ST. PETERSBUIRG, Fla. (AP) Tampa Bay's Grady Sizemore homered with one out in the seventh inning, ending Cody Anderson's bid to pitch a perfect game in his second career start for the Cleveland Indians.

Sizemore, playing in his second game since joining the Rays, lined a 1-2 pitch into the right-field stands to trim Cleveland's lead to 2-1. Evan Longoria followed with a double off the rookie right-hander.

Anderson is making his second major league start. He limited the Rays to six hits over 7 2-3 scoreless innings in his debut at Progressive Field on June 21, but was not involved in the decision of a game the Indians won 1-0.
