Here is what they have:
SIMULATION RESULT
TAMPA BAY 6, NY YANKEES 3
The Tampa Bay Rays are struggling and our simulation process knows that but the simulation picks the Rays to win only their second game in their last seven tries. The key in this one was the fact that starting pitcher Matt Moore was able to hold the Yankees batting lineup to only three runs. He lasted a very decent 6.1 innings of work, allowed only 6 hits and struck out 5 batters along the way. Freddy Garcia continued to be horrible and lasted only 5.2 innings allowing 5 ER's, walking 4 batters and striking out only 2. BJ Upton broke out of his mini slump and hit a 2-Run Home Run in the 3rd inning and Jeff Keppinger drove in two runs. Moore did a great job against the Yankees lineup and he has been one of their most solid pitchers over the course of the last couple of weeks. The Yankees had won 9 of 10 on the road coming in but they always struggle at the Trop and the Rays find a way tow in.
PLAY: Tampa Bay Rays ML -121
PLAYER OF THE GAME: BJ Upton (Tampa Bay) 3-5, HR, 3 RBI, 2B, 3R
