Overview
- The Rays beat the Diamondbacks 4-2 on Saturday to move back into first place in the American League East by winning percentage.
- Junior Caminero homered for the third straight game and Jonathan Aranda hit a two-run shot that broke a tie and provided the decisive runs.
- Tampa Bay used a bullpen day with five relievers combining to hold Arizona to seven hits, Michael Grove earned the victory and Bryan Baker recorded the save.
- Rookie Jose Cabrera, who made a strong major-league debut earlier, allowed four runs on seven hits in his second start and took the loss for Arizona.
- Arizona is coping with multiple pitching setbacks to returning starters and relievers, a development that increases reliance on inexperienced arms and leaves Merrill Kelly scheduled to start the series finale against Drew Rasmussen.
