SATURDAY, AUGUST 22, 2015 at OAKLAND A’sRH Erasmo Ramirez (10-4, 3.57) vs. RH Sonny Gray (12-5, 2.04)

RAY MATTER—The Rays opened this 3-game series last night with a 2-1 win over the A’s, their 4th straight one-run game and 2nd consecutive one-run win…it was the Rays 12th win of the season in which they have scored 2 runs or less, most in the majors…after dropping the first three games, the Rays are now 3-5 on this 10-game, 10-day road trip through the AL West (0-3 at Texas, 2-2 at Houston and 1-0 here)…the Rays bullpen has failed to hold late leads in 3 of the losses: in the 7th inning (Aug 14 at TEX), 8th (Tue at HOU) and 9th (Wed at HOU)…the Rays have lost 2 walkoffs on this trip (both at Houston) and have a major league 10 this season…the Rays brought a 4-game win streak on this trip and are now 7-5 in their last 12 games and 10-7 since Aug 2…the Rays have been between one game under .500 and one game over .500 for 61 days this season and for 36 of the last 44 days…the Rays are at .500 (61-61) for the 18th day, most ever in one season…Rays were also 61-61 last season after 122 games.

AL WILD CARD RACE—There are pres-ently 4 teams within 2.0 games of the AL’s second Wild Card spot and 6 teams within 5.0 games…in the 4 years of the “Second Wild Card” era this is the most crowded race for the second wild card on this date.

CLOSE CALLS—The Rays have won two straight games by 1-0 and 2-1 scores…it is only the 3rd time in club history the Rays have won 2 straight games by scoring a combined total of 3 or fewer runs…it is the 2nd time this season (also June 4-5 vs. SEA, 2-1 and 1-0)…last night was the Rays 10th one-run game in their last 17 games…it was also their 70th game decided by 2 runs or fewer, tied for the major league lead…it was their 14th game out of the last 19 decided by one or two runs…8 of the Rays last 10 losses have been by 1 or 2 runs.

DESMOND BECOMES FIRST RAY—The Rays have won their last 2 games (1-0 at Houston and 2-1 here) and Desmond Jennings has driven in all of three runs in the 2 wins…it’s the first time ever that a Rays player has driven in all of the Rays runs in back-to-back wins…according to the Elias Sports Bureau, the last MLB player to do it was SF Cody Ross on May 8-10, 2011…the Giants beat Colorado 3-0 and Arizona 1-0…Desmond returned from the 60-day disabled list (left knee bursitis) on Aug 14 and has hit safely in 6 of his 7 games since (.357, 10-for-28) with 1 HR and 4 RBI…he had no homers and 2 RBI in 19 games before going on the DL.

500 THE HARD WAY—The Rays are 61-61 while scoring 453 runs…the last AL teams to be .500 or better after 122 games with so few runs scored were all from the 1976 season—when the Orioles, Twins, Yankees and Ti-gers all were over .500 with fewer than 453 runs scored.

THIS WEEK IN RAYS BASEBALL—The Rays are 3-2 in their last 5 games and have allowed only 9 runs in the 5 games…Rays starters have worked to a 1.13 ERA (32.1-IP, 26-H, 4-ER, 5-BB, 32-SO)…in the last 3 games, Rays pitchers have struck out 36 batters and walked 3.

THE RAYS WAY—Rays starting pitchers have not allowed a run in their last 19.2 innings and only one in their last in the last 23.2 IP…last night was the 24th game a Rays starter has not allowed a run, tops in the majors…the Rays had 32 such games last year, most by an AL club since the 1964 Angels (34)…last night, Drew Smyly became the 8th different Rays pitcher with a scoreless start this season, tops in the AL…it was the 53rd time a Rays starter allowed one run or less, 2nd in the majors behind St. Louis (56).

GOMES ONE SHY OF PERFECT GAME—Brandon Gomes has retired the last 26 batters he’s faced since BOS Josh Rutledge singled on July 31 at Fenway…Gomes’ streak matches the 2nd longest in club history…RH Steve Geltz retired 32 in a row earlier this year (June 6-24), and RH Kyle Farnsworth had a streak of 26 in 2011 (July 28–August 23).

