Coming to the game here the challenge will be on Tampa Bay to take advantage of Lopez. He has not been that good of a pitcher on the season so far and that should not be hard for the Rays to do, but at the same time the pitching from Wacha has been disappointing to say the least. Look for the Rays to be able to take advantage of shoddy pitching from Lopez to secure the win in the game. Final Score, Tampa Bay Rays win 9-6.
