Montreal Canadiens have had few reasons to celebrate this season as they have
been mired near the basement of the Eastern Conference.NEW YORK --
Sean Rodriguez hit a tiebreaking homer in the sixth inning and drove in three
runs, helping the streaking Tampa Bay Rays extend their longest winning string
this year to five and handing the New York Yankees their season-worst fifth
straight loss, 6-3 Wednesday. Ben Zobrist doubled twice among his three hits for
the Rays, but ran into two outs. With manager Joe Maddon encouraging his team to
be more aggressive on the bases, Rodriguez was thrown out trying to stretch an
RBI single to the wall in right field in the fourth. The Rays won all three
games at Yankee Stadium for their first road sweep since taking three in the
Bronx Sept. 24-26. The Rays improved to 11 games under .500 for the first time
in a month after falling 18 under on June 10. New York is below .500 at 41-42
for the first time since April 11. Brett Gardner hit a leadoff homer and an RBI
single against Jake Odorizzi (4-7) and added another hit for the Yankees. New
York could muster little other than Brian McCanns long ball on a sweltering day
at Yankee Stadium. Humidity made the temperature feel as if it were in the high
90s. Joel Peralta tied Esteban Yans record for appearances with the Rays at 266
when he pitched a scoreless eighth inning. Brad Boxberger was perfect in the
ninth for his first save. Brandon Guyer had an RBI single in the fifth. The Rays
put runners on base in every inning but the second against Vidal Nuno (2-5) and
three relievers. Tampa Bay scored its first run on McCanns passed ball in the
third. McCann made up for it in the bottom half, homering into the short porch
in right field with two outs. Despite hitting .220 coming in, McCann batted
third beccause Jacoby Ellsbury was given a day off for being "kind of beat up,"
according to manager Joe Girardi.
Raekwon McMillan Dolphins Jersey. After the
Rays tied it on Rodriguezs RBI single to right in the fourth -- he was thrown
out by Alfonso Soriano, a call upheld by review -- Gardner put the Yankees back
on top 3-2 with a bounced single. In this back-and-forth game, the Rays
immediately tied it up in the fifth on Guyers RBI single to left field. But
Zobrist was thrown out by Gardner trying to score from second. Logan Forsythe
led off the sixth with a single to chase Nuno. Rodriguez greeted reliever
Shawn Kelley with a drive just left of Monument Park for the first two-run lead
of the day. Nuno yielded four runs -- three earned -- and eight hits in
five-plus innings. Odorizzi was also pulled in the sixth. He gave up three runs
and eight hits. It was the most runs hes allowed since being charged with four
on June 5. NOTES: Yankees 1B Mark Teixeira had fluid drained from his right
knee. Girardi said Teixeira had been playing with the problem for a short while.
"We believe he will be in the lineup tomorrow," Girardi said. ... The Yankees
commemorated the 75th anniversary of Lou Gehrigs "Luckiest Man" speech from July
4, 1939 -- the team is in Minnesota on July 4. As part of the ceremony, a video
of Derek Jeter and first baseman from all 30 MLB teams reading the speech was
shown on the video board. ... New York signed Venezuelan SS Diego Castillo,
Baseball Americas No. 24 international prospect. ... Up next: The Yankees start
an 11-game road trip in Minnesota on Thursday. The Rays face the Tigers in
Detroit in the final stop of a 10-game trip.
