(AP Photo/Jason Behnken) TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Colton Cowser hit a three-run homer and Charlie Morton allowed one run over six innings in his 400th major league game as the Baltimore Orioles beat the Tampa Bay Rays 4-1 on Thursday night at Steinbrenner Field. With two outs in the sixth, Cowser's drive off Edwin Uceta broke a 1-all tie. Cowser, who also doubled, has homered in three straight games.

He allowed six hits with no walks and seven strikeouts. Four relievers blanked the Rays over the final three innings. Félix Bautista retired the side in the ninth to earn his 15th save. Yandy Diaz doubled and singled to extend his hitting streak to 10 games for Tampa Bay. Drew Rasmussen (6-5) allowed two runs and four hits in 5 1/3 innings. He had won five straight decisions. In the top of the seventh, Rays pitcher Hunter Bigge was carted off the field in a frightening scene after he was struck by a foul ball in the dugout. Advertisement Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman fouled a pitch into the Tampa Bay dugout and it hit Bigge, a 27-year-old right-hander currently on the injured list with a lat strain. Emergency medical personnel quickly arrived to attend to Bigge. After several quiet minutes as Rays players knelt in the field, Bigge was placed on a backboard and carted off. He gave a thumbs-up gesture as fans rose for a standing ovation. The game resumed after a delay of nearly nine minutes. Key moment With two outs in the eighth, Orioles reliever Bryan Baker walked Junior Caminero to load the bases in a 4-1 game, then retired Jake Mangum on a flyball to escape the jam.

Walls, Diaz lift Rays to 8-4 victory and series win over Mets
NEW YORK — Taylor Walls and Yandy Díaz had two hits and two RBIs apiece and the Tampa Bay Rays remained hot with an 8-4 win over the New York Mets on Saturday. Junior Caminero homered to lead off a five-run fourth inning for Tampa Bay, which has won eight of its last 11 games and leads the majors with a 17-6 record and 134 runs scored since May 20. Josh Lowe and Brandon Lowe each finished with two hits and an RBI. Drew Rasmussen (6-4) won his fifth straight decision despite allowing seven hits and four runs in five innings. He struck out three. He had allowed two runs over 29 innings in his previous five starts. Brandon Nimmo had three hits and two RBIs while Brett Baty and Ronny Mauricio each homered for the Mets, who lost consecutive games for the first time since a three-game skid from May 18-20. The series loss is the first for New York since it dropped two of three against the Boston Red Sox from May 19-21. The Mets are one of three teams who have not been swept in a series this season, along with the New York Yankees and Cincinnati Reds. Tylor Megill (5-5) gave up six runs (three earned) in 3 2/3 innings. He struck out five. Walls laid down a safety squeeze to score Jake Mangum with one out in the fourth and put the Rays ahead for good at 3-2. Megill has a 5.79 ERA in his last eight starts after opening the season with a 1.74 ERA in his first six starts. Overall in his five-season career, Megill has a 2.45 ERA in March and April and a 5.01 ERA thereafter. The series ends Sunday when Mets RHP Griffin Canning (6-2, 3.22 ERA) starts against Rays RHP Shane Baz (5-3, 4.97 ERA) ___ AP MLB:
