TUESDAY’S CHAMPION—Before every Tuesday home game at Tropi- cana Field, the Rays host a child from the Make-A-Wish Foundation or Children’s Dream Fund as a part of the “Tuesday’s Champion” program… today, the Rays welcome Make-a-Wish’s James Dolan, 5, who suffers from a disease of the digestive system…James will be on the field during Rays batting practice as part of his day at the ballpark. ROSTER MOVE—After last night’s game, the Rays optioned LH Enny Romero to Triple-A Durham…today the Rays recalled RH Kirby Yates. RAY MATTER—The Rays suffered an 8-5 loss last night in the lid-lifter of a 10-game homestand, their second consecutive loss on the heels of a 4-game winning streak…they have still won 8 of their last 11 games and 14 of their last 20 (since June 2)…they remained alone atop the AL East, as second-place New York lost to Philadelphia…the Rays have held sole possession of first place for 8 straight days, and a share of first for 10 straight days…overall this season, they’ve had a share of first place 20 days, including 13 days alone on top…the last time they had sole possession of first place this late in the season was end of play July 30, 2013. Ê In their last 2 home games, the Rays have allowed 16 runs (June 16 vs. WAS) and 8 runs (last night)…in between, they allowed a total of 6 runs on a 5-game road trip.

Ê Last night the Rays fell to 28-6 (.824) when they score first, still best in the majors, compared to 11-26 when their opponent scores first. TIGHTLY BUNCHEDThe top four teams in the AL East are separated by only 2.5 games—the closest the division’s top four teams have been on this date since divisional play began in 1969…it’s the closest any division’s top four teams have been on this date since the NL West in 2006 (four teams within 2.0 games)…these four AL East clubs have four of the majors’ six best records in the month of June (see chart). UNTIMELY HITTING—The Rays 15 hits last night were their most in a loss since Aug 7, 2013 at ARI (16)…their 14 LOB were their most in a 9-inning game since June 6, 2014 vs. SEA (15)…they went 4-for-18 with RISP, and their 11 SO with RISP tied a club record (Sep 29, 2012 at CWS)…Rays have outhit opponents 22-14 the last 2 games yet lost them both, going 4-for-26 (.154) with RISP. RAYS vs. BLUE JAYS—The Rays are 6-2 vs. Toronto this season (3-1 at home, 3-1 on road)…this is their first series in nearly two months, since April 24-26, when the Rays outscored them 21-6 and completed their first sweep of Toronto at home since Sep 21-23, 2012…the Rays 161 wins are their most against any opponent…their 161-142 (.531) record is their 2nd best vs. an AL opponent (16-10 vs. HOU)…the Rays were 8-11 last year, ending a streak of six straight winning seasons vs. the Jays, during which time they were 72-37.

Dickey in 2013…he’s faced SEA Felix Hernandez twice, and the two pitchers haven’t allowed a run in a combined 31.1 IP in those 2 games…his lone win was against on July 21, 2013 at TOR (7-IP, 5-H, 1-R/ER, won 4-3). RUNNIN’ RAYS—Last night the Rays recorded 5 SB, their most in a game since July 3, 2012 vs. NYY (5)…they had 3 SB in the 1st inning, their most in any inning since May 18, 2012 vs. ATL (3)…their 54 SB this year are twice their total last year after 72 games (27)…they rank 4th in the majors and 2nd in the AL, behind Houston (56).

OBSTACLE COURSE—The Rays stand alone in first place at 40-32 despite: Ê using a major-league-most 44 players (tied with ATL), 26 pitchers, 21 relief pitchers and 16 rookies…according to Stats LLC: Ê 44 players used is a club record before the All-Star break (43 in 2003) Ê 26 pitchers used is a club record (25 in 2006)…the Rays are one of only 10 teams in major league history to use 26 pitch- ers before the All-Star break, and only three teams have used more pitchers before the break: the 2013 Blue Jays (29), 2014 Angels (28) and 2014 Rangers (28)…the Rays have a chance to become the first team since divisional play began in 1969 to lead the majors in pitchers used and win their division. Ê 21 relievers used is 2 shy of the club record (2004) Ê 16 rookies ties the club record (2001, 2011)…7 are on the roster currently.

