SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 2016 vs. TORONTO BLUE JAYSRH Chris Archer (8-17, 4.10) vs. LH J.A. Happ (17-4, 3.23)

RAYS WIVES HELPING PET PAL—The Rays Wives have organized a charity auction of memorabilia with 100 pct. of proceeds benefitting the Pet Pal Animal Shelter in St. Petersburg…online bidding (raysbaseball.com/auction) ends today at 3 p.m., but fans can also bid today at Gate 1 and the Republic Bank Draft Room…the Rays Wives are also hosting their Fourth Annual Pet Food Drive…see separate Homestand Release for more info.

AUTOGRAPH SUNDAY—1B Logan Morrison and C Luke Maile are scheduled to sign autographs from noon–12:30 down the RF line for kids 14 and under…today all kids 14 and under will receive Superhero Cape Socks presented by Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital (while supplies last).

RAY MATTER—Today the Rays attempt to sweep the Blue Jays for the second time this season (also May 16-18 in Toronto)—while the Jays have been swept only one other time this year (April 25-27 vs. CWS)…the Rays have won 4 straight games and back-to-back series against first-place op-ponents (also Aug 19-21 vs. TEX) after losing 6 straight series against them prior to that…overall, the Rays have won 12 of their last 19 games…they are 24-22 since the All-Star break while holding the majors’ 3rd-best run differential (+59, see chart)…Rays had an AL-worst -74 run differential be-fore the All-Star break and went 34-54…over the last 16 wins they have outscored opponents, 118-37.

Ê The Rays are 16-7 over their last 23 home games…they are attempt-ing to record their third straight winning homestand after being the last AL team to record one.

Ê Today is the sixth of 26 consecutive games the Rays are playing vs. AL East opponents from Aug 29–Sep 25 (3-2 so far).

IF NOT FOR YOU—The Rays went 3-24 from June 16–July 16, the worst 27-game stretch in club history and worst by an AL club in a season since the Tigers began the 2003 season 3-25…apart from that, they are 55-52.

RALLY CAPS ON—The Rays trailed 1-0 as they began the 6th inning last night, then rallied for 5 runs on 6 hits…it was the 12th time this season scor-ing 5-plus runs in an inning, and sixth time since the beginning of August…tied their season highs for a single inning with 6 hits and 10 PA…the first 7 batters reached base before an out was made…according to the Elias Sports Bureau, the Rays streak of hits in 6 straight at-bats (not PA) was their longest to start an inning in four years plus one day…on Sep 2, 2012 at Rogers Centre, they began the 2nd inning by going 6-for-their-first-6 en route to a 6-run inning and a 9-4 victory over the Blue Jays, helping LH David Price pick up his 17th win.

SMALL BALL & POWER BALL—Last night CF Kevin Kiermaier delivered a bunt single to load the bases during the 6th-inning rally, his fourth bunt single of the season—all since moving to the No. 2 spot on Aug 2…all other Rays have 4 bunt singles combined this year…added a 2-run homer in the 7th inning, becoming the first Rays player with a bunt single and homer in the same game since OF Steven Souza Jr. on June 17, 2015 at WAS—whose bunt single came on a play that was thrown away by RH Blake Treinen, al-lowing Souza to score on a “little league home run”…it was Kiermaier’s 10th career bunt single but his first game with a bunt single and a homer.

RAYS vs. JAYS—The Rays lead the season series, 9-6 (5-4 here, 4-2 at Rogers Centre) and need to win only one of the remaining 4 games to clinch the season series for the eighth time in the last nine seasons (since 2008)…Tampa Bay has played Toronto exactly 162 times in the Rays era (since 2008) and is 99-63 (.611)…in the season series, the Rays have outscored Toronto, 80-60; have hit a home run in 14 of the 15 games; and have out-homered the Jays, 24-20…Toronto has out-homered all other opponents this season, 176-132.

Ê The Rays have scored 67 runs in the 9 wins (7.4 R/G) and only 13 runs in the 6 losses (2.2 R/G)…they scored only 20 runs in the first 7 games (2.9 R/G) of the season series, but have scored 60 runs in the last 8 meetings (7.5 R/G)…

Ê Rays all-time mark of 174-155 (.529) is their 2nd best vs. an AL op-ponent (Houston, 24-15, .615).

