Jordan Leads Rays to Win
Getting a good performance from center fielder Jon Jordan, the Tampa Bay (GCL) Rays defeated the Baltimore (GCL) Orioles, 10-4. Jordan went 4-4 with a home run, 3 singles, and a walk, while scoring 3 times for the Rays. Jeff Stephens earned the win after being called from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed 2 runs on 7 hits in 4.2 innings. He upped his record to 1-0. Tampa Bay (GCL), with the win, is 6-1.

It could have been a different outcome for Tampa Bay (GCL), had it not been for Andy Dixon, the 23-year old catcher . Dixon contributed a run-scoring walk in the top of the second inning to put Tampa Bay (GCL) up, 2-0.

"I like our mindset right now," said Tampa Bay (GCL) manager Brad Salmon.
