The Rays are playing at another level of baseball; they've secured a playoff berth and recently reached their 90th win of the season. After taking two of three in their series in Atlanta against the Braves, they also swept the Astros; now they face the Athletics after winning 14-4 on Sunday in a 15-hit game, in which Freddy Peralta pitched five no-hit innings and said afterward that he sees this team as having a chance to win it all.
In that Monday game before their Tuesday night rest day, Díaz went 2-for-5, Aranda 2-for-5, and Mesa 3-for-5; Palacios and Madrigal also went 2-for-4. Caminera recently hit his 40th home run of the season, a walk-off homer to clinch a playoff berth; the Dominican's epic season seems to have no end.
Back in August of this year in Sacramento, the Rays swept the Athletics, scoring 10, 12, and 8 runs in a series where they lived up to their pregame odds as favorites in each game.