DEGREE OF DIFFICULTY—Today is the 16th of 36 straight games vs. teams that currently hold winning records (8-7 so far)…their only remaining series vs. a sub-.500 team (currently) is Sep 26-29 at CWS…the Rays have played a MLB-most 101 games vs. teams currently at .500 or better, and are 39-62 (.386) in those games…in contrast, the Rays are 19-14 (.576) vs. teams currently under .500…if the standings remain as they are, they would

finish the season with 125 games vs. clubs at .500 or better, the highest mark since 1991 when several AL teams did it.

MUSCLE MEN—The Rays have hit 180 HR this season, already tied for their 4th most in club history (see chart) and putting them on pace for 218…the Rays rank 7th in the majors in homers but 21st in runs scored (563).

LOGAN FORSYTHE—Has reached base in 16 of his last 25 PA (.640 OBP), including 8 of his 10 PA in this series…has reached base 4 times in back-to-back games for the second time in just over a month (also Aug 2-3 vs. KC), and the only other Ray to do that this year is Brandon Guyer (April 16-17)…the only player in Rays history to reach base 4 times in 3 straight games is Carlos Peña, May 24-26, 2008.

Ê Is batting .447/.527/.745 (21-for-47) vs. Toronto this season, tied with BOS Wade Boggs (1985) for 6th-highest avg. all-time.

SUPER BRAD—1B Brad Miller has 30 RBI in 30 games since the begin-ning of August, 4th in the majors behind COL Nolan Arenado (38), BOS Mookie Betts (31) and MIN Brian Dozier (31)…he already has more RBI since the All-Star break (37 in 42 games) than he collected before it (32 in 81 games)…last night drew his third career bases-loaded walk, first since June 23, 2015 vs. KC (with Mariners)…it was the second time this season the Rays have broken a tie on a bases-loaded walk—on June 15 vs. SEA, Logan Morrison drew a walk-off walk in the 13th.

Ê Twenty of his 26 HR this season have come at Tropicana Field (76.9 pct.)—the highest ratio in the majors of home runs coming at home (min. 20 HR)…his 20 HR at home rank 2nd in the AL to BAL Mark Trumbo (22) and rank 2nd in club history for a single season at Trop-icana Field, behind Carlos Peña in 2007 (23).

KEEPING UP WITH EVAN—3B Evan Longoria has hit 31 HR, two shy of his career high (33 in 2009)…he is on pace for career highs in hits (178), homers (37), extra-base hits (82), SLG (.537) and fielding pct. (.980, 1st among AL 3B)…he is also on pace for 41 2B and 102 RBI, which would be his third career 100-RBI season and first by any Ray since he did it in 2010.

COLOME REACHES 30 SAVES—RH Alex Colome converted his 30th save last night, becoming the sixth different pitcher (ninth time) to record 30 saves in a season…he joins RH Roberto Hernandez (twice), RH Danys Baez (twice), RH Fernando Rodney (twice), RH Rafael Soriano and RH Brad Boxberger…only two of those previous eight 30-save seasons had as few blown saves as Colome (2) at the time of his 30th save—Rodney in 2012 (30-for-31) and Soriano in 2010 (30-for-32)…Colome will be the Rays 11th different save leader in the past 12 seasons…has a 1.44 ERA (31.1-IP, 5-ER) in save situations and a 3.38 ERA (16-IP, 6-ER) otherwise.

Ê Also passed TOR Roberto Osuna for 5th in the AL in saves…his 95.2 pct. ranks 2nd among current AL relievers (min. 20 save opps) behind BAL Zach Britton (100.0).

ENNY STREAK MUST END—LH Enny Romero last night yielded 4 R/ER on a hit and a walk over 0.2 IP and was unable to finish the 9th inning after entering with a 7-1 lead…the outing snapped his streak of 7 hitless appear-ances and 14 scoreless apps.

CATCH THEM IF YOU CAN—Since the selection of C Bobby Wilson on Aug 5, the Rays catching tandem of Wilson and Luke Maile have combined to bat .292 (26-for-89) with 19 runs, 4 2B, 5 HR and 15 RBI in 27 games.

