Right fielder Matt Joyce had 2 base hits as the Tampa Bay Rays defeated the
struggling Chicago (AL) Whitesox by a score of 5 to 1 at Tropicana
Field.
 
Jeff Niemann(2-1) gave a fine effort for Tampa Bay.  He went 6 and 1/3 innings
allowing 6 hits and 2 walks lowering his ERA to 2.57.  Overall Tampa Bay
out-hit Chicago (AL) 11 to 8.  
 
Kyle Farnsworth earned the save, his 5th. Mark Buehrle(1-6) was hit with the
loss.  He allowed 10 hits and 1 walk in 7 innings.  It was another victory
for Tampa Bay at Tropicana Field.  Now their winning streak stands at 6
games. Craig Lombardi was upset but philosophical about the loss.  'Sometimes
you run into a team that's on a roll.  This was one of those times.'
