ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) Evan Longoria and Luke Maile homered, Jake Odorizzi won his fifth game since the All-Star break and the Tampa Bay Rays ended the Texas Rangers' four-game winning streak with an 8-2 victory Saturday night.

Odorizzi (8-5) is 5-0 with a 1.64 ERA in seven starts since the All-Star break.

Adrian Beltre and Elvis Andrus had two hits each for the Rangers, who entered the day with a seven-game lead in the AL West.

The Rays scored in each of the first two innings off starter A.J. Griffin (5-3). Matt Duffy drove in a run with a two-out single in the first, and Maile made it 2-0 with his first career home run in the second. Longoria's 28th homer made it 3-0 in the sixth.

Brad Miller had a three-run double in the seventh for Tampa Bay off reliever Keone Kela.
