ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Evan Longoria homered twice, Jake Odorizzi picked up his first home victory this season and the Tampa Bay Rays won for just the fourth time in 28 games by beating the AL East-leading Baltimore Orioles 5-2 on Sunday.
Longoria had solo shots in both the first and eighth innings. He has 21 homers this season after his 17th career multihomer game.
Odorizzi (4-5), who was 0-3 in 10 previous starts at Tropicana Field, gave up two runs and seven hits in six innings. Overall, he had been 0-2 in six starts since winning June 8 at Arizona.
Oswaldo Arcia had a two-run shot during the second and Brad Miller added a third-inning solo driver as the Rays took a 4-1 lead against Dylan Bundy (2-2), who allowed four runs and five hits over 3 1/3 innings in his first major league start.
All-Star Alex Colome got three outs for his 20th save in as many chances.
