#Rays get a run as DeLuca doubles, Walls moves him to 3B and, after Siri strikeout, Diaz knocked him in. Diaz got to 3B but RF Wallner tumbled over low wall after fielding Diaz ball, and umps called it a ground rule double. Cash argued, but to no apparent avail.

#Rays Cash said they'd try to find a soft landing for just called up LHP Mason Montgomery to make his debut. Instead it's in the 8th inning of a 4-3 game

Taj Bradley pitched better, #Rays had a few key chances late and an unusual call ended up going against them. But bottom line was a loss to #MnTwins as playoff hopes dwindle further. And now a 10-day trip facing contending #Orioles, #Phillies, #Guardians tampabay.com/sports/rays/20…

#Rays take a look at LH Mason Montgomery, who has dazzled since move to bullpen, and drop C Alex Jackson, who had a historically bad batting average. Plus notes tampabay.com/sports/rays/20…

#Rays still seeking their first hit against #Orioles Kremer, although they’ve had four on base via walks and a hit by pitch.
