Rays Get Plucky, 7-6 Win Over Rangers
The Tampa Bay Rays defeated the Texas Rangers, 7-6, in 10 innings. Much of the credit belonged to right fielder Dave Martinez, who went 2-4 with a double and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for the Rays. The win went to Dan Wheeler in relief, making him now 3-0. Jeff Russell took the loss for Texas. Tampa Bay is 53-68 and Texas, with the loss, 51-70.

Randy Winn drew 1 walk for Tampa Bay. With one out and the game tied in the top of the tenth inning, Winn had a clutch at-bat. Facing Texas hurler Akinori Otsuka, he hit a sacrifice fly to give the Rays a 7-6 lead.

"If you're not prepared, it's not pressure you feel, it's fear," mused Tampa Bay manager .