Ê LEAGUE LEADERS—Ranks among AL leaders in SO (116, 3rd), ERA (2.18, 2nd), wins (8, T-2nd), innings (95.0, 8th), starts (15, T-1st), SO/9 IP (10.99, 3rd), HR/9 IP (0.47, 4th), WHIP (1.00, 4th), opp avg. (.207, 4th), opp OBP (.261, 5th) and opp SLG (.277, 3rd)…averaging 5.04 SO/BB, more than double his 2014 rate (2.40)…according to STATS LLC, opposing hitters have missed on 30.0 pct. of their swings, 2nd-highest rate in the AL.

Ê CHANNELING PEDRO—Only one other pitcher in the majors can match his combination of wins (8), SO (116) and ERA (2.18): WAS Max Scherzer (8-5, 102.1-IP, 123-SO)…the last three pitchers to match that combination on this date were NYY Masahiro Tanaka (2014), BOS Pe-dro Martinez and ARI Randy Johnson…Pedro and Johnson both did it en route to winning Cy Young Awards…Pedro was 9-3, 130 SO, 1.18 ERA on this date and Johnson was 11-1, 158 SO, 1.47 ERA.

Ê THE WIN COLUMN—Has won 5 straight decisions, tying his career high (June 23–July 27, 2013)…the Rays have won 7 of his last 8 starts (since May 12)…is 6-0 on the road, becoming the first in club history to start the season winning his first 6 road decisions (prev. 5, Jeff Nie-mann in 2010).

Ê ONE AND DONE—Has yielded 1 earned run or fewer in 9 of his 15 starts this year, and in a major-league-leading 25 of his 47 (53.2 pct.) starts since the start of 2014…next are SEA Felix Hernandez (24), LAD Zack Greinke (24) and DET/WAS Max Scherzer (24).

Ê BACK AND FORTH—Ranks 3rd in the AL with 116 SO, behind CWS Chris Sale (119) and CLE Corey Kluber (117)…Archer has held at least a share of the AL lead in strikeouts at the end of play of 23 days this season…Sale, Kluber and Archer all reached 100 SO in their 12th start…Archer tied David Price (2014) for fewest starts to reach 100 in franchise history.

Ê SLIDE RULES—Archer is throwing a career-high 39.4 percent sliders, 2nd in the majors and most in the AL (see chart)…has a major-league-most 83 strikeouts with the slider (75 swinging, 8 called), accounting for 71.6 percent of his total strikeouts this season…Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times had this quote from former teammate and cur-rent Detroit Tigers LH David Price, in a recent piece on Archer’s slider:

Ê MAKING HISTORY—From May 27–June 7, became the first player in the modern era (since 1900) to record 10-plus strikeouts and no walks in 3 consecutive starts, according to the Elias Sports Bureau…in those 3 starts, he went 2-0 with a 0.39 ERA (23-IP, 14-H, 2-R, 1-ER, 0-BB, 38-SO)…his 38 SO were the most ever in a three-start stretch without issuing a walk…named the AL Player of the Week for June 1-7.

Ê COMMUNITY CORNER—On Saturday, Archer made a surprise visit to Brookside Park (in Cleveland) to visit the local Junior Boys RBI team…he spoke to a group of almost twenty 13-to-15-year-olds, did a little Q-and-A, and stuck around for their practice.

Ê K’s FOR KIDS—For every strikeout Archer logs this season, he will join the Rays and WTSP 10 News to each donate $25 to be split among Burg Baseball Inc. and RBI Baseball of Tampa…his 116 SO have already raised $8,700 for the youth leagues this year.

Ê Ejected on May 10 vs. TEX in the 5th inning by HP umpire Mike Estabrook for arguing balls and strikes…was his second ejection as a manager.

Ê 37-year-old manager is the youngest skipper in the majors since ARI A.J. Hinch (34) in 2009 and youngest active manager/head coach in the four major sports, ahead of Boston Celtics head coach Brad Stevens (38).

Ê Is the fifth manager in Rays history…is the sixth Tampa-born manager

“i I don’t think baseball has ever seen this pitch before. It’s the best pitch in baseball by far. Chris Sale has an unbelievable slider and changeup, and Felix (Hernandez’s) changeup is phenomenal, and (Clayton) Kershaw’s curveball is really good. …But if anybody in

baseball could have one pitch, it’s got to be Archer’s slider.— David Price, Detroit Tigers LHP
