NEW YORK -- The Rays have lost the third and final game of this series in New York, the last game of the season these two teams will play together. The Rays got on the board first in the second with an Evan Longoria solo homer, but the Yankees came back in the bottom of the inning with RBI doubles from Robinson Cano RBI and Hideki Matsui to take a one run lead. B.J. Upton gave the Rays a two-run lead in the fifth on one swing of the bat, a three run blast. Evan Longoria extended that lead to three in the sixth with a solo shot, his second homer of the game. Alex Rodriguez gave the Yankees that run back in the bottom of the inning with his won solo homer. And finally, the Yankees stormed back in the eighth with four runs to take a two-run lead. Bobby Abreu belted a solo homer to come within one, Jason Giambi hit his own solo home run to tie it up, and Melky Cabrera got a two-run single to take the lead. Mariano Rivera closed it out for his twenty-fifth save of the season.
