					| Rays Win, 3-1, Versus Toronto |  
					| The Toronto Blue Jays got a sterling performance from pitcher Eric Neeley, but the Tampa Bay Rays still prevailed, 3-1. Neeley threw 6.2 innings of shutout ball. Earning his 22nd save of the year was  Steve Harris. Tampa Bay is first in the American League East Division with a record of 44-26. 
 Tampa Bay went up, 3-1, on Edgar Estrada's 2nd home run of the season. The 3-run  home run, which Estrada hit in the bottom of the eighth, made Toronto pitcher Mitch Bliss grimace.
 
 "Every loss stings," said Toronto manager Toronto GM. "This one is no exception."
