TORONTO — Manager Kevin Cash has been harping for the last few days about the need for the Rays to score earlier in games to put pressure on the opposing team.
He had grander things in mind, but the Rays made it work in Tuesday’s opener of a day/night doubleheader, scoring three times on outs and a fourth on a mad dash by Randy Arozarena to beat the Blue Jays 4-2.
The Rays snapped a three-game losing streak, improving to 79-61, and moved back ahead of the Jays to the top of the three-team American League wild-card field, tied with the Mariners, who play late Tuesday.
