WASHINGTON (AP) — Luke Raley, Josh Lowe and Yandy Díaz homered in the ninth inning as the undefeated Tampa Bay Rays rallied for a 10-6 win over the Washington Nationals. Raley hit his third homer in two nights, a liner to left field leading off the ninth against Washington closer Kyle Finnegan to tie it at 6. Lowe followed with a shot into the second deck in right-center. With two on and one out, Diaz capped the outburst with a three-run homer to left-center. Jose Siri also went deep and Randy Arozarena had two RBI doubles for the Rays, who improved to 5-0 and extended the best start in franchise history. Ryan Thompson pitched one inning in relief for the win.
