PITTSBURGH -- The Rays have won the final two games and the series here in Pittsburgh. Rocco Baldelli started the Rays offense in the second with an RBI single. In the sixth inning, Dioner Navarro hit a crucial two-run home run to extend the lead to three, crucial because in the bottom of the seventh, Jose Bautista hit his own two-run home run, narrowing that lead back down to one. Carlos Pena got those runs back in the eighth with HIS own two-run blast. The Pirates scored once more in the bottom of the eighth with an RBI double hit by Freddy Sanchez, but the Rays hang on to win this one.
