Tampa Bay Rays starter Drew Smyly was in a rhythm all game. He led his team to a win over the New York Mets, 5-1. Smyly, now 5-3, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 3 hits, while striking out 5, walking 2, and allowing 1 earned run. The Rays bumped their record to 50-39 with this latest triumph.

It could have been a different outcome for Tampa Bay, had it not been for A.J. Pollock, the 30-year old center fielder . Pollock contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the fifth inning to put Tampa Bay up, 2-1.

"We'll relax tonight and enjoy this win," said Smyly.
