Rays blossoming right-hander Alex Cobb had his strikeout pitches working Saturday against Baltimore. He was nicked for three runs in seven innings, but worked his way out of jams by fanning 12.
The 26-year-old Cobb, who is established as the second starter on a pitching-rich team, gave up six hits, including a second-inning home run to Delmon Young, and walked none.
