RAY MATTER—Last night the Rays snapped an 11-game losing streak with a 13-7 win over the Red Sox in the series opener…according to the Elias Sports Bureau, they became the first team to snap a losing streak of that length with that many runs since July 15, 1963, when the Mets snapped a 15-game skid with a 14-5 win over the Houston Colt .45s…the 13 runs tied the Rays season high (May 16 at TOR) and were their most at home since April 19, 2014 vs. NYY (16)…their 18 hits were their most since May 17, 2015 at MIN (19) and most at home since April 30, 2009 vs. BOS (18).

Ê The 11-game losing streak was the Rays longest since 2009 (11) and tied for the 3rd longest in club history…they were outscored 72-29 during the skid and batted .222 (81-for-365). Ê Yesterday began an 11-games-in-11-days homestand, their longest homestand since 2010 (11)…the Rays are one of four teams to not have a winning homestand this year (also Braves, D-backs, Twins).

MORE ON THE OUTBURST—Five Rays players last night recorded 3 hits…LF Taylor Motter went 3-for-4, while 2B Logan Forsythe, 3B Evan Longoria, RF Oswaldo Arcia and DH Nick Franklin each went 3-for-5… it was the fourth time in franchise history that five Rays had at least 3 hits… also June 24, 2004 at TOR (six), May 2, 2014 at NYY (five) and July 29, 2002 vs. BAL (five). Ê The Rays scored 5 runs in the 1st inning, tying their season high in the opening frame (April 24 at NYY)…their 6 hits tied their most in any inning this season (April 24 at NYY, 1st inn)…they also tallied 4 runs in the 3rd inning, the first time this season they enjoyed two 4-run innings in the same game. Ê The 9 runs scored off Red Sox LH Eduardo Rodriguez were their most off an opposing pitcher since Aug 13, 2014 at TEX (Miles Miko- las, 10 runs) and most at Tropicana Field since April 29, 2010 vs. KC (Luke Hochevar, 9 runs). MUSCLE MEN—The Rays rank 4th in the majors with 107 HR…through 75 G, this is 40 more than they had a year ago at this time (67, a 60 pct. increase) and 9 more than they’ve ever hit at this point (98 in 2009)…last night was their 13th game with at least 3 HR this year, compared to 14 games in all of 2015. Ê The Rays haven’t hit a walk-off home run in more than two years, since May 22, 2014 vs. OAK (Sean Rodriguez)—the longest active drought in the majors (Arizona next, May 26, 2014). DUBIOUS STREAK IS STILL INTACT—The Rays have allowed 5 or more runs in 12 consecutive games, the longest such streak of any major league team since the Astros (12 straight), June 18-30, 2007…the last team with a longer streak was Kansas City (13) from July 27–Aug 10, 2005…this is the the 2nd-longest such streak in franchise history…in May–June 1999, the Devil Rays allowed 5 or more runs in 14 straight games.

SEEKING A TURNAROUND—Tonight’s starter, RH Chris Archer, has lost his last 7 decisions against Boston, the longest losing streak in club history vs. Boston…the prev. record was 5, done three times (last by RH Seth McClung spanning 2005-06)…it’s the longest losing streak by any pitcher vs. Boston since BAL Jeremy Guthrie lost 8 straight between 2008-11… Archer won his first career start against Boston on Sep 19, 2012, but is winless since then. SOMETHING’S GOTTA GIVE—RH Chris Archer has a 10.69 ERA (16- IP, 19-ER) in the 1st inning and a 3.43 ERA (76-IP, 29-ER) after that…his 1st-inning ERA is the highest in the AL (min. 10 starts)…has averaged 24.1 pitches in the 1st…last year, only yielded 13 ER in 34 starts in the 1st (3.44 ERA)…at home, has a 5.14 ERA (7-IP, 4-ER) in the frame compared to a 15.00 ERA over his 9 road starts. Ê Meanwhile, the Red Sox haven’t scored in the 1st inning since June 11 and have been outscored 22-0 in the frame since then. BLAKE SNELL—Last night became the first AL starter to snap a win- ning streak of 11 games or longer since another Rays lefty, David Price, snapped an 11-game skid on Sep 14, 2009 at BAL with an 8-4 victory…at 23 years, 206 days, he became the youngest Rays pitcher to beat the Red Sox since LH Scott Kazmir’s 2-hit CG SHO on July 3, 2006, at 22 years, 160 days…Snell also recorded the first win by a Rays starter since LH Matt Moore on June 12 vs. HOU, ending a stretch of 13 winless starts. UNDER-30 STREAK ROLLS ON—Tonight is the 312th consecutive game the Rays have started a pitcher under the age of 30, the longest current streak in the majors…the Rays passed the D-backs for the longest active streak when 31-year-old Zack Greinke took the mound on Opening Day, ending Arizona’s streak of 237 games started by under-30 pitchers. CASH IS MAJORS’ YOUNGEST—Red Sox DH David Ortiz (40) and RH Koji Uehara (41) are two of the 16 active players who are older than Rays Manager Kevin Cash (38), the majors’ youngest manager since A.J. Hinch piloted Arizona in 2009 at the age of 34. ALL-STAR CALIBER—All 18 of Evan Longoria’s home runs have come as a third baseman, 2nd among AL third sackers behind CWS Todd Frazier (21) and 3rd in the majors (COL Nolan Arenado, 21)…Longo’s .978 field- ing pct. is 2nd among AL third basemen behind TEX Adrian Beltre (.990). Ê Longo has 9 HR this month, tied with Jose Canseco (1999) for the most in franchise history for June…they’re his most in a calendar month since August 2011 when he hit 10—his personal best for any month. THIS DATE IN RAYS HISTORYJune 28, 2011…Five years ago today, the Rays ride a 12-strikeout performance by LH David Price and a walk-off homer by 3B Evan Longoria to a 4-3 victory over the Reds, their first ever win vs. Cincinnati…they are the last club in baseball to collect at least one win against every other team.

MUSCLE MEN—The Rays rank 4th in the majors with 107 HR…through 75 G, this is 40 more than they had a year ago at this time (67, a 60 pct. increase) and 9 more than they’ve ever hit at this point (98 in 2009)…last night was their 13th game with at least 3 HR this year, compared to 14 games in all of 2015.

Ê The Rays haven’t hit a walk-off home run in more than two years, since May 22, 2014 vs. OAK (Sean Rodriguez)—the longest active drought in the majors (Arizona next, May 26, 2014).

DUBIOUS STREAK IS STILL INTACT—The Rays have allowed 5 or more runs in 12 consecutive games, the longest such streak of any major league

team since the Astros (12 straight), June 18-30, 2007…the last team with a longer streak was Kansas City (13) from July 27–Aug 10, 2005…this is the the 2nd-longest such streak in franchise history…in May–June 1999, the Devil Rays allowed 5 or more runs in 14 straight games.
