KANSAS CITY — Junior Caminero homered in his fifth consecutive game, a three-run shot to highlight Tampa Bay\u2019s six-run third inning, and the Rays won their sixth straight game Tuesday night, beating the host Kansas City Royals 10-4.<\/p>\n
Caminero, who has clubbed eight of his 23 home runs in the past seven games, joins Ronald Acu\u00f1a Jr. (2018), Brian McCann (2006) and Jack Clark (1978) as the only four players aged 22 or younger since 1900 to homer in five straight contests.<\/p>\n
Ryan Vilade also homered and Griffin Jax (4-5) allowed three runs and struck out five in six innings to win his third straight start for the Rays.<\/p>\n
Bobby Witt Jr. clubbed a two-run homer and an eighth-inning solo shot as part of a three-hit night for the Royals, who have lost five of their past six games.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the six earned runs surrendered by Noah Cameron (4-6) were a season high, along with nine hits and three of Kansas City\u2019s 11 walks allowed, in 3\u2154 innings.<\/p>\n
The Royals opened the scoring when Carter Jensen extended his hitting streak to 20 games by sending the first pitch in the bottom of the first into the right-center-field fountains.<\/p>\n
Tampa Bay, though, broke out in the third, when the first eight batters reached against Cameron.<\/p>\n
Nick Fortes opened by reaching second on a bunt single coupled with third baseman Nick Loftin\u2019s throwing error. Yandy Diaz then walked, and Jonathan Aranda (two hits) dropped a run-scoring single to center field.<\/p>\n
Caminero, who also singled on the night, then cleared the left-field wall with his fifth homer against the Royals this season for a 4-1 Rays lead. Vilade followed with a homer to nearly the same spot and Ben Williamson later recorded an RBI single.<\/p>\n
The Royals cut it to 6-3 in the bottom of the third inning when Isaac Collins doubled and scored on Witt\u2019s drive into the left-field seats.<\/p>\n
Williamson and Taylor Wells drew back-to-back walks in the fifth, advanced via catcher Jensen\u2019s passed ball and both scored on Fortes\u2019 single to left field.<\/p>\n
In the sixth, Kansas City\u2019s Eric Cerantola walked six batters, allowing one run on a wild pitch with the bags full and another on a bases-loaded walk to Walls.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
