Devil Rays Earn Win with Late Rally
The Tampa Bay Devil Rays sent the home crowd home ecstatic.

The Tampa Bay Devil Rays took Jon Lieber's best shot and still were able to collect a win at Devil Rays Park. The final score had Tampa Bay getting past the Orioles, 4-3, in 10 innings. Lieber over 6.2 innings allowed 2 runs on 4 hits, while striking out 4. The last-place Devil Rays have won 4 in a row.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the tenth inning, when Tampa Bay left fielder Torii Hunter, facing John Smoltz, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Devil Rays the 4-3 win.

"I'll probably toss and turn tonight," Baltimore manager Kirk Quasebarth said, following the tough loss.
