					<description><![CDATA[When the All-Star break arrived on July 9, the Tampa Bay Rays were legitimate contenders for a playoff berth. They were 47-43 and tied for second place with the New York Yankees in the American League East. They were three and one-half games behind the division-leading Boston Red Sox thanks to taking three of four games at home heading into the break. This space said “one month from now it should be clear whether they can actually contend for a&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The Baltimore Orioles bolstered their injury-depleted infield by acquiring Tim Beckham from the Tampa Bay Rays for a minor league pitcher just before the trading deadline expired. Beckham is batting .259 in 87 games with the Rays. He&#8217;s played second base, third and shortstop. The Orioles need a backup because shortstop J.J. Hardy and utility infielder Ryan Flaherty are on the disabled list. Tampa Bay received right-hander Tobias Myers in the deal. Although Baltimore started the day with a 50-54&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[C.J. Cron isn&#8217;t necessarily happy about his reduced role with the Los Angeles Angels this season. But when playing time does come, he&#8217;s determined to make the most of it. Cron did just that Sunday as a pinch hitter, connecting for a tiebreaking, two-run homer in the eighth inning and powering the Angels to a 4-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays. &#8220;It&#8217;s nothing I can control, so I&#8217;m just going to go out there and do whatever I can&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Jake Faria had about 200 friends and family members in the stands to watch him pitch for the Tampa Bay Rays in a stadium five minutes from his childhood home. The rest of the Big A crowd had its eyes squarely on Mike Trout in his return from a 39-game injury absence. Faria and Trout both had solid performances before Brad Miller took care of another win for the Rays. Trout went 1 for 5 in his first game since&#8230;]]></description>

They hope to continue their momentum after winning 6 of their last 9 games heading into the all-star break, including taking three of four from the Boston Red Sox. They begin the final two and a half months with a 47-43 record and tied with the New York Yankees for second place in the&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Dustin Pedroia, Jackie Bradley Jr. and Hanley Ramirez all homered, Drew Pomeranz won his third consecutive start, and the Boston Red Sox beat the Tampa Bay Rays 8-3 on Friday night. Pedroia hit a two-run shot during a four-run third, and Bradley Jr. had a fourth-inning solo drive off Jake Odorizzi (5-4) as Boston took a 5-0 lead.  Ramirez scored his 1,000th run on his ninth-inning solo homer.

					<description><![CDATA[The late Pete Rozelle was known to strive for “parity” during his days as NFL Commissioner. Perhaps the first 26 games of the Buccaneers’ franchise, when they went 0-26, influenced his mindset. Rozelle and the NFL tweaked schedules to help more teams reach 8-8 and make it harder for teams to regularly go 14-2. While the elite teams mostly remained elite for a reason, the end result saw most teams in the playoff hunt as the seasons reached their final&#8230;]]></description>
