The Rays beat the Astros, 14 – 10, in an old-fashioned slugfest. Evan Longoria is given a game-tying two-run home run in the 6th, after initially being ruled out at second for attempting to stretch a single off the wall into a double; the instant replay shows the ball in fact bounced in the stands before falling back on the field. Longoria finishes the day 4 fo 6, adding a second homer in the 9th, a towering three-run shot that leaves no doubt as to its status.
