Tampa Bay Downed, 5-4, by Angels
The Tampa Bay Rays got a sterling performance from second baseman Ben Zobrist, but the Los Angeles Angels still prevailed, 5-4. Zobrist was 3-4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 and driving in 3. Today's win puts Los Angeles at 45-64, while Tampa Bay falls to 48-61.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Mike Napoli? The 27-year old catcher Napoli stroked a run-scoring strikeout in the top of the eighth inning to put Los Angeles up, 5-4. For the game, he was 2 for 4, including 1 double and 1 single.

In postgame comments to the Los Angeles News, Napoli said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