SABR HAS KIERMAIER No. 1—SABR (Society for American Baseball Re-search) yesterday released its Defensive Index rankings and Rays CF Kevin Kiermaier has extended his commanding lead in the AL in the SABR Defen-sive Index™ rankings through games of Aug 16…the SABR Defensive Index accounts for approximately 25 pct. of the Rawlings Gold Glove Award selection

process…major league managers and coaches, voting only within their league and unable to vote for players on their own teams, account for 75 pct. of the selection process…Kiermaier’s SDI of 21.8 is the best in the majors among all qualified defenders, followed by Giants SS Brandon Crawford (14.0), Rock-ies 3B Nolan Arenado (11.9), Orioles 3B Manny Machado (10.3), Giants C Buster Posey (10.0) and DET/NYM LF Yoenis Cespedes (9.9).

.500 HOME AND ROAD—The Rays enter play today with a .500 mark at home (31-31) and on the road (30-30)…no other major league team is ex-actly .500 at home or on the road.

RAYS ON THE ROAD—On June 20, the Rays had the best road record in the majors (21-11), but since then they are 9-19 (.321)…the Rays are 1-6-1 in their last 8 road series.

COMING TO LIFE IN AUGUST—The Rays are hitting .289 in 18 games this month (10-8), 2nd best in the majors (Boston .314)…Rays are 4th in the majors in OPS (.782) and are averaging 4.50 runs per game…Rays entered August batting .239 (28th in the majors) and sporting a .684 OPS (24th) while averaging 3.58 runs per game (28th)…the Rays batted just .229 in July…SS Asdrubal Cabrera is 4th in the majors this month with a .400 (28-for-70) batting average…OF Brandon Guyer is batting .371 (13-for-35).

RAYS vs. A’S—The Rays 60-95 (.387) all-time record vs. the A’s is their worst vs. an AL opponent, as is their 23-52 (.307) mark at O.co Coliseum…Rays lead the season series 3 games to 2…Rays have scored only 12 runs in the 5 games, Oakland only 15…Rays need to win one of the remaining two games to clinch their first winning season vs. the A’s since 2010…in their last 7 visits here the Rays have won only one series (1-5-1).

FIRST-YEAR MANAGERS ARE TIGHT—The four teams who began the season with rookie managers are all presently separated by only 2.0 games:

Rangers Jeff Banister 62-59 .512Rays Kevin Cash 61-61 .500Twins Paul Molitor 61-61 .500D-backs Chip Hale 60-61 .496

ERASMO!—The Rays are 13-6 (.684) when tonight’s starter Erasmo Ramirez is on the mound…only six other major league starters (min. 18 starts) have seen their teams win a higher pct. of their starts: STL Carlos Martinez (.818), STL Michael Wacha (.782), DET/TOR David Price (.720), TOR Drew Hutchi-son (.708), LAD Zack Greinke (.708) and NYM Jacob deGrom (.696)…over-all, has the 7th-best winning pct. in the majors (10-4, .714).

TRANSACTION NEWS—Today, RHP Jose Dominguez, who was desig-nated for assignment on Sunday to accommodate Drew Smyly’s transfer from the 60-day disabled list to the 40-man roster, has cleared waivers and been outrighted to Triple-A Durham.

A LITTLE HELP—Tomorrow’s starter Jake Odorizzi has the lowest run sup-port among AL starters with a runs-per-game mark of 3.16…close behind are Chris Archer (7th at 3.65) and Nathan Karns (9th at 3.71)…the Rays are the only team with 3 pitchers in the bottom 10 in run support…Odorizzi has made 13 quality starts (6-plus IP, 3 ER or fewer) and has failed to win 9 of those (4 losses, 5 no decisions), the 3rd highest total in the AL behind CWS Jose Quintana (12) and BAL Wei-Yin Chen (11).

GELTZ CLOSING IN ON 60—RH Steve Geltz made his AL-high 59th ap-pearance last night…only 3 Rays rookies have reached 60 appearances in a season: RH Ruddy Lugo (64 in 2006), RH Esteban Yan (64 in 1998) and RH Lance Carter (62 in 2003)…the last rookie to lead the AL in apps was CWS Kelly Wunsch in 2000 (83). LEFT SIDE IS MAJORS BEST—Rays SS Asdrubal Cabrera has made only 4 errors this season and 3B Evan Longoria has only 7…their 11 com-bined are the fewest by a left side of the infield in the majors this season…in the 2000s, only one SS-3B combination had fewer errors in one season: the 2000 Indians with SS Omar Vizquel (3) and 3B Travis Fryman (8) combined for 11.

