Rays top Indians again

Tommy Pham helped the Tampa Bay Rays turn on the juice Saturday night — first with a blender, and then with his bat. Pham and Avisail Garcia hit two-run homers, Ji-Man Choi and Travis d’Arnaud had solo shots, and the Rays beat the Cleveland Indians 9-6. The Rays have won the first two games of the three-game set to tighten the AL wild-card race. Cleveland holds a half-game lead over Tampa Bay and Oakland for the first wild card. Carlos Santana and Francisco Lindor hit two-run homers for the Indians, who are also 4 1/2 games in back of AL Central-leading Minnesota.
