Almost There: Tampa Bay On Cusp of R3 Triumph After 5-0 Win
When the games really matter, the Tampa Bay Rays put on their best show, beating the Houston Astros by a final score of 5-0 today. Albert Nino went 2-4 with a home run, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Tampa Bay now leads Houston 3-1 in the best-of-7 affair.

Chris Benitez dealt the Astros a blow in the bottom of the third. Batting with a runner on 1st and Tampa Bay leading 1-0, Benitez, who finished 3rd in the AL in doubles with 51 last year, hit a full count fastball for a run-scoring double.

Benitez attributed the win to "energy and focus on the part of everyone."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Jon Nunez Sr. Stadium in Tampa.
