The Tampa Bay Rays got a marvelous performance from pitcher Chris Stephenson. The left-hander kept the Chicago offense from ever getting much traction. The result was an impressive 3-2 Tampa Bay victory at Tropicana Field. Joe Montgomery earned the save for Tampa Bay, his 29th. Tampa Bay now has a record of 57-53 with the win.

Eric Cox, who is tied for 6th in the AL in triples with 4, helped out the Tampa Bay cause in the bottom of the second inning with a run-scoring ground out. For the game, the designated hitter drove in one run.

"When you are able to locate the ball, good things are going to happen," said Stephenson.
