Rays Rough Up CJ Wilson, Angels 10-3

ST.PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) -- Evan Longoria hit a two-run homer, Ben Zobrist got four hits and the Tampa Bay Rays roughed up C.J. Wilson and the Los Angeles Angels 10-3 Saturday night.

Longoria put the Rays up 2-0 with his 13th homer of the season, connecting in the first off Wilson (8-7). Longoria became the first Tampa Bay player to reach 600 career RBIs.

Brandon Guyer hit a two-run single that ended Wilson's night during a four-run second that put Tampa Bay ahead 6-0.

Wilson made his first start since July 9 because of a sprained right ankle.

Chris Archer (7-6) struck out nine over six innings.

Logan Forsythe hit a solo homer and Zobrist and an RBI double during a four-run eighth.

Howie Kendrick and Hank Conger both had RBI doubles in a three-run fourth that cut the Angels' deficit to 6-3. Los Angeles had two on with one out in the eighth, but failed to score when Kendrick and David Freese struck out.

Angels slugger Josh Hamilton went 0 for 3 with three strikeouts and a walk one day after being hit on the left middle finger by a pitch.

Los Angeles reliever Joe Thatcher left in the fourth with a sprained left ankle, which occurred while fielding Guyer's bunt single.

The Rays are 5-3 on a current nine-game homestand. It's their first winning homestand since May 20-25. James Loney added three hits and has reached base in 21 consecutive games.
