Luke Raley - Crushes homer, scores twiceRaley went 2-for-4 with a solo homer and two runs scored in Thursday's win over the Athletics.

ImpactRaley got the offense going for the Rays Thursday, beginning with a single to right in the top of the second to advance Harold Ramirez to third. Both would then come around to score in the inning to put the Rays up 2-0 early. But the right fielder's work wasn't done yet as he later went on to crush a solo homer off Austin Pruitt in the eighth to help Tampa Bay jump back in front 3-2. With the two-hit performance, Raley is now batting .343 in June with two homers, six RBI and nine runs scored.

Taj Bradley - Records career-high 11 strikeoutsBradley did not factor into the decision Thursday, allowing three runs on four hits and three walks over 4.1 innings against the Athletics. He struck out 11.

ImpactBradley was dealing Thursday, striking out the first six batters he faced and nine of the first 12 overall. However, the rookie began to struggle with his command in the fifth inning, issuing back-to-back walks before eventually allowing three runs to come home as Oakland took a 3-1 lead. He was replaced by Kevin Kelly with one out in the inning, but not before notching a career-high 11 strikeouts. On the downside, Bradley has now failed to make it through five innings in two of his last three starts, issuing 10 walks over that stretch.

Paul Blackburn - Records season-high nine strikeoutsBlackburn did not factor into the decision Thursday, allowing three runs on seven hits and one walk over 5.2 innings against the Rays. He struck out nine.

ImpactBlackburn got in a jam in the second inning after Harold Ramirez reached on a fielding error by Ryan Noda to lead things off. The right-hander then went on to cough up three straight hits, which brought two runs home, before uncharacteristically striking out the side - all swinging, to get out of the inning. He wasn't quite able to make it through six innings but still managed to post a season-high nine strikeouts on the afternoon en route to his fourth consecutive no-decision. He'll look to earn his first win of the season when the A's travel to Cleveland to take on the Guardians next week.
