Rays Get Past Cleveland for 3-2 Win
The Tampa Bay Rays, despite a fine performance by Cleveland pitcher Sandy Cline, grabbed a 3-2 win at Tropicana Field. Cline allowed 2 runs over 6 innings. The losing streak for Cleveland has now reached 4 games.

Tampa Bay took a 3-2 lead on Jesús Pacheco's 18th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Pacheco hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Cleveland pitcher Jose Y. Nunez visibly frustrated.

"That's baseball," said Cleveland manager Tristan Bugbie. "Sometimes the other team plays better than yours."
