TUESDAY, AUGUST 1, 2017 at HOUSTON ASTROSRH Chris Archer (7-6, 3.80) vs. RH Mike Fiers (7-5, 3.71)

DIALED IN— It was a banner July for Rays viewership on Fox Sports Sun…July clocked in as the most-watched month of Rays baseball in the Tampa market (3.3 HH) since August 2015 and most watched month of Rays base-ball in the Orlando market (0.7 HH) since April 2015…July registered 8 of the top 9 most-watched games of the season on Fox Sports Sun.

RAY MATTER—The Rays lost last night’s series opener, 14-7, their most runs allowed in more than two years (June 16, 2015 vs. WAS, 16-4) and only the first time they allowed 14-plus in a road game since Aug 7, 2010 at TOR (17-11)…it was only the fifth time in 10 seasons of the Rays era (since 2008) that the Rays allowed 14 or more runs, compared to 33 times in 10 seasons as the Devil Rays (1998–2007)…the 17 hits allowed tied their sea-son high (third time, last May 3 vs. MIA)…the Rays have lost 9 of their last 12 games, dropping from a season-high 7 games over .500 (51-44 through July 18) with a 1.5-game lead for the first Wild Card spot to one game over .500 and 2.5 GB of the second Wild Card position…the Rays closed out the month of July at 12-13, after beginning the month 9-4…the Rays are 13-5-4 over their last 22 series, since May 12-14 at BOS.

Ê Last night was the 18th consecutive game that Rays pitchers allowed a home run, breaking the club record (prev. 17, 2x-last April 18– May 6, 2004)…they have yielded 30 HR total over this stretch.

ABOUT THE OFFENSE—The Rays scored 7 runs in last night’s loss, matching their most in a loss this season (May 15 at CLE, 8-7)…they hit 3 HR, but have now lost their last 3 games when hitting at least 3 HR (also July 29 at NYY, July 21 vs. TEX)…last night ended a streak of 14 games scoring 5 runs or fewer (tied for 4th longest in club history), and 24 consecu-tive games scoring 6 runs or fewer (tied for 3rd longest in club history).

RUNNING THROUGH THE GAUNTLET—The Rays are 1-4 so far on this 8-game road trip (1-3 at NYY, 0-1 at HOU), which began a stretch of 17 games against five opponents in playoff contention, including the AL’s four best teams (by winning pct.): New York-AL (4 games), Houston (4), Milwau-kee (3), Boston (2) and Cleveland (4)…prior to this trip, they had played their first 12 games out of the All-Star break against sub-.500 teams, going 6-6…the Rays are 3-8 so far in their stretch of 17 games in 17 days (July 21–Aug 6) and 30 games in 31 days (through Aug 20).

WHERE THEY STAND—With yester-day’s loss, the Rays dropped a game on both first-place New York (4.5 GB) and Boston (4.0 GB) in the AL East, and remained 2.5 GB of Kansas City for the second Wild Card position…this is still the closest they’ve been to first place at least 107 games into the season since end of play Aug 12, 2015 (4.5 GB of first-place Toronto)…this is their best record through 107 games since 2013 (64-43).

THE JUICE BOX SERIES—The 14 runs allowed by the Rays last night were their most ever allowed to the Astros, topping an 11-8 loss here on June 6, 2003, the very first time they met…17 hits allowed were also most in the all-time series…the Astros lead the Rays in the season series, 3-1…Houston won 2 of 3 games from the Rays when they visited Tropicana Field, April 21-23…the Rays own a 25-18 (.581) record all-time…they are 12-7 at home, 13-11 in Houston…they are 19-12 (.613) since the Astros joined the AL in 2013, and 8 of those 19 wins have been shutouts…the Rays would need to win all 3 remaining games to avoid their first series season loss since 2008 (1-2)…in 2016 they split the season series, 3-3.

RAYS STAND ALONE—Last night LF Corey Dickerson hit his 20th and 21st home runs of the season…in the 9th, newly acquired 1B Lucas Duda hit his 20th home run of the season (third with the Rays)…there are 46 play-ers in baseball who have hit at least 20 HR this season, and the Rays are now the only team with four of them on their roster (also Logan Morrison 26, Steven Souza Jr. 22).

Ê It was Dickerson’s seventh career multi-homer game and his team-leading third this season (last May 20 vs. NYY)…his 3 RBI were his most since June 9 vs. OAK (3)…has 4 HR in his last 37 AB.

