AUGUST WRAP—With a win today, the Rays (14-14) can record their first winning (full) month since last August, when they went 14-13…August has been the Rays best month historically, with a 266-271 (.495) all-time record, followed by June (239-271, .469)…Rays pitchers lead the majors with 267 SO in August, ahead of Houston (264) and Cleveland (253), and have re- corded double-digit strikeouts in 14 of 28 games…their 3.53 ERA (247-IP, 97-ER) ranks 4th in the majors and is their lowest in any month since June 2015 (3.32).

KEEPING UP WITH EVAN—Longoria is on pace for 103 RBI, which would be his third career 100-RBI season and first by any Ray since he did it in 2010…his 31 HR tie for his 2nd-highest mark of his career (33 in 2009)… Evan is on pace for career highs in hits (181), homers (38), extra-base hits (84, which would tie Aubrey Huff’s 2003 club record), slugging pct.

Ê Among active players, Longoria is tied for 2nd (with NYY Mark Teix- eira) for most career home runs vs. Boston (Bautista has 40) and 2nd with 16 HR as a visitor at Fenway Park (Bautista has 23). Ê Yesterday’s homer marked his 10th this season in the 7th inning or later, T-5th in the AL and his most since 2011 (13)…was his 50th regular season at-bat vs. Clay Buchholz, the pitcher he had faced the most without a homer (had one in Game 3 of the 2013 ALDS). RAYS vs. RED SOX—Last night the Rays snapped a 4-game losing streak at Fenway Park and improved to 7-8 in the season series (3-5 here, 4-3 at home)…their last 3 wins over Boston have come by a one-run margin… they would need to win 3 of the remaining 4 games to avoid losing the sea- son series for only the second time in the Rays era (since 2008)—they went 7-12 in 2013…they have now played 162 games vs. Boston since becom- ing the Rays in 2008, and are 85-77 (.525)…the Rays offense has scored a dozen-plus runs twice in the season series but has averaged 2.7 R/G in the other 13 games…the clubs meet a final time at Tropicana Field, Sep 23-25, the Rays final home series of 2016. AIR MAILE—Last night C Luke Maile hit a game-tying, 2-run homer in the 7th inning…in the last 60 years, only two other rookie catchers visiting Fenway Park have hit a game-tying or go-ahead home run in the 7th inning or later: NYM Omir Santos on May 23, 2009 (2-run go-ahead homer in the 9th off RH Jonathan Papelbon) and MIL Ned Yost on Sep 29, 1982 (3-run go-ahead homer in the 9th off RH Mark Clear). MUSCLE MEN—The Rays 174 HR this season put them on pace for a club-record 215 (199 in 2009) and are their most ever through 131 games (170 in 2009)…the Rays rank T-7th in the majors in homers but 22nd in runs scored (545)…47.4 pct. of their runs have scored via HR, the 4th-highest ratio behind the Mets (53.3), Orioles (50.9) and Mariners (49.3). Ê This season 40.6 pct. of the Rays total hits (435 of 1,072) have gone for extra bases, the highest ratio in the majors, followed by the Car- dinals (39.6), Blue Jays (39.5) and Astros (38.5)…league average is 35.0 pct. …the highest percentage in club history is 37.1 pct., in 2009. ALEX COLOME—Converted his 29th save last night (T-5th in AL), and his first since Aug 17 vs. SD…is 29 for 31 in save opps (93.5 pct.), 2nd best among current AL pitchers behind BAL Zach Britton (100.0)…with his next save, will become the sixth different pitcher (ninth time) in Rays history to record 30 saves in a season…will be the Rays 11th different save leader in the last 12 seasons…has a 1.45 ERA (31-IP, 5-ER) in save situations and a 3.38 ERA (16-IP, 6-ER) otherwise. ALL SMYLES—Today’s starter LH Drew Smyly has gone 20.1 consecu- tive scoreless innings against the Red Sox, within reach of the club record for most consecutive scoreless innings vs. a single opponent (Matt Garza, 25.1 IP vs. TOR in 2008). SHELTER FROM THE STORM—With “Tropical Depression 9” bearing down on the Florida coast, Rays director of team travel Chris Westmore- land has made contingency plans for the team’s flight to divert to Orlando or Fort Myers if weather won’t allow them to land in Tampa as scheduled… it’s worth noting that the Rays have had home games affected by two hur- ricanes, in 2004 (Frances) and 2000 (Gordon)…details on those circum- stances can be found on page 149 of the 2016 Rays Media Guide. MODERN MEDICINE—On Friday vs. TOR, RH Alex Cobb will become the 12th pitcher to return to the majors this season after undergoing Tommy John surgery…he is the seventh to return among the 25 major league pitchers who had the surgery in 2015 (Cobb’s was May 14 by Dr. James Andrews in Birmingham, Ala.)…a full list of those who have returned this season: Ê 2015 surgery: TEX Yu Darvish, NYM Josh Edgin, CHC Joe Nathan, LAD Brandon McCarthy, CIN Homer Bailey, COL Adam Ottavino Ê 2014 surgery: LAA Tyler Skaggs, COL Tyler Chatwood, ATL Chris Withrow, TEX A.J.

Ê Has yielded multiple homers in 8 starts this season, T-3rd in the majors to and the most such apps by a Ray since James Shields (8) and Jeff Niemann (8) both did it in the 2010 season.

Ê His 6 HR allowed to left-handed hitters are a career-high and tied with two others for the most by a LHP in the majors…didn’t allow one to a left-handed hitter last season.

Ê RUN SUPPORT—Has gotten 6.69 R/9 IP (75.1-IP, 56-RS) in run sup-port on the road, 9th highest in the majors and 5th in the AL…his road

ERA (5.38) is 1.16 points higher than at home (4.22), but has same number of wins (3 apiece)…in comparison, has gotten 2.41 R/9 IP (74.2-IP, 20-RS) in run support at home, 3rd lowest in the AL to TB Chris Archer (2.01) and HOU Lance McCullers (2.40).

Ê THE BIG INNING—Ten times this season he has allowed at least 3 runs in a single inning…however, all 10 instances came before the All-Star break (last July 6 vs. LAA, 3rd inning)…in comparison, he only did it 7 times in 395 career innings prior to this year.

Ê HARD TO HIT—Two times he has gone 7 IP and yielded 1 hit, the only pitcher to do it twice this season (source: Elias Sports Bureau)…did this on April 19 at Fenway Park (8 IP) and on Aug 15 vs. SD (7 IP).

Ê AGAINST A.L. EAST FOES—Owns a career 13-4 record and 2.32 ERA (171-IP, 111-H, 44-ER) in 35 games (24 starts) vs. Rays divisional opponents (TOR, NYY, BOS and BAL)…the Rays are 14-6 in his 20 starts vs. the AL East since he joined the team.

Ê MUCH IN COMMON—Has modeled parts of his pitching style after LH Cliff Lee, another Arkansas native and former Razorback with an assortment of pitches…the two have the same agent (Darek Brau-necker) and have worked out together in past offseasons.

Ê His 9 losses are the most among major league relievers and one shy of the club record for a reliever (Brad Boxberger, 10 in 2015)…his 6 wins as a

reliever (also won his only start) are one shy of the club record for a reliever (last J.P. Howell, 2009).
