Rays extend Yanks' skid to 4, rally on Walls and Aranda infield grounders in
10th for 5-4 win

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) --- Taylor Walls and Jonathan Aranda had run-scoring
infield grounders in the 10th inning, and the Tampa Bay Rays rallied late twice
to beat the Yankees 5-4 Saturday night and extend New York's losing streak to
four.
Former Ray Jos Caballero, in a 1-for-29 slide, twice had go-ahead hits for the
Yankees. His two-out, two-run double off Bryan Baker gave the Yankees a 3-2
lead in the eighth but Tampa Bay tied the score in the bottom half when Nick
Fortes doubled leading off against Max Fried and scored on Yandy Daz's infield
hit, a high-hopper to first baseman Ben Rice.
Caballero had an RBI single in the 10th against Cole Sulser (1-0) for a 4-3
lead, but Chandler Simpson reached on a bunt single off David Bednar (0-2)
leading off the bottom half, moving automatic runner Cedric Mullins to third,
and Walls bunted to Bednar, whose throw home was too late to catch Mullins on
what was ruled a single.
Daz was intentionally walked and, with left fielder Cody Bellinger brought in
on the right side of a five-man infield, Hunter Feduccia struck out.
Aranda hit a one-hopper over Bellinger that glanced off the glove of onrushing
second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr., as Simpson crossed the plate standing on what
was scored a fielder's choice.
New York is 28th in the major leagues with a .202 batting average and is
hitting .142 (18 for 127) with six extra-base hits during the losing streak.
Reigning AL MVP Aaron Judge was 0 for 3 with two walks and is hitting .212.
Fried allowed three runs and six hits in eight innings. Rays starter Nick
Martinez gave up one run in 4 2/3 innings, Austin Wells' second-inning homer.
Up next Yankees RHP Cam Schlittler (2-0) and Rays RHP Drew Rasmussen (0-0) start Sunday's series finale.
