Rays Rally For Late Win Over Indians
The Tampa Bay Rays picked up a win at Tropicana Field, knocking off the Cleveland Indians, 3-0. Starting pitcher Kid Nichols played a key role in the triumph. Gregg Olson closed it out for Tampa Bay, earning his 32nd save. Tampa Bay has now won 5 straight, while the Indians have lost 4 in a row.

Tampa Bay took a 2-0 lead on Dan Driessen's 21st home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Driessen hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Cleveland pitcher J R Richard visibly frustrated.

"This level of focus will win us a lot of ballgames," Nichols said after the game.
