Simon Despres Ducks Jersey . PETERSBURG, Fla.
-- Tampa Bay manager Joe Maddon feels his team reached an important
regular-season milestone. Yunel Escobar and Ben Zobrist homered during a
three-run seventh inning and the surging Rays improved to a season-high 10 games
over .500 by beating the Minnesota Twins 7-4 on Monday night. "The thing I like
is that were 10 games over," Maddon said. "Youve got to go to 10, then youve got
to go to 15, etc., etc. The major takeaway from tonight is the fact that were 10
games over. Were playing, probably, our best baseball right now." Escobar had a
leadoff tiebreaking homer in the seventh off Samuel Deduno (4-4), who departed
after Desmond Jennings followed with a triple. Caleb Thielbar entered and got
one out before Zobrist gave Tampa Bay a 6-3 lead with a two-run shot. "Were
always ready to jump on an opportunity," Tampa Bay right fielder Wil Myers said.
"That just shows what kind of team we are, and capable of those kind of things.
I think thats big going down the stretch." Alex Torres (3-0) pitched a perfect
seventh for the Rays, who have won nine of 10. Escobar also had a sacrifice fly
in the eighth. "Weve been playing well," Maddon said. "Pitching well, catching
the ball on defence and not expanding our strike zone. I just like the fact that
were showing kind of a comeback mentality right now." Fernando Rodney got the
final two outs to pick up his 20th save after an RBI single by Pedro Florimon
off Jamey Wright. Justin Morneau homered for the Twins, who have lost eight of
nine. Deduno gave up five runs and 10 hits over six-plus innings. Thielbar had
not allowed a run in his first 17 appearances during his rookie season before
Zobrists homer. After Brian Dozier hit a third-inning RBI double, the Twins took
a 3-2 lead in the fourth when Morneau had a solo homer and Chris Parmelee added
a sacrifice fly off Roberto Hernandez. Minnesota went 4 for 4 with the sac fly
during the fourth, but had Oswaldo Arcia thrown out trying to advance to second
after hitting a single and Aaron Hicks picked off at first by Rays catcher Jose
Molina. "Guys were trying, but to the pickoff at first base with Hicksy, and
Arcia trying to go to second base, silly stuff like that will end up shooting
you in the end, and it did," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. Morneau tied Bob
Allison for fourth place on the Twins career list with 211 homers. Minnesota
loaded the bases with two outs in the fifth, but failed to score when Trevor
Plouffe flew out. The Twins went 1 for 10 with runners in scoring position
through six innings. Roberto Hernandez allowed three runs and eight hits in six
innings. The right-hander struck out three, walked three and hit a batter. Tampa
Bay tied it at 3 in the fifth on Evan Longorias run-scoring single. Luke Scott
put the Rays up 1-0 on a first-inning homer. Molina made it 2-0 with an RBI
single in the second. Deduno got hit in the leg by James Loneys hard-hit infield
single during the second, but stayed in the game. One day after having his
career-best 16-game hitting streak ended, Loney had two hits. NOTES: Maddon
remains hopeful that 12-game winner Matt Moore will be added as a replacement
player to the AL All-Star team. ... Hicks had a career-high four hits. ... Rays
RHP Alex Cobb, struck in the right ear by a liner on June 15, threw off a mound
for the second time and didnt rule out pitching in games in late July or early
August. ... Twins RHP PJ Walters accepted an outright assignment to Triple-A
Rochester. RHP Cole De Vries (sprained right elbow) has been placed on the DL by
Rochester. ... Minnesota RHP Rich Harden (shoulder) could throwing batting
practice this week. ... Twins RHP Nick Blackburn (wrist) gave up two runs and
six hits over five innings in his third outing with the Gulf Coast League Twins.

