Tampa Bay catcher Osvaldo Leme contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the sixth. With two down, he hit a fastball to right field for a run-scoring single. It was his 43rd hit of the season and put the Rays ahead, 3-1.

"This level of focus will win us a lot of ballgames," Leme said after the game.
