Longoria had an RBI double in the first and singled in the seventh, finishing the three-game series 7 for 11 with six RBIs.

Logan Forsythe hit a second-inning solo shot and Dickerson's homer put the Rays ahead 5-1. Nick Franklin capped the offense with a three-run homer off Cessa in a four-run seventh as the last-place Rays stopped a three-game losing streak
