The performance of Dave Lacy proved critical in helping Tampa Bay beat Houston, 7-4. The Rays designated hitter went 2 for 5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 and driving in 3. Jose Quintana earned the win for Tampa Bay. He lasted 5.1 innings, allowing 3 runs on 5 hits, while striking out 6. With the win, he raised his record to 6-1. Héctor Saldaña closed it out for his 4th save.

Tampa Bay grabbed the momentum in the top of the fifth, when Lacy hit a 3-run home run off Kevin Rogers. His 2nd home run of the season put the Rays out in front, 5-2.

"I was just going up there trying to see good pitches, that was about it," said Lacy.

The defeat makes Houston 23-35.
