8/17 - Rays (75-48) @ Rangers (44-80): Game 3

Andy Sonnanstine: (11 - 3), 2.55 ERA vs. Josh Rupe: (2 - 4), 5.37 ERA

ARLINGTON -- The Rays have won the third and final game of this series against the Rangers, avoiding a three-game sweep in Texas without the use of Akinori Iwamura and Rocco Baldelli, who both have injuries that should only last a few days. There was very little offense in this game, both teams with enough chances to score and couldn't. The first run of the game was scored in the fourth on an RBI single by Evan Longoria, who also knocked in the only other run of the game in the ninth on a sacrifice fly scoring Jason Bartlett from third.

Final Score:
Rays: 2
Rangers: 0