. As the crowd erupted, Davis knocked the ball off the glass and back into his
hands. With 1:14 to go in overtime, Davis sixth block also became his 17th
rebound. That, along with his 32 points -- which tied a career high -- proved
too much for Denver to overcome, and the Pelicans held on for their third
straight victory, 111-107 on Sunday night.With Zlatan Ibrahimovic
suspended for Manchester Uniteds clash with Arsenal, Jose Mourinho faces a
selection dilemma up front. The stats suggest its time to unleash Marcus
Rashford through the middle. Arsenals visit to Old Trafford on Saturday stirs
special memories for Marcus Rashford. The teenager scored twice in three minutes
when he made his Premier League debut in the same fixture last season, helping
Manchester United to a memorable 3-2 win and catapulting his name into the
headlines.Three days earlier he had netted two goals on his senior bow against
Midtjylland, but doing it against a Premier League title contender was a
different story. Rashford became a superstar-in-waiting, and the previously
unknown youngster finished the season as Louis van Gaals first-choice striker
with eight goals in 18 appearances. Nine months on from those thrilling
beginnings, Rashford finds himself in a rather different situation. Jose
Mourinho made a point of defending his youth policy at his Manchester United
unveiling in July, but the critics appeared to be vindicated as Zlatan
Ibrahimovic took centre stage and Uniteds rising star started the season on the
bench. Marcus Rashford scored twice against Arsenal last season Rashford had to
be patient, but he has made a habit of taking his chances. He came off the bench
to score a stoppage-time winner against Hull in his first competitive appearance
under Mourinho in August, and he won his new managers trust with an industrious
second-half cameo in the Manchester derby.Rashford was rewarded with a chance to
lead the line for Uniteds Europa League trip to Feyenoord a few days later, but
he struggled to make an impact in a 1-0 defeat at De Kuip. Ibrahimovic was
restored up front, and Rashford has been confined to the flanks ever since.Its
an unfamiliar role for the academy product. Rashford revealed he had not played
as a winger since the age of 12 or 13 in an interview with Sky Sports in
September, and he was clear about his priorities, too. On a personal level,
scoring lots of goals is the main objective, he said. Marcus Rashford struck a
dramatic winner against Hull in August Four goals in his first six appearances
of the campaign augured well, but Rashford has struggled to hit the heights of
last season since then. He has not scored in his last seven appearances for
United. The barren run stretches to 10 games for club and country. Its the
longest of his fledgling career.Rashford hopes the experience of playing out
wide will make him a more complete player and Mourinho has been impressed by his
defensive work-rate, but his new responsibilities are clearly coming at a cost.
A statistical comparison between this season and last reveals his attacking
output has dropped in all departments. Marcus Rashford 2015/16 vs 2016/17 Stat

is a penalty box predator who scored with his first shots on his Europa League,
Premier League and international debuts. But since moving to the flanks he is
shooting less and spending less time in the areas where he is most effective. In
Uniteds goalless draw at Anfield last month, he didnt touch the ball once in
Liverpools box. Six months half price Upgrade to Sky Sports to watch Man Utd v
Arsenal on Saturday and get the first six months half price Its not just his
goal threat which has been diminished. Rashford is creating fewer chances than
last season, his dribbles have fallen from 4.7 per game to 3.3, and his crossing
stats are those of a striker shoehorned into an unnatural position. Of 25
attempted deliveries, only two have found a team-mate. It gives him a success
rate of just eight per cent. Marcus Rashfords heatmap in Manchester Uniteds 0-0
draw with Liverpool Despite the obvious drawbacks of moving Rashford from his
favoured position, Mourinhos faith in Ibrahimovic has been unwavering. The Swede
went six Premier League games without scoring before his double against Swansea
prior to the international break, but he is still the only outfield player to
have started every minute of Uniteds campaign.Rashford, of course, is not the
only player in the frame to deputise against Arsenal. Wayne Rooney has lost his
place in the United team this season, but he could get the nod to start up front
on Saturday having recovered from the apparent knee injury which forced him out
of England duty. Importance of Carrick The details behind why Michael Carricks
return can be the catalyst for Manchester United. Mourinho might be tempted to
err on the side of experience when he comes to pick his team, but he would be
better off casting his mind back to the last time Arsenal visited Old Trafford.
Rashford was the hero that day. Moving him back into his natural position could
be Uniteds best hope of claiming another three points against the Gunners. Get a
