ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Alex Jackson and Yandy Díaz hit consecutive home runs in a three-run fifth inning to back Zack Littell, and the Tampa Bay Rays beat Cincinnati 4-0 on Saturday to stop the Reds’ three-game winning streak. Jackson, who was 10 for 100 this season going into the plate appearance, hit a 407-foot homer to left on an 0-1 sweeper from Andrew Abbott (9-7) at the bottom of the strike zone, his third home run this season. “I got something offspeed the pitch before and I felt like I saw it pretty good,” Jackson said. “So, I kind of told myself to be ready for it. I was able to catch it out in front and when I saw it leave the infield I was like: I think I got that one.” Díaz drove an 0-2 fastball to right-center for his ninth home run. Díaz returned Friday after missing seven games for personal reasons and went 1 for 5 with a single.
