Rays outduel Jays 4-2 in 10
Evan Longoria hit a two-run double in the 10th inning and the Tampa Bay Rays spoiled what could have been Roy Halladay’s final start with Toronto, beating the Blue Jays 4-2 Friday night.
Halladay, the most sought-after player available on the trade market, pitched nine innings, then the Rays scored against Scott Downs (1-2).
With one out, B.J. Upton reached on a fielder’s choice and went to second when Carl Crawford walked. Longoria followed with a double that dropped just in front of left fielder Joe Inglett.
Matt Garza (7-7) allowed two runs and five hits in nine innings with nine strikeouts.
Halladay allowed two runs, one earned, and four hits. He struck out 10, the eighth 10-strikeout game of his career.
