5 Straight Wins for Rays
The Tampa Bay Rays had to overcome a fine effort from Boston pitcher Robert Suarez to grab a narrow 4-3 win at Fenway Park. Suarez went 6 innings and allowed 1 run. Tampa Bay reliever Tony Colon picked up the win, upping his record to 4-4. Dave Coleman shouldered the loss. The second-place Rays have won 5 consecutive games.

Tampa Bay used the timely hitting of Jim Searfoss to capture the win. The second baseman socked a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Rays ahead, 4-3. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"I just tried to make good contact," said Searfoss.