ROCK THE CATWALK—Thirteen balls have struck the catwalks in fair ter-ritory this season at Tropicana Field, tying 2001 and 2000 for most in a single season.

BISCUITS CLINCH; BULLS ELIMINATED—Last night the Double-A Montgomery Biscuits clinched the Second Half North Division with a 3-2 walk-off win over Tennessee (Cubs), meaning four of the Rays top six af-filiates reached the postseason…Triple-A Durham was eliminated last night despite a 7-3 win at Gwinnett (Braves)…Class-A Bowling Green, Short-A Hudson Valley and Rookie-level Princeton are also playoff-bound.

TODAY’S STARTER—RH CHRIS ARCHER (8-17, 4.10)

#16 KEVIN CASH, MANAGER Ê Already has more wins (138) than any of the 4 prev. managers in their first

Ê Has been ejected 4 times as manager, once this year (April 29 vs. TOR). Ê Is the fifth manager in Rays history…is the sixth Tampa-born manager

in ML history and second to manage the Rays…joins Hall of Famers Al

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 MATT ANDRIESE (6-6, 4.19) Ê LAST START—On Mon at BOS, yielded a career-high 7 runs and a

career-high 10 hits, including 7 XBH—the most by a Ray since Matt Moore on June 9, 2013 vs. BAL (7) and a club-record-tying 6 dou-bles…allowed doubles to 5 of his last 8 batters faced…yielded runs in the 2nd, (2), 4th (3) and 5th (2) innings, bringing his ERA to a season-high 4.19…his line: L, 4 IP, 10 H, 7 R, 1 BB, 4 SO, 1 HR, 96 pit, 60 str.

Ê SNAP THE SKID—Is 0-6 with a 5.47 ERA (51-IP, 31-ER) in his last 14 apps (7 starts)…has more losses during this streak (6) than the first 35 apps (15 starts) of his career (5)…is one shy of Drew Smyly (May 21–

July 18) for the longest losing streak by a Ray this season…is the sec-ond player in club history with a 6-game winning streak and a 6-game losing streak in the same season, following Chris Archer in 2015.

Ê vs. BALTIMORE—Is 0-2 with a 7.04 ERA (7.2-IP, 6-ER) in 4 career apps (1 start) against the Orioles…his current 6-game losing streak started at Oriole Park at Camden Yards, in G1 of the June 25 double-header…it’s his only app against the Orioles this season…in 2015, made 3 relief apps against them but only one at Tropicana Field, when he had a perfect 9th inning in a 2-1 loss on Sep 19.

Ê LAST START—Yielded 4 hits and 3 runs in his win over the Astros on Sunday at Minute Maid Park—all 3 runs and 3 of his 4 hits allowed came as part of a 34-pitch 4th that included a 2-run homer by Jose Altuve and RBI single by Jason Castro…to start the game, retired his first 8 BF before a 2-out, 3rd-inning HBP (and got through 3 IP on 36 combined pitches)…to end his start, retired his last 6 BF incl. 4 SO to reach double-digits for the first time since July 20 at COL (11)…his line: W, 7 IP, 4 H, 3 R, 2 BB, 10 SO, 1 HR, 1 HBP, 114 pit, 74 str.

Ê STRIKEOUTS—Leads the AL with 202 SO, ahead of DET Justin Ver-lander (198)…has reached double-digit strikeouts 6 times, 2nd in the AL to BOS David Price (7)…has done it 15 times since the start of 2015, tied with CWS Chris Sale for the AL over the last two seasons.

Ê With the Rays switching to a 6-man rotation, he is on pace for 33 starts and 238 SO…he set the club record in 2015 (252 SO).

Ê LOSSES—Has 17 losses, tied with SD/CWS James Shields for the major league lead…is one shy of tying Tanyon Sturtze’s 2002 club record (18)…his career high prior to this season was 13 (2015).

Ê The last pitcher to reach his combination of losses and strike-outs was MIN/NYM Frank Viola in 1989 (17-L, 211-SO)…only one AL pitcher has ever finished the season leading the league in both strikeouts and losses: CAL Nolan Ryan (1976).

