Rays outlast Orioles 7-6 after blowing 4-run lead

Harold Ramirez and Francisco Mejía helped the Tampa Bay Rays snap out of their offensive funk.

It was just enough to end their four-game losing streak.

Ramirez hit a tiebreaking sacrifice fly in the top of the ninth inning, and the Rays beat the Baltimore Orioles 7-6 on Saturday. Tampa Bay had scored only four runs in its previous four games, but the Rays broke through with 14 hits in this one.

“Baseball works in very mysterious ways, and it just seems like everything that could go wrong this last week has for us,” Tampa Bay outfielder Kevin Kiermaier said.
