New York Drops Tampa Bay, 6-4
Tampa Bay center fielder Eric Cox was sensational. He was 4 for 5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once, but it wasn't enough to rally his team to a win. New York beat the Rays, 6-4. The winning pitcher was Chase De Jong. He tossed 101 pitches over 6 innings, allowing 2 runs on 9 hits. New York bumps their record to 47-64 with the win.

Israel Ávila, the 27-year old third baseman , had a direct impact on the outcome. Ávila contributed a 2-run single in the top of the fourth inning to put New York up, 4-2.

"We'll enjoy this win for now, but it's just one," Ávila told local reporters. "We've got to keep it going."
