Jays at Jon Nunez Sr. Stadium. The right-hander led his team to a win, 3-1. Tim Berigan recorded the save, his 16th.

In the top of the ninth, Miguel Polanco stood in the box, looking for a pitch to hammer. The Blue Jays were trailing 3-1, but had runners on 1st and 3rd. That's when Tim Berigan made a terrific pitch and Polanco lined out. Gone was the dream of a Toronto comeback.

Tampa Bay, at 35-33, holds down second place in the American League East Division.
