The Tampa Bay Rays finished off a three-game sweep of the Colorado Rockies with a 4-0 win in Denver on Wednesday. Tampa Bay, the American League leader, used steady pitching and a few big extra-base hits to control the series finale.
Junior Caminero continued his strong set against Colorado by homering for the third time in the series. Victor Mesa Jr. also played a major role in the offense, tripling twice as the Rays kept pressure on the Rockies throughout the game.
On the mound, Nick Martinez pitched into the sixth inning and helped set the tone for the shutout. Tampa Bay’s pitching staff kept Colorado from generating any runs, allowing the Rays to protect the lead and close out another clean victory.
The result capped a dominant trip through Denver for Tampa Bay. With Caminero supplying power, Mesa creating chances, and the pitching staff holding firm, the Rays completed the sweep in convincing fashion.
