Rays 8, Blue Jays 5
: Carlos Pena highlighted a five-run fourth inning with a three-run homer as Tampa Bay evened the three-game series.

Luke Scott and B.J. Upton also went deep while Elliot Johnson collected three hits for the Rays, who are 3-4 on their eight-game homestand.

After opening the scoring with a leadoff blast in the second, Scott began the fourth with a double and scored on newcomer Drew Sutton's two-base hit. Three batters later, Pena deposited a 2-0 offering from Toronto starter Drew Hutchison (3-2) over the wall in center field for his sixth homer of the year and a 6-0 lead.

Chris Gimenez drove in his second run of the game with a two-out single in the fifth and Upton launched a solo shot in the sixth to cap the scoring.

Wade Davis (1-0) notched the win in relief of starter Matt Moore, who yielded four runs - two earned - in 4 2/3 innings.

Davis surrendered a run and three hits in two frames and Fernando Rodney struck out two in a perfect ninth for his 14th save.

Hutchison allowed six runs and seven hits in four innings.

Jose Bautista went 3-for-4 with two RBIs and Yan Gomes homered for the Blue Jays, who fell to 2-5 against the Rays this season.
