ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) --- Yandy Diaz and Junior Caminero homered to back
six strong innings from Shane McClanahan and the Tampa Bay Rays beat the San
Francisco Giants 3-0 on Friday night.
Diaz led off the second against Robbie Ray (2-4) with his fifth home run for a
1-0 lead.
Caminero led off the fourth with his ninth homer --- a 432-foot shot to left
field --- to make it 2-0.
Taylor Walls doubled leading off the sixth and stole third before scoring on
Chandler Simpson's sacrifice fly to cap the scoring.
McClanahan (3-2) didn't run into trouble until the fifth when Rafael Devers and
Jung Hoo Lee had singles to put runners on the corners with one out. The
29-year-old left-hander induced a double-play grounder from Jerar Encarnacion
to end the threat. He allowed five hits and struck out five.
Ian Seymour and Cole Sulser each pitched a scoreless inning and Bryan Baker
retired the side in order in the ninth for his seventh save in nine
opportunities.
Ray surrendered three runs on four hits in 6 1/3 innings. The 34-year-old lefty
gave up a bunt single to Simpson on his first pitch before picking him off on a
steal attempt three pitches later. JT Brubaker got the final five outs and
allowed a hit.
The Giants, whose 19 home runs are the fewest in the majors, have failed to
homer during their current four-game losing streak.
