TODAY’S STARTER—RH JAKE ODORIZZI (5-6, 2.80)

Ê LAST START—On Fri at TOR, had a career-high-tying 5 BB…walked his first 2 BF for the first time in 51 big league starts, and issued walks to 4 of his first 11 BF…yielded a season-high 6 R/ER, and recorded a season-low 1 SO…lasted 4.1 IP, his shortest (non-injury) start of the season…yielded 2 HR in the 5th inning, his first time allowing a pair of homers within the same inning since Aug 25, 2014 at BAL…a 2-run homer by Josh Donaldson and 3-run homer by Justin Smoak turned a 1-1 game into a 6-1 game…his line: L, 4.1 IP, 6 H, 6 R/ER, 5 BB, 1 SO, 2 HR, 93 pit, 55 str.

Ê ABOUT THAT RECORD—Only one other pitcher (min. 10 starts) in the majors has an ERA as low as Odorizzi’s yet still has a losing record: ATL Shelby Miller (5-6, 2.33)…there are 19 other pitchers (min. 10 starts) in the majors with a 2.80 ERA or better and they have combined to go 163-90 (.644)…the pitcher with the lowest ERA in club history to finish with a losing record was Jeremy Hellickson (10-11, 3.10) in 2012.

Ê Is 16-21 (.432) in his career with a 3.73 ERA…only 2 other active pitchers (min. 50 starts) have an ERA as low and a lower career winning pct., both in the NL: SD Tyson Ross (.373, 3.64) and SD Andrew Cashner (.390, 3.43 ERA).

Ê UNSUPPORTED—Has received the 6th lowest run support in the AL (min. 10 starts) at 2.80 R/9 IP (86.2-IP, 27-RS)…has only received 3 runs or more of support 3 times in 14 starts this season…the Rays have scored 2 runs or fewer for him 11 times and have given him a total of 7 runs in his 6 losses.

Ê INTERLEAGUE—Is 3-3 with a 3.51 ERA (41-IP, 16-ER) in 7 career interleague starts…five of the starts came in 2014, when he went 3-2 with a 2.32 ERA (31-IP, 8-ER) and 35 SO…has only made 1 IL start this season—May 20 at ATL (L, 6-IP, 4-H, 2-ER, 2-BB)…is 0-2 with a 7.20 ERA (15-IP, 12-ER) in 3 career starts vs. NL East opponents.

Ê AT THE PLATE—Is 0-for-6 lifetime with 1 RBI, 1 BB, 4 SO and 1 sac bunt…on July 22, 2014 at STL—in his first plate appearance since the state championship game at Highland High School—executed a perfect safety squeeze, scoring James Loney on a 1st-and-3rd bunt play, off Adam Wainwright…he became (and remains) the second pitcher in Rays history to record an RBI bunt, joining Matt Moore on June 9, 2012 at MIA in a similar 1st-and-3rd situation, scoring Elliot Johnson.

Ê A.L. LEADERS—Min. 75 IP, ranks among AL leaders in ERA (2.80, 8th), WHIP (1.08, 7th), H/9 IP (7.37, 10th), opp avg. (.218, 10th), opp OBP (.273, 6th), opp OPS (.636, 10th) and opp BABIP (.255, 5th).

Ê ROAD IMPROVEMENT—His last start increased his road ERA from 3.09 to 3.94, still over 2 runs better than his 6.32 ERA (68.1-IP, 44-ER) in 14 road starts last season…has yielded 2 runs or fewer in half (4) of his 8 road starts this year…in 2014, had the largest home-road dif-ferential in the majors (min. 100 IP) and his road ERA was 2nd highest in club history among season qualifiers—only Mark Hendrickson (6.53 in 2005) was higher.

Ê COBBYCAT—32.2 pct. of his pitches have been changeups, most in the AL (min. 60 IP), according to FanGraphs…has 34 strikeouts with the changeup, accounting for 49.3 percent of his total strikeouts…borrowed his changeup grip from Alex Cobb in the 2013-14 offseason.

Ê Opponents are batting .203 (27-for-133) with 5 2B, 3 3B, 2 HR and 34 SO in at-bat ending with the changeup, per PITCHf/x.

Ê RIGHT AND LEFT—Has held right-handed batters to a .193 opp avg. (27-for-140), 5th in the AL (min. 100 AB), but 6 of those 27 hits have been home runs…lefties have hit .238 (44-for-185), and the homer by Justin Smoak in his last start was his first allowed to a lefty since Sep 24, 2014 at BOS (Garin Cecchini), with 185 homerless AB vs. LHB in between.

Ê REDEFINING THE QUALITY START—Has made 9 quality starts (6 IP or more, 3 ER or fewer) out of 14 starts…in addition, in 3 of those he’s allowed no more than 3 hits and 1 ER—and since the start of 2014, has made 11 such starts (6 IP or more, 3 H and 1 ER or fewer), tied for most in the AL over that span and one shy of major league leader CHC Jake Arrieta (12).

Ê GOING DEEP—In 14 starts, has pitched into the 7th inning 10 times, more than he did in all of 2014 (8 times in 31 starts)…went at least 6 IP in his first 11 starts this season, tying James Shields (11, 2011) for the 2nd longest streak of 6-plus IP to start the season in club history, trailing Shields (14, 2007)…streak snapped when he left his June 5 start at SEA due to injury.

hitters have missed on 29.8 pct. of their swings, 2nd-highest rate in the AL.

Ê ALL-STAR—Selected as a result of the Player Ballot, his first career se-lection…pitched a scoreless 5th inning before allowing a leadoff homer to Andrew McCutchen in the 6th…his line: 1.1 IP, 1 H, 1 R, 1 BB, 1 SO, 1 HR, 20 pitches, 10 strikes…was the first run a Rays pitcher ever allowed in an All-Star Game, ending a scoreless streak at 11 innings.
