Yu Chang - Slugs third homerChang went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Wednesday against the Brewers.
ImpactChang took Brandon Woodruff yard in the fifth inning to record his third homer of the campaign. He's started three of the team's last four games, which has come at the expense of Ji-Man Choi. Though a limited sample, Chang has hit .333 with two homers, six RBI and six runs scored in 16 games since joining the Rays.

Hoby Milner - Fans two in reliefMilner faced two batters and struck out both of them Wednesday in a win over Tampa Bay.
ImpactAfter his performance on July 24 against Colorado, Milner had gotten his ERA down to 1.89. Since then he's been getting hit around much more, allowing seven earned runs over six innings and his ERA has ballooned to 3.07 -- not a bad mark, but quickly trending in the wrong direction.

Hunter Renfroe - Reaches base three timesRenfroe went 1-for-2 with two walks during Wednesday's win over the Rays.
ImpactAfter racking up six home runs in nine games during late July, Renfroe has gone ice cold at the plate, slashing .154/.333/.192 since the start of August. Wednesday's performance was somewhat a return to form, but it is definitely safe to say Renfroe's hot streak has come to an end.

Devin Williams - Collects third winWilliams (3-2) struck out one in a perfect 10th inning Wednesday to pick up the win in a 4-3 victory over the Rays.
ImpactHe needed only seven pitches (four strikes) to breeze through the top of the 10th inning thanks in part to Victor Caratini throwing out Taylor Walls attempting to steal second, and Williams got rewarded for his efforts when Willy Adames smacked a walkoff single against his former club in the bottom of the frame. Williams has yet to give up an earned run in four appearances since Josh Hader was dealt to the Padres, and on the season the right-hander sports a 1.66 ERA and 70:19 K:BB through 43.1 innings with seven saves in seven chances and 25 holds.
