Devil Rays Defeat Blue Jays, 7-4
The Tampa Bay Devil Rays stopped the Toronto Blue Jays, 7-4, at Skydome. The Devil Rays got a big game from Tony Longmire, who went 1-1 with a home run, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Ismael Valdez, now 4-7, picked up the win in relief. He allowed 1 run on 3 hits in 1.2 innings. The Devil Rays sport a record of 49-87.

Longmire had a game-changing home run in the top of the tenth. On a 1-1 fastball from Omar Bencomo, he banged a 3-run home run to right-center, giving the Devil Rays a 7-4 lead. It was the 2nd home run of the year for Longmire.

"That was your kind of game, if you like high drama," said Devil Rays manager Roman Radmanovic.
