Junior Caminero recorded his first career three-homer performance and the Tampa Bay Rays carried a no-hit bid into the ninth inning of a 13-2 victory over the Kansas City Royals on Thursday afternoon in St. Petersburg, Fla.<\/p>\n

Ian Seymour (4-1) struck out seven batters and walked one over 6 2\/3 innings in relief of opener Casey Legumina, who worked the first 1 1\/3 frames. Craig Kimbrel gave up a two-run homer to Carter Jensen with one out in the ninth inning to break up the no-hit bid.<\/p>\n

Caminero homered in the first, fifth and eighth innings as the Rays pounded out 15 hits and gained a split in the four-game series with the Royals.<\/p>\n

Jonathan Aranda singled with one out in the first inning and Caminero homered to left field to stake Tampa Bay to an early 2-0 lead.<\/p>\n

The Rays added on in the fourth, as Cedric Mullins singled with two outs and Taylor Walls walked after a challenged pitch that would have ended the inning. Victor Mesa Jr. homered to right field to extend Tampa Bay\u2019s lead to 5-0.<\/p>\n

Caminero sparked another rally in the fifth when he homered to left with two outs. Richie Palacios followed with a bunt single, scoring when Chandler Simpson doubled to make it 7-0.<\/p>\n

The Rays made it 8-0 in the seventh inning after Yandy Diaz and Aranda each doubled to start the inning.<\/p>\n

Tampa Bay scored five more in the eighth, highlighted by Caminero\u2019s third home run.<\/p>\n

Mullins and Walls singled to lead off the inning and Mullins scored on a groundout to make it 9-0.<\/p>\n

Nick Fortes singled in Walls to make it 10-0.<\/p>\n

Aranda then reached on an infield single and Caminero blasted a three-run shot to left for his 19th homer of the season.<\/p>\n
