Devil Rays Stumble, Lose to Guardians
Cleveland Guardians starter Chris R. Young found his groove in his team's 8-4 win over the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. The Cleveland win streak is now 3 games.

Terrence Long had a big 2-run home run for the Guardians in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Cleveland leading 2-0 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a fastball from 28-year old right-handed pitcher Kevin McGerry and punished it. The result was his 8th home run of the season, which put the Guardians on top, 4-0.

"Chris R. is a gamer," said Cleveland manager Matt B.
