Rays hit 4 homers in 7-6 win over skidding Orioles

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Pat Burrell hit a go-ahead sacrifice fly in the eighth inning and pinch-hitter Willy Aybar had one of four Tampa Bay homers as the Rays extended the Baltimore Orioles’ losing streak to 11 games with a 7-6 victory Monday night.

Ben Zobrist opened the eighth with a double off Chris Ray (0-4) and went to third on B.J. Upton’s grounder. Burrell’s fly ball against Danys Baez broke 6-all tie.

Tampa Bay tied it at 6 on Aybar’s three-run shot in the seventh off reliever Matt Albers.

Gabe Kapler, Zobrist and Evan Longoria also homered for the Rays, who are 8-5 since an 11-game skid. Tampa Bay has hit 193 homers this season, breaking the team record of 190 set in 2006.