WEEKEND WARRIORS—The Rays are a combined 20-17 in weekend games and 41-44 during the week.

TONIGHT’S STARTER—RH ERASMO RAMIREZ (10-4, 3.57)

Ê LAST START—On Mon vs. HOU, was given a 4-0 lead before even throwing a pitch, winning his second straight start…both runs allowed were driven in by Evan Gattis, via a 2nd-inning single and 4th-inning solo homer…threw 102 pitches, his most since June 15 vs. WAS (103)…his line: W, 5.2 IP, 6 H, 2 R/ER, 2 BB, 2 SO, 1 HR, 102 pit, 64 str.

Ê Became the fourth Nicaraguan to win 10 games in a season, join-ing Dennis Martinez, Al Williams and Vicente Padilla.

Ê Became the third Ray to reach 10 wins in the season after he was acquired via trade, joining Mark Hendrickson (10-15, 2004) and Matt Garza (11-9, 2008).

Ê ERASMO LATELY—Since moving into the starting rotation for good on May 14, has made 17 starts and gone 10-3—T-2nd in the AL in wins over that span, with HOU Dallas Keuchel and NYY Nathan Eovaldi, one shy of TEX Colby Lewis (11)…opponents are batting .205/.270/.313 (72-for-352), lowest opp avg. in the AL…has a 2.61 ERA (96.2-IP, 28-ER) over this stretch, 4th in the AL, lowering his season ERA from 8.38 to 3.57.

Ê TYPICALLY STRONG—Has yielded 1 earned run or fewer in 12 of his 19 starts this season…is one of only seven AL pitchers with at least 12 starts of 1 ER or fewer, a list that includes teammate and AL co-leaders Chris Archer (14) and OAK Sonny Gray, tonight’s opposing starter…the six other pitchers have all made at least 23 starts to Erasmo’s 19.

Ê Has yielded 2 hits or fewer in 5 starts this year, one shy of the AL lead held by teammates Chris Archer and Nathan Karns, OAK Sonny Gray and OAK/HOU Scott Kazmir.

Ê MR. EFFICIENCY—Averaging 14.9 pitches per inning, which would rank T-6th in the AL if he qualified…the only qualifiers in club history to ever finish a season that low are RH James Shields (2011, 2008, 2007) and LH David Price (2013).

Ê DOESN’T TAKE MUCH—Has yet to lose when he receives 2 runs or more of run support…in those 13 starts, he is 10-0 with a 1.88 ERA (76.2-IP, 16-ER)…has gotten 1 or fewer runs of support in 6 starts, and is 0-4 with a 6.10 ERA (31-IP, 21-ER) in those starts.

Ê THE TURNAROUND—Since April 19, is 10-3 with a 2.52 ERA in 24 apps (18 starts), ranking among AL leaders in nu-merous categories (see chart)…yielded 16 runs (15 earned) in his first 2 apps (1 start) spanning 5.1 IP this year, a 25.31 ERA, and only 34 runs (31 earned) in 110.2 IP since then.

Ê THE CHANGE—His changeup has ac-counted for 24.4 percent of his pitches, according to FanGraphs, and 41.4 per-cent of his strikeouts (36 of 87) have come with the changeup, per PITCHf/x.

Ê Has thrown 678 changeups since last yielding a home run with the pitch (April 17, 2014 at TEX, Shin-Soo Choo), per PITCHf/x.

Ê MISCELLANY—Has held lefties to a .186 (44-for-237) avg. this season, 3rd in the AL (min. 125 AB)…however, lefties have hit as many homers off him (5) as righties…prior to this season (2012-14), lefties owned a career .265/.340/.408 (121-for-456) line against him.

Ê Has yielded 6 HR in his last 9 starts, after 4 HR in his first 17 apps (10 starts)…his 0.78 HR/9 IP ratio in 2015 is down from 1.55 in 2014.

Ê Opponents are batting .183 (50-for-23) with the bases empty, .285 (45-for-158) with runners on base and .322 (29-for-90) with RISP.

Ê Is holding the middle of opposing lineups (No. 3-6 hitters) to a .157/.241/.274 (31-for-197) clip this season.

Ê NICARAGUA’S OWN—Is one of 14 players in major league history born in Nicaragua—most famously Dennis Martinez…earlier this season in Cleve-land, Erasmo chatted with “El Presidente”, who was there as the Indians celebrated the 20th anniversary of their 1995 pennant-winning team.

