The Tampa Bay Rays own the best road record of any team in the majors this season, in part due to their success at Baltimore's Camden Yards. The postseason contenders will have their sights set on another victory over the homestanding Orioles when the two American League East foes continue a three-game series this evening.
The best road record in the majors is a big reason why the Tampa Bay Rays appear primed for their second postseason appearance in team history. Three visits to Baltimore have certainly aided that cause. After opening a nine-game road trip with another victory over the Orioles, the Rays look to set a franchise record in road wins Saturday night while improving to 7-1 at Camden Yards.

By Marc Topkin, Times Staff Writer Saturday, September 4, 2010 BALTIMORE — RHP Matt Garza didn't really care what Orioles DH Luke Scott had to say about him. But he did not care much for how Scott did so, invoking biblical proverbs. To each his own interpretation; that's what the Bible is. I'm a Christian, too; a Catholic Christian.

By Marc Topkin, Times Staff Writer Friday, September 3, 2010 BALTIMORE — Manager Joe Maddon obviously doesn't want to be a .500 manager. But given the way his career with the Rays began, 197 losses over two seasons, it marked a significant accomplishment when he got back to .500, at 391-391, with Friday's 4-1 win over the Orioles. The last time he was at .500 was 16 games into his first season ...

Manager Joe Maddon entered this season saying the Rays, at the very least, needed to be a .500 road team if they wanted to return to the playoffs. He challenged his team, which went 32-49 on the road last season, to elevate its game mentally away from Tropicana Field.
By Marc Topkin, Times Staff Writer Saturday, September 4, 2010 BALTIMORE — The Rays offered some perspective Saturday. From the mound, where James Shields thought his rough outing in the 8-4 loss to the Orioles was more about bad luck than bad pitches. And from the clubhouse, where they insisted there was no concern, or consternation, about dropping further behind the do-they-ever-lose Yankees ...
