McClanahan's 3rd scoreless outing in row leads Rays over Blue Jays 3-0 for 12th
win in 13 games
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) --- Shane McClanahan extended his scoreless streak to 16 2/3
innings, and the Tampa Bay Rays beat the Toronto Blue Jays 3-0 Wednesday to
finish a three-game sweep for their 12th win in 13 games.
Tampa Bay has allowed 17 runs over the 13 games. The Rays have three shutouts
in that span and have given up one run five times.
McClanahan (4-2) yielded two hits over 5 2/3 innings in his third straight
scoreless outing, struck out four and walked one. Kevin Kelly, Garrett
Cleavinger, Bryan Baker and Ian Seymour finished the four-hitter, with Seymour
getting three straight outs for his first professional save.
Tampa Bay has won 10 straight home games and is 14-4 at home in its first
season back at Tropicana Field following a season across the bay at
Steinbrenner Field while repairs were made at the Trop following damage caused
by Hurricane Milton.
Defending AL champion Toronto had lost four straight and five of seven,
dropping to 16-21.
Patrick Corbin (1-1) gave up two runs and five hits in 5 1/3 innings.
Tampa Bay took a 2-0 lead in the fourth when Johnny DeLuca hit an RBI double
and scored on Chandler Simpson's two-out RBI single.
Cedric Mullins scored from third on an eighth-inning error by second baseman
Ernie Clement on his throw wide of first trying to complete an inning-inning
double play on DeLuca's grounder.
