Luke Raley hit a tiebreaking homer in the seventh inning, and Tampa Bay's remarkable bullpen retired everyone it faced in the Rays' 4-3 victory over the Baltimore Orioles on Thursday night in the opener of a huge series at Camden Yards.
The Rays pulled within a game of first-place Baltimore in the AL East, and their relievers extended their streak to 34 innings without an earned run.
Randy Arozarena hit a two-run triple in the third for the Rays, and Tampa Bay starter Aaron Civale got Adley Rutschman to hit into a crucial double play in the fifth after the Orioles had come back to tie it at 3. Cedric Mullins made a terrific diving catch in the gap in right-center on a ball that might have scored a run in the top of the second. Then O'Hearn led off the bottom of the inning with a homer that put the Orioles up 1-0.
Henderson hit a leadoff homer in the fourth, and then the Orioles tied it in the fifth without hitting the ball out of the infield.
