Cox Slugs Rays to 4-3 Win
|
The Tampa Bay Rays turned back the Kansas City Royals, 4-3, at Kauffman Stadium. Eric Cox, in particular, had a fine performance. He went 2 for 2 with 2 home runs, 2 walks, and was hit by a pitch. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Joe Montgomery earned the save, his 22nd in 24 tries. The win elevated the Rays to 46-39.
Bobby Davenport, who is tied for 5th in the AL in extra base hits with 36, had a direct impact on the outcome. Davenport contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put Tampa Bay up, 4-3.
Cox attributed the win to his team's "dogged determination."