#16 KEVIN CASH, MANAGER

Ê LAST START—On Tue vs. HOU, tied a season-high with 9 SO (also April 18 vs. NYY)…only yielded one run, an RBI double by Marwin Gonzalez in the 3rd…received no decision, after the Rays bullpen blew a 2-1 lead…his line: ND, 6 IP, 6 H, 1 R/ER, 1 BB, 9 SO, 107 pit, 71 str.

Ê Was the 10th time since the start of 2014 he allowed one run or fewer and not earned a win, one shy of the AL lead (TB Chris Ar-cher and LAA Hector Santiago) for most such starts over that span.

Ê SINCE HIS RETURN—Is 2-1 with a 3.94 ERA (45.2-IP, 20-ER) in 8 starts since returning from the 15-day DL (left oblique strain)…ranked 5th in the AL with a 2.47 ERA at the time of his injury.

Ê vs. AL WEST—This season is 1-1 with a 0.91 ERA (29.2-IP, 3-ER) in 5 starts against AL West opponents…in his career, is 5-4 with a 1.87 ERA (68.2-IP, 14-ER) in 12 starts…hasn’t allowed a run in 5 of those 12 starts, and has allowed 1 ER or fewer in 9 of the 12 starts.

Ê vs. OAKLAND—Has faced the A’s once, on May 20, 2014 at Tropicana Field…his line: L, 4.2 IP, 4 H, 3 R/ER, 5 BB, 8 SO, 113 pit, 71 str…his 5 BB and 113 pitches remain tied for his career high…40 of his 113 pitches came in the 4th inning, but didn’t allow a run in the frame…his 3 runs al-lowed came in the 2nd, on a Coco Crisp 2-run double and John Jaso RBI single, the only runs of the entire game in the Rays 3-0 loss.

TOMORROW’S STARTER—RH JAKE ODORIZZI (6-6, 3.02)

Ê Has been ejected twice as manager: April 16 at TOR, May 10 vs. TEX. Ê 37-year-old manager is the youngest skipper in the majors since ARI A.J.

Hinch (34) in 2009 and youngest active manager/head coach in the four major sports, ahead of Boston Celtics head coach Brad Stevens (38).

Ê Is the fifth manager in Rays history…is the sixth Tampa-born manager

in ML history and second to manage the Rays…joins Hall of Famers Al Lopez and Tony La Russa, Lou Piniella, Dave Miley and John Hart.

Ê Played 12 professional seasons as a catcher, including parts of eight sea-sons in the majors (2002-10)…spent two years (2005-06) in the Rays org., and appeared in 13 major league games in 2005 for Lou Piniella.

Ê Has retired his last 26 BF, 6 shy of Steve Geltz’s club record (see above)…escaped Drew Smyly’s bases-loaded jam in the 6th yesterday at OAK, stranding 3 IR, and had a perfect 7th…has inherited a team-high 28 baserunners, and hasn’t allowed one to score since June 16 vs. WAS.

Ê His last 8 apps have been scoreless, lowering his ERA from 4.58 to 3.68…had a career-high 4 SO on Wed at HOU, in a season-high-tying 2 IP. Ê On Aug 14 at TEX, became the first in Rays history to finish an app at 0.1 IP without throwing a pitch…did so with a pickoff of Elvis Andrus in the 8th.

#45 ENNY ROMERO, LH Last App: 8/17 at HOU (1.0-IP, 1-H, 0-R, 1-BB, 2-SO) Saves-Opps: -- vs. LH: .462 (6-13)2015: 0-0-0, 7.15 ERA, 6 G Long Relief App: 3.0, 5/23 vs. OAK IR-RS: 3-2 vs. RH: .306 (11-36)

Ê Recalled on Thu as LH Jake McGee was placed on the 15-day DL…marks his fifth tour with the Rays this season (also May 23, June 6-9, June 12-22 and Aug 17-18)…pitched a scoreless 9th on Mon at HOU, his first career road app…averaging 95.8 mph this year on his fastball, per FanGraphs.

Ê Has made 6 apps this year, yielding 17 H and 8 BB in 11.1 IP…opponents are batting .347/.439/.367 (17-for-49)…has only yielded 1 XBH (double). Ê Was 1-1 with a 4.86 ERA (46.1-IP, 25-ER) in 17 apps (3 starts) for Durham…went at least 2 IP in his last 6 relief apps for the Bulls.