Ê According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Duda is only the second player in club history to hit 3 HR in his first 4 games with the Rays, joining INF Chris Gomez in July 2001…Duda has hit safely in all 4 of his games with the Rays, batting .333/.471/1.083 (4-for-12) with 3 HR, 4 RBI, 4 BB and 4 runs scored.

POWER PLAY—The Rays rank 5th in the majors with 155 HR, and 3rd in the AL behind Houston (172, tops in majors) and Texas (160)…Rays are on pace for a club-record 235 HR (216 in 2016)…their 155 HR are a club record through 107 games (prev. 138 in 2016) and their 491 runs are their most since 2013 (498)…the Rays lead the majors with a club-record 11 back-to-back home runs, ahead of the Royals and Nationals (9).

SOUZA-PALOOZA—RF Steven Souza Jr. has established career highs with 22 HR, 65 RBI, 17 2B (tied with 2016), 55 BB and 60 runs scored…in 26 games since June 30, he is batting .297/.390/.615 (27-for-91) with 20 runs scored, 5 2B, 8 HR, 16 RBI, 12 BB and 5 SB…all 22 HR have come vs. RHP, which according to the Elias Sports Bureau makes him the first right-handed batter to hit his first 22 HR of a season off RHP since CHC Sammy Sosa (2004), whose 23rd homer came off a LHP…Sosa finished that season, his last with the Cubs, with 35 HR…no RH hitter since data is available (1913) has finished a season with at least 22 HR, all coming off a RHP; NYM Jeff Kent holds the record with 21 in 1993.

PITCHING IN THE MOONLIGHT—Last night C Jesús Sucre took the mound to pitch the 8th inning and totaled 1 IP, 2 H, 3 R/ER, 2 BB, 0 SO with a balk…it was the seventh time in club history that a position player pitched, first since Taylor Motter on July 1, 2016 vs. DET (0.1 IP)…it was actually Su-cre’s third career pitching appearance, as he did it twice for Seattle in 2015.

BITTEN BY No. 9—Last night Astros CF Jake Marisnick went 3-for-4 with 2 HR, 5 RBI and 4 runs scored out of the No. 9 spot in the order…it was the seventh time an opposing No. 9 hitter hit 2 HR, first since Carlos Peguero on June 2, 2011 at SEA…it was the third time the Rays had allowed at least 5 RBI to a No. 9 hitter, first since Mike Zunino on June 3 at SEA.

STRIKING OUT TEEN HOMELESSNESS—Tonight’s starter RH Chris Ar-cher ranks 3rd in the majors (2nd in AL) with 177 SO, trailing only BOS Chris Sale (211) and WAS Max Scherzer (201)…earlier today, it was an-nounced that Crown Automotive Group is joining Archer’s strikeout cam-paign to benefit local nonprofit Starting Right, Now which fights teen home-lessness…Crown will match the $25 per strikeout donation already pledged by Archer and the Rays Baseball Foundation…other local businesses and Rays fans can join the strikeout challenge by making their own pledge on-line at raysbaseball.com/archer.

SQUAD GOALS—Tomorrow the Rays have a chance to do something they’ve never done before: beat an opposing pitcher (LH Dallas Keuchel) who entered the game with a 9-0 record…on June 30, 1999 vs. BOS, the Rays handed reliever RH John Wasdin his first loss after he began the sea-son 7-0, which remains the best record (most wins without a loss) the Rays have ever spoiled…the last time the Rays beat a starter with a 6-0 record was on Oct 1, 2015 vs. MIA, when they defeated the late RH José Fernández.

ROSTER MOVE—The Rays recalled RH Ryne Stanek from Triple-A Durham and optioned RH Chase Whitley to Durham…since Stanek was optioned to Durham on June 11, he compiled a 0.51 ERA (17.2-IP, 7-H, 1-R/ER, 8-BB, 22-SO, .119 opp avg.) over 16 apps…his last 14 consecutive apps (15.1-IP) were scoreless, and he allowed only 2 BB over his last 12 apps (13.1-IP).

RAY-ENFORCEMENTS—The Rays acquired six veteran players over the six weeks leading up to yesterday’s non-waiver trade deadline, and all six had at least six seasons in the majors…the Rays have made 14 trades involving 40-man roster players since Jan 1, 2017, already their most in any calendar year (prev. 10 in 2007)…since their last time facing the Astros (April 23 at home), the Rays have turned over more than half of their active roster (13 of 25)…of the 13 new players, seven were acquired by trade, three were activated from the DL and three were recalled from Durham.

