RAY MATTER—Yesterday the Rays beat the Astros, 5-3, to win 3 of 4 games from the AL’s best team and claim the season series, 4-3…they became only the second team to beat Houston in 3 straight games this year, joining Cleve-land (5 straight)…they began the road trip losing the first 3 games in New York, but won 4 of the last 5 games to finish 4-4 (1-3 at NYY, 3-1 at HOU)…the Rays overcame a 3-1 deficit in last night’s win, and trailed 3-2 after 6 innings…it was their 28th comeback win of the season, and 7th win when trailing after 6 innings…yesterday the Rays gained a game on the Yankees in the AL East and for the top Wild Card spot (1.5 GB), and they have now gained 3 games on NYY over the past 3 days…they remained 0.5 GB of Kansas City for the second Wild Card berth and 3.5 GB of first-place Boston in the AL East…prior to winning the last 3 games, they had lost 9 of 12.

Ê This is the Rays best record through 110 games since 2013 (65-45)…it is a 12-win improvement over 2016, when they were 20 games under .500 (45-65) and 18.0 GB in the AL East.

Ê The Rays are 15-5-4 over their last 24 series, since May 12-14 at BOS. Ê The Rays have outscored opponents 333-254 (+79) in innings 1-thru-

5, but have been outscored 243-171 after that (-72).

GUT CHECK—Between the just-completed road trip and this homestand, the Rays are playing a stretch of 17 games against five opponents in playoff contention: the Brewers and the AL’s four best teams by winning pct. (Yan-kees, Astros, Red Sox, Indians)…they are 4-4 thus far…the Rays are 6-8 so far in their stretch of 17 games in 17 days (July 21–Aug 6) and 30 games in 31 days (through Aug 20).

Ê The Rays still have games remaining against every team they trail in the AL East and Wild Card race: BOS (8 games), NYY (6) and KC (3).

RAYS vs. BREWERS & INTERLEAGUE—The Rays are 6-3 all-time against Milwaukee (4-2 home, 2-1 road), winning 2 of 3 games in all three previous meetings…this marks the Brew Crew’s third visit to Tropicana Field, and first since July 28-30, 2014…in the series finale, LH David Price made his last start in a Rays uniform and suffered a 5-0 loss to RH Yovani Gallardo, then was traded to Detroit in a three-team deal the next day…the Rays only visit to Milwaukee came June 20-22, 2011.

Ê The Rays are 7-5 in interleague play this season (3-2 home, 4-3 road)…the Rays have won 11 of their last 16 interleague games…Rays are 180-180 all-time in interleague play and 106-76 (.582) in the Rays era (since 2008), 4th best in the majors behind the Red Sox, Rangers and Yankees…the AL is 111-105 (.514) in interleague play in 2017, and has won the last 13 “season series” (2004-16).

Ê The Rays are 34-28 outside the AL East, 23-25 inside the division.

WELCOME WAGON—Tonight the Rays face Brewers RH Brandon Wood-ruff, who makes his major league debut…this will be the 31st time the Rays have faced a starting pitcher making his major league debut, first since April 12 at NYY (LH Jordan Montgomery), and only the 12th they have done so at Tropicana Field, first since June 21, 2014 vs. HOU (RH Jake

Buchanan)…others to debut in a start vs. the Rays include SEA James Paxton, DET Drew Smyly, BAL Zach Britton, TOR Roy Halladay and NYY Orlando Hernández.

EVAN CHANNELING EDDIE—Now in his 10th season, Evan Longoria has 606 career extra-base hits and 330 doubles…in major league history, only two third basemen (min. half of games at 3B) have recorded as many XBH or doubles in their first 10 seasons (see chart)…he also ranks 6th on this list with 258 HR (Dick Allen ranks 5th with 271), and ranks 8th with 871 RBI (David Wright ranks 7th with 876).

SOUZA CHANNELING BIG BOPPER—RF Steven Souza Jr. returned to the lineup yesterday after missing 2 games with a left foot contusion, and hit a solo homer in the 6th inning and a go-ahead, 2-run double in the 7th…all 23 HR have come vs. RHP, which according to the Elias Sports Bureau makes him the first right-handed batter to hit his first 23 HR of a season off RHP since HOU Lee May (1972), who just passed away on Saturday…May’s first 24 HR that season came against RHP…no RH hitter since data is available (1913) has finished a season with at least 23 HR, all coming off a RHP; NYM Jeff Kent holds the record with 21 in 1993.

Ê Souza has established career highs with 23 HR, 68 RBI, 18 2B, 56 BB and 61 runs scored…he has 20 multi-RBI games this year, compared to 18 in 251 games entering the season…in 27 games since June 30, he is batting .305/.400/.653 (27-for-91) with 21 runs scored, 6 2B, 9 HR, 19 RBI, 13 BB and 5 SB…during this span ranks T-4th in the AL in home runs, and 2nd in the AL in SLG behind HOU José Altuve (.702).

