Fine Effort by McCullough Not Enough in 10-8 Mets Loss
The inspired effort of New York center fielder Eric McCullough was not enough to prevent a loss, 10-8, to the Tampa Bay Rays. McCullough was 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 5 runs and scored once. The wins continue to add up for Tampa Bay. The latest makes it 7 in a row.

Tampa Bay used the clutch hitting of Jesus Tejada to capture the win. The catcher drilled a 2-run double in the top of the ninth inning to give the Rays the lead, 10-8. For the game, Tejada had 1 single and 1 double in 5 at-bats.

"Big team win," Tejada said later.
