Rookie Bo Naylor doubled home Gabriel Arias with the go-ahead run in the seventh inning, sending the Cleveland Guardians to a 3-2 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday night.
The Guardians trailed 2-1 entering the seventh, but Andrés Giménez led off with a single, stole second and came home on Arias’ single. Naylor followed with a drive to the wall in right-center off Rays starter Tyler Glasnow .
Eli Morgan pitched the seventh and Emmanuel Clase gained his major league-high 37th save with a perfect ninth. Cleveland, which has won three in a row, trails Minnesota by five games in the AL Central. Guardians starter Cal Quantrill worked six innings in his return from the injured list, allowing two runs on two hits while striking out two. The right-hander had missed two months with inflammation in his pitching shoulder.
“I think I pitched pretty good, but I fell behind in the seventh and gave up a couple of hits,” Glasnow said. “If this is it, it’s certainly been an honor for me,” Cash said. “Our relationship isn’t going to change, but baseball will miss him.”
