ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.—Ryan Pepiot allowed one run and three hits in six strong innings, Amed Rosario hit an RBI triple in Tampa Bay’s two-run first, and the Rays beat the Los Angeles Angels 2–1 on Thursday to gain a split of the teams’ four-game series.
Pepiot (2–2) struck out seven and walked three after having some stomach issues before the game. He was acquired in an offseason trade in which former Rays ace Tyler Glasnow went to the Los Angeles Dodgers.
