Starter Drew Rasmussen did his part, working six strong innings. The Rays hitters did theirs, scoring four runs in the first and two more in the second on a mammoth Brandon Lowe home run. It all added up to an 8-2 win over the Athletics Wednesday night .

A four-run first inning sets the tone, a Brandon Lowe homer adds to it and a solid six innings from Rasmussen makes it stand up.

The Rays are having a hard enough time winning games as it is. Lending a hand to the opposition is making it even tougher.

Mistakes on the mound and in the field, and a dominant outing by former teammate Jacob Lopez adds up to a loss.
