Carl Crawford’s stolen base streak came to an end last night, but he more than made up for it by hitting a go-ahead home run against Yankee reliever Mariano Rivera in the 9th inning. Evan Longoria followed up Crawford’s first home run since last June with one of his own as the Rays held on for a 6-4 victory. The win gave the Rays a sweep of their division rivals and put them right back into the heat of things in the AL East. The Yankees are now reeling after their 5th straight loss, although they will have Alex Rodriguez back in the lineup tonight in Baltimore.