Ê Is on pace for 20 losses, and would be the first 20-game loser since DET Mike Maroth in 2003 (21)…there hasn’t been a 20-loss season by a pitcher who was an All-Star in the season prior since ATL Phil Niekro in 1979 (20).

Ê SECOND HALF—Has gone 4-5 with a 3.05 ERA (59-IP, 20-ER) over his 9 starts since the All-Star break, a 1.61-point improvement on his 4.66 ERA before the break…this stretch has lowered his season ERA from 4.66 to 4.10, which is its lowest since he had a 3.60 ERA following his Opening Day start vs. the Blue Jays.

Ê PITCHING DEEPER—Since the All-Star break, has gone at least 7 IP in 5 of his 9 starts…in comparison, only did it twice in his 19 starts

Ê HOME vs. ROAD—His 2.61 ERA (89.2-IP, 26-ER) at home ranks 2nd in the AL and would be the best by a Ray since Alex Cobb in 2014 (2.59)…in comparison, his 5.79 ERA (79.1-IP, 51-ER) on the road is 3rd-highest in the AL…has received 2.01 R/9 IP in run support (89.2-IP, 20-RS) at home, lowest in the majors, and 6.81 R/9 IP on the road (79.1-IP, 60-RS), 8th highest in the majors.

Ê 1ST INNING—Has a 7.07 ERA (28-IP, 22-ER) in the 1st inning and a 3.51 ERA (141-IP, 55-ER) after that…at home, has a 2.57 ERA (14-IP, 4-ER) in the frame, compared to a 11.57 ERA (14-IP, 18-ER) on the road…hasn’t allowed a 1st-inning run in 10 of his last 12 starts.

Ê Pitched around a 1-out walk and 2-out infield single for a scoreless 7th yesterday vs. TOR…has a 2.00 ERA (9-IP, 2-ER) over his last 9 apps. Ê Leads the majors with 74.1 relief innings, 0.2 IP more than SD Brad Hand (73.2)…has made a major-league-most 31 relief apps of 4 outs or more—

eight more than anyone else…his 18 relief apps of 2 IP are tied for most in the majors and are the most by a Ray since J.P. Howell in 2008 (23). Ê Took his 10th loss on Wed at BOS, tying Brad Boxberger (2015) for the club record for a reliever…no other reliever has more than 7 this season. Ê Has yielded 12 HR, tied for most among AL relievers…are the most allowed by a Rays reliever since Al Reyes (13) and Gary Glover (12) in 2007. Ê Has stranded 25 of 30 IR…seven times he’s inherited the bases loaded (last Aug 22 vs. BOS); hasn’t allowed an IR to score in 6 of those 7 apps. Ê His 6 wins as a reliever (also won his only start on April 16 vs. CWS) are one shy of the club record for a reliever (last J.P. Howell in 2009).

#45 ENNY ROMERO, LH Last App: 9/3 vs. TOR (0.2-IP, 1-H, 4-R, 3-BB, 0-SO) Saves-Opps: 1-2 vs. LH: .236 (13-55), 1-HR2016: 2-0-1, 5.35 ERA, 45 G Long Relief App: 2.0, 4x-last 6/17 vs. SF IR-RS: 22-6 vs. RH: .225 (20-89), 4-HR

Ê Yielded 4 runs yesterday vs. TOR, his most since June 16, 2015 vs. WAS (career-high 5)…his 3 BB tied a season high (also May 4 vs. LAD)…snapped streaks of 14 straight scoreless apps and 7 straight hitless apps…it was his first hit allowed since Aug 1 vs. KC, prior to his DL stint.

Ê Recorded his first career save on Aug 25 vs. BOS with a strikeout of David Ortiz, his only batter faced…got him swinging to end a 6-pitch at-bat. Ê Has pitched to an 1.61 ERA (22.1-IP, 4-ER) in 22 apps on the road compared to an 10.47 ERA (16.1-IP, 19-ER) in 23 apps at Tropicana Field. Ê Has issued 26 BB for a 6.05 BB/9 IP ratio, highest among AL relievers…would be the highest for a Rays reliever since Dewon Brazelton in 2005.