POWER PLAY—The Rays and Brewers are tied for 4th in the majors with 159 HR, trailing Houston (175), Texas (167) and Washington (160)…the Rays are on pace for a club-record 234 HR (216 in 2016)…their 159 HR are a club record through 110 games (prev. 144 in 2016) and their 505 runs are their most since 2010 (555)…the Rays lead the majors with a club-record 12 back-to-back home runs, ahead of the Royals and Nationals (9)…there are 48 players in baseball who have hit at least 20 HR this season, and the Rays are the only team with four of them on their roster (Logan Morrison, Steven Souza Jr., Corey Dickerson, Lucas Duda).

COREY DICKERSON—Went 3-for-5 yesterday, his 40th multi-hit game, 2nd in the AL to HOU José Altuve (43)…only two Rays players have reached 40 multi-hit games faster than Dickerson (Game 110): Carl Craw-ford (102 in 2009, 110 in 2006, 109 in 2005, 108 in 2004) and Fred McGriff (109 in 1999)…Dickerson ranks among AL leaders in hits (128, 4th), extra-base hits (51, 5th), total bases (224, T-4th) and runs scored (68, T-7th).

LUCAS DUDA—Has a 7-game on-base streak since joining the Rays, the longest streak to begin a Rays career since 2008, when Willy Aybar (8) and Cliff Floyd (7) both did it…Duda is batting .300/.464/.800 (6-for-20) for the Rays with 1 2B, 3 HR, 4 RBI, 6 BB and 7 runs scored.

WHAT A RELIEF—Last night the Rays bullpen combined for 5 scoreless innings…over the last 3 games (all wins), the Rays bullpen has hurled 10.2 scoreless innings (3-H, 3-BB, 7-SO)…over the team’s last 5 wins, the Rays bullpen has totaled 17.2 scoreless innings (6-H, 5-BB, 13-SO)…RH Tom-my Hunter has retired his last 16 BF…RH Brad Boxberger threw 2 perfect innings last night, his longest outing in almost three years (Aug 10, 2014 at CHC, 2.0), and matching his longest as a Ray (8th time)…RH Steve Cishek has thrown 4.2 scoreless innings (1-H, 1-BB, 5-SO) since being acquired from Seattle on Friday.

Ê RH Alex Colomé recorded his 33rd save last night, tying COL Greg Holland for the major league lead and 5 more than any other AL closer…Colome’s next save will be the 71st of his career, tying RH Danys Báez for 3rd place on the Rays all-time list behind RH Ro-berto Hernández (101) and RH Fernando Rodney (85).

REHAB WATCH—RH Jake Odorizzi (lower back strain) is scheduled to make his first rehab start for Class-A Charlotte tonight at Dunedin (Blue Jays), throwing 3-4 innings.

TONIGHT’S STARTER—RH JAKE FARIA (5-1, 2.93)

Ê LAST START—On Sun at NYY, pitched on his 24th birthday, becom-ing the first visiting rookie to start at the Bronx on his birthday since TB Jason Hammel in 2007…went 4 IP, the shortest start of his career, allowed a career-high 5 BB and threw 51.1 pct. of his pitches for strikes, incl. first-pitch strikes to only 4 of 20 BF…allowed a 2-run homer to Ron-ald Torreyes in the 2nd and an RBI double to Torreyes in the 4th…issued walks to his 2 BF in the 5th, but the bullpen didn’t allow a run to score…his line: ND, 4 IP, 3 H, 3 R, 5 BB, 8 SO, 1 HR, 92 pit, 47 str.

Ê REDEFINING QUALITY—Has 8 “quality starts” in 10 career starts, the most ever by a Ray through 10 career apps, ahead of RH Alex Cobb (7) and RH Ryan Rupe (7)…has yielded 3 runs or fewer in 9 starts, also the most by a Ray through 10 apps, ahead of Cobb (8) and LH Blake Snell (8)…has made 8 starts of 6 IP (or more); only RH Andy Sonnanstine (9) made more through his first 10 apps…began his career with 7 consecutive quality starts, the first pitcher to do this since NYY Masahiro Tanaka (16) from April 4–June 28, 2014.

Ê Five times this season he has gone 6 IP (or more) and yielded 1 run (or fewer)…the only other Ray to do that as often this season is Alex Cobb (6)—in 12 additional starts…since Baseball Refer-ence data is available (1913), only five pitchers have done that more frequently within their first 10 career apps.

Ê GOOD COMPANY—Was recalled from Triple-A Durham on June 7 to make his major league debut against the White Sox…since then:

Ê His 2.93 ERA is 5th in the AL behind four former All-Stars: CLE Corey Kluber (1.90), BOS Chris Sale (2.47), OAK/NYY Sonny Gray (2.63) and BOS Drew Pomeranz (2.93, by pct. points).

Ê His 5 wins are T-5th in the AL and one shy of SEA James Paxton, HOU Brad Peacock, BOS Chris Sale and KC Jason Vargas.

Ê His .833 winning pct. is T-2nd in the AL (min. 5 decisions), trailing only HOU Brad Peacock, who is 6-1 for a .857 winning pct.

