 The Rays have won five straight games, and 10 of their last 11 overall. Over this 11-game stretch, Tampa Bay's bullpen has logged more innings than its starters (58.0 to 42.0). Only once in those 11 games has a Tampa starter factored into the decision, as the bullpen is 9-1 with a 2.48 ERA over that time.

 This decade (2010-19), the Rays have the sixth-best record of any team in baseball at 850-754 (.530). In the previous decade (2000-09), Tampa Bay's overall record of 694-923 (.429) ranked 28th in MLB.

 Lance Lynn has struck out 209 batters in his first season with the Rangers. Only three pitchers all-time have racked up more strikeouts in their first season with the Rangers: Nolan Ryan (301 in 1989), Fergie Jenkins (225 in 1974) and Yu Darvish (221 in 2012).

 Ryan Yarbrough enters this start with a 7.29 strikeout-walk ratio, which ranks second in the majors to Justin Verlander (7.33) among pitchers who have thrown at least 100 innings this season. The highest strikeout-walk ratio in Rays' history was 8.22 by David Price in 2014 (min. 100 IP).

 In eight games in September, Austin Meadows is batting .536 (15-for-28) with four home runs, nine RBI and 10 runs scored. Meadows, in this his age-24 season, has hit 28 home runs-- the only Ray with more home runs in a season at the age of 24 or younger was Evan Longoria (33 in 2009).

 At 72-73, the Rangers are within one game of .500 for the 63rd day this season. The only team that has been within one game of .500 more often this season is Arizona (95 days).

HP - Randazzo, 1B - Muchlinski, 2B - Drake, 3B - Timmons

The Tampa Bay Rays held their ground in the playoff chase with a 5-3, 11-inning road win over the Texas Rangers on Tuesday night, and it wasn't surprising that Austin Meadows was right in the middle of the heroics.
The teams will play the second contest of a three-game series in Arlington, Texas, on Wednesday night.

Rays, Meadows hope to keep bashing in Texas

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP)  Tampa Bay now has the slimmest of possible leads for the AL's top wild-card after a big comeback that was thwarted by some bad baserunning and Rougned Odor's big blast.
Odor hit a go-ahead, three-run homer in the seventh, after the Rays had two runners picked off in the top of the inning, and the Rangers held on for a 10-9 win Wednesday night to end Tampa Bay's six-game winning streak.
