BREWERS 1 RAYS 2 F...TAMPA BAY Hardball helps themselves and the REDBIRDS n BUCCOS as they slide by the NL Central leading BEER MAKERS of Wisconsin!..."MAKING NOISE" as the RAYS are joining the AL East Race of 2014! #MILvsTB

The Milwaukee Brewers are in a fight all by their lonesome now they are facing a Team that has been in a fight to get back to that Magical Mark in the Show when your coming from the "Show Dead"...the .500 mark in the Tampa Rays.

It was Rays Starter Jake Odorizzi who goes seven strong allowing three hits and a run (Brewers First Baseman Mark Reynolds Solo HR off Odorizzi in the 3rd) as the Brew Crew struck in the 3rd inning making it 1-0 "Piwowarzy". The Rays getting timely hit after timely hit in this recent streak get  another one. Former Dodgers and Red Sox Castoff First Baseman James Loney hits a two-run scoring single scoring both Ben Zobrist and Matt Joyce in the bottom half of the 6th making it 2-1 Rays. The Rays then get two scoreless innings in relief from Reliever Brad Roxberger and and Jake McGee getting his 12th Save as the Rays are just two games under the .500 mark at 52-54.

The Brew Crew falls to 59-48 as the Redbirds are 1.5 games back and the Buccos 2.5 games back leading the Gigantes as we go to press 5-0 late in the 6th. What is the "Mojo" down in Tropicana Field with all those Key Injuries to that String Staff...it's Skip Joe Maddon believing all the time 24-7-365!