Ê Ranks among AL leaders in H/9 IP (7.19, 4th), HR/9 IP (0.88, 9th), opp avg. (.221, 6th), opp SLG (.342, 7th) and opp OPS (.641, 7th).

Ê ROOKIE LEADERS—Since his recall, his 58 SO are tied for 1st among major league rookies with PHI Nick Pivetta…his 2.93 ERA

leads ML rookies, ahead of LAA Parker Bridwell (3.06)…also ranks among ML rookie leaders over this span in wins (T-1st), winning pct. (T-1st), WHIP (1.16, 1st), opp avg. (.221, 1st) and opp OPS (.641, 1st).

Ê Strikeouts—His 58 SO are the most ever by a Ray through 10 apps, ahead of Blake Snell in 2016 (56)…he actually already holds a share of the club record through 11 career apps.

Ê POWER OF THE RING—Has only lost once since his May 23 engage-ment…is 6-1 with a 2.74 ERA (72.1-IP, 22-ER) in 12 starts between the majors and minors since then…he joined James Shields (2006) as the only starters in Rays history to begin his career on a 4-game win-ning streak…while Faria took the loss in his eighth start, Shields was 4-0 through 5 starts and took the loss in his sixth career start.

Ê ELIAS SAYS—Through 6 starts, was 4-0 with a 2.11 ERA (38.1-IP, 9-ER)…the Elias Sports Bureau noted the only other active pitchers who were 4-0 or better with an ERA that low through their first 6 career starts were PIT Zach Duke in 2005 (4-0, 0.92), LAA Jered Weaver in 2006 (6-0, 1.12) and SEA James Paxton in 2013-14 (5-0, 1.75).

Ê FARIA & FELIX—Through 5 starts, he was 3-0 with a 2.23 ERA (32.1-IP, 8-ER), 35 SO and 5 BB…according to STATS LLC, he became the second pitcher since data is available (1913) to total 35 SO (or more) and 5 BB (or fewer) in his first 5 career starts (no relief apps in be-tween), joining SEA Félix Hernández in 2005 (38-SO, 5-BB).

Ê HISTORIC START—Was the fifth pitcher since Baseball Reference data is available (1913) to go at least 6 IP, allow 1 run or fewer and earn the win in his first 3 career apps…he joined STL Andy Rincon (Sep 15-26, 1980), CIN Wayne Simpson (April 9-19, 1970), STL Stu Miller (Aug 12-22, 1952) and DET Alex Main (April 18-28, 1914).

Ê AT TRIPLE-A—Went 6-1 with a 3.07 ERA (58.2-IP, 20-ER) in 11 starts with Triple-A Durham…at the time of his recall, he ranked among In-ternational League leaders in wins (T-1st), SO (84, 1st), ERA (9th) and opp avg. (.204, 2nd), and among Rays minor league leaders in wins (T-1st), SO (1st) and ERA (T-7th)…allowed 2 runs or fewer in 7 of his 11 starts with Durham, and two of his last 3 starts there were scoreless.

#16 KEVIN CASH, MANAGER Ê Selected by Indians Manager Terry Francona to join the AL coaching staff

for the 2017 All-Star Game, his first career All-Star appearance as a player, coach or manager…joined Larry Rothschild in 2000 and Joe Maddon and his entire coaching staff in 2009 as Rays managers/coaches to go.

Ê Played 12 professional seasons as a catcher, including parts of eight sea-sons in the majors (2002-10)…spent two years (2005-06) in the Rays org.

Ê Played in the 1989 Little League World Series (Tampa Northside LL), 1999 College World Series (Florida State) and earned World Series rings in 2007 (Red Sox) and 2009 (Yankees).

TOMORROW’S STARTER—RH ALEX COBB (9-7, 3.89) Ê LAST START—On Mon at HOU, lasted 3 IP, his shortest start since

Sep 27, 2016 at CWS (3 IP)…yielded 8 runs, tied for the 2nd-most in his career and one shy of his career high (9, June 3 at SEA)…marked his second career start without a strikeout, both this season (April 16 at BOS)…allowed 3 runs in the 2nd inning and 5 runs in the 3rd in-ning…it was his second frame with 5 runs (or more) this season (also June 3 at SEA, 5-run 5th); prior to this year, he hadn’t allowed that many in an inning since June 10, 2013 vs. BOS (6-run 1st)…his line: L, 3 IP, 9 H, 8 R, 2 BB, 0 SO, 2 HR, 64 pit, 38 str.

Ê Yielded a career-high 9 runs on June 3 at SEA and 8 runs in his last start…in between, he was 5-1 with a 2.24 ERA (64.1-IP, 16-ER) in 9 starts (June 9–July 26).

Ê vs. MILWAUKEE—On July 29, 2014 at home, made his only career start against the Brewers…had 12 SO, one shy of a career high, and his only run allowed in 8 IP was a Scooter Gennett sac fly…the only Brewer in the starting lineup that day who remains in their organization is Ryan Braun…retired his first 10 BF and faced the minimum through 4 IP…his line: W, 8 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 2 BB, 12 SO, 101 pit, 68 str.
