Christopher Morel was 3-for-4 with a double, two runs and two RBIs as every Rays batter scored and had an RBI in the first three frames.

Featuring a sharp 12-to-6 curveball, Rays starter Shane Baz (2-0) yielded one run on two hits in six innings. The right-hander fanned a career-high II without a walk and faced just 20 batters.

Boston's Kristian Campbell went 2-for-3 with a homer and has reached base in all 17 games he has played, but the visitors had only six hits in losing for the third time in four games.
