Yandy D\u00edaz had four hits and four RBIs, Junior Caminero homered and drove in four runs, and the Tampa Bay Rays battered Baltimore Orioles pitching in a 16-6 victory Monday night.<\/p>\n
Ryan Vilade and Jonny DeLuca each added three RBIs for the Rays, who had 18 hits and scored their most runs since May 31 last year in a 16-3 win at Houston. Tampa Bay is 13-3 this month and owns the best record in the majors at 31-15.<\/p>\n
D\u00edaz got the offense started with a leadoff double and then delivered a two-out, two-run single in the second. The first five hitters in Tampa Bay’s lineup combined to go 13 for 24 with 15 RBIs.<\/p>\n
With a thunderstorm pelting Tropicana Field’s new roof, the Rays scored six early runs against Baltimore starter Trevor Rogers (2-5), sending 10 batters to the plate during a five-run second. Tampa Bay also batted around in a four-run sixth, highlighted by Caminero’s three-run homer.<\/p>\n
Rays starter Shane McClanahan, a Baltimore native, stretched his scoreless streak to 23 2\/3 innings before Adley Rutschman’s two-out RBI single in the third. McClanahan (5-2) then fanned Tampa native Pete Alonso for the left-hander’s 500th major league strikeout.<\/p>\n
McClanahan, who didn’t pitch in 2024 or 2025 after Tommy John surgery, hadn’t allowed a run since April 19 at Pittsburgh.<\/p>\n
Taylor Walls extended his hitting streak to career-best seven games and scored three runs for the Rays.<\/p>\n
Alonso, who had three hits, drove in two runs with a fifth-inning double off the center-field wall.<\/p>\n
Baltimore third baseman Weston Wilson, who homered in the fifth, made his third appearance as a reliever this season. He pitched a scoreless eighth.<\/p>\n
Rutschman also homered for the Orioles.<\/p>\n
