PORT CHARLOTTE -- In their second preseason game against the Tigers, the Rays made a five run comeback to beat the Tigers on a walk-off. Eric Byrnes, once again, led-off the game with a solo shot. The Tigers would homer back-to-back innings as Jacque Jones belted a solo shot in the second. Carlos Guillen gave the Tigers two more in the fourth with a two-run homer. The Rays pitching would keep the Tigers offense quiet the rest of the game. Carl Crawford got the comeback started in the sixth with a two-run homer, followed by Carlos Pena with a solo shot to go back-to-back. In the eighth inning, Carl Crawford did it again with a solo home run, his second of the game to tie it up. And finally in the bottom of the ninth, Cliff Floyd led-off the bottom of the inning with a walk-off solo shot to right for the win.
