The Tampa Bay Rays got some good news on Sunday with starter Zack Littell looking awesome through five innings of work. But Rays manager Kevin Cash made the call to pull Littell and put the game's outcome in the hands of his bullpen. It did not work out.

Junior Caminero, Danny Jansen and Christopher Morel each hit a solo homer, helping Ryan Pepiot and the Tampa Bay Rays beat the Detroit Tigers 8-3.

The Detroit Tigers, for the first time ever in an outdoor series with the Tampa Bay Rays in Florida, are in a rain delay in Tampa, Florida.