Ê The Rays have already used 49 players this season, topping their 2016 total (48), and approaching the club record of 52 (2000)…they have used a club-record 28 pitchers (prev. 25 in 2015, 2006).

REHAB WATCH—INF Daniel Robertson (neck spasms) played 6 innings at SS in the continuation of a suspended game yesterday for Class-A Char-lotte, and went 1-for-2 with a solo homer and a walk…his rehab assign-ment has been transferred to Triple-A Durham…RH Matt Andriese (right hip stress reaction) threw 37 pitches off a mound yesterday…LH Xavier Cedeño threw 15 pitches from halfway up a mound yesterday, and will do it again on Thursday…CF Kevin Kiermaier (right hip fracture) hasn’t played a rehab game for Class-A Charlotte since Friday, as he experienced mild back tightness…he is eligible to return from the 60-day DL on Aug 8.

TONIGHT’S STARTER—RH CHRIS ARCHER (7-6, 3.80)

Ê LAST START—On Thu at NYY, fell behind 3-0 but left in line for the win prior to Alex Colomé’s blown save…allowed an RBI double to Jacoby Ellsbury and RBI single to Todd Frazier in the 2nd, and a solo homer to Gary Sanchez in the 3rd…retired 9 straight after the Sanchez homer, then went single-single-walk with 1 out in the 6th but got consecutive strikeouts—Nos. 9 and 10 of his outing—to strand the bases loaded…was the first time he reached 10 SO at Yankee Stadium (ninth start there)…his line: ND, 6 IP, 7 H, 3 R, 2 BB, 10 SO, 1 HR, 102 pit, 71 str.

Ê DOUBLE DIGITS—Has reached double-digit strikeouts in consecu-tive starts for the third time this season (last May 21-26 vs. NYY, at MIN)…hasn’t reached 10 SO (or more) in 3 straight games since May 27–June 7, 2015 vs. SEA, at LAA, at SEA…has 25 double-digit strike-out games in his career, most in club history ahead of David Price (23)…has double-digit strikeouts 7 times this season, 3rd in the AL to BOS Chris Sale (14) and CLE Corey Kluber (10)…his 6 starts with 11 SO or more are tied with Kluber for 2nd in the AL behind Sale (8).

Ê PITCHING DEEPER—Has made 13 consecutive starts of at least 6 IP, the longest such streak of his career (prev. 9, June 23–Aug 9, 2015)…it is the longest such streak by a Ray since David Price from May 13–July 30, 2014 (15)…has made 8 starts this season of at least 7 IP, matching his total from 2016…has gone 7 IP (or more) and yielded 2 runs or fewer in 6 starts this season, compared to once in 2016.

Ê Is on pace for 268 SO, which would break his single-season fran-chise record, when he had 252 SO in 2015…is on pace to be-come the third Rays pitcher to record three consecutive seasons of 200 IP—RH James Shields did it in six straight seasons from 2007-12 and LH David Price in three straight 2010-12.

Ê MR. DURABLE—Leads the majors with 144 starts since June 1, 2013, the day he was recalled for good, ahead of Max Scherzer (142)…KC/SD/CWS James Shields entered this season as the major league leader over that span, but had a DL stint earlier this year.

Ê K’S FOR KIDS—Every strikeout he records will benefit the local nonprofit Starting Right, Now…for every strikeout, Archer, the Rays Baseball Foundation and Crown Automotive Group will each donate $25…Starting Right, Now combats homelessness for youth through one-on-one mentoring, providing a stable home, obtaining employ-ment, teaching financial literacy, life skills and promoting educational achievement…fans can make a pledge by visiting raysbaseball.com/archer…over the 2015-16 seasons, Archer’s 485 SO raised more than $35,000, which was split between Burg Baseball Inc. and Tampa RBI.

TOMORROW’S STARTER—RH AUSTIN PRUITT (5-2, 6.63) Ê LAST START—On Fri at NYY, three of his 4 hits allowed were homers

and all 5 runs scored via the long ball…his 5 IP and 7 SO were both career highs, and his 5 runs tied a career high…allowed a leadoff homer to Brett Gardner, retired his next 10 BF before a solo homer by Aaron Judge, then went 1-out walk, 2-out walk and 3-run homer by Clint Fra-zier in the 5th…threw 81 pitches, a major league career high and his most at any level since his last start of the 2016 season, on Sep 5, 2016 vs. Triple-A Norfolk (92, with Durham)…threw first-pitch strikes to 15 of 21 BF…his line: L, 5 IP, 4 H, 5 R, 2 BB, 7 SO, 3 HR, 81 pit, 58 str.
