Rays' Dana Eveland: Hit hard again during Tuesday victory
Dana Eveland surrendered two hits, two earned runs and a walk over 0.2 innings in Tuesday's 8-7 victory over the Mariners. He also struck out a batter.The veteran southpaw found himself thrust into the contest in the sixth inning after starter Jake Odorizzi was ejected for arguing balls and strikes. Eveland was able to strike out Seth Smith with inherited runner Leonys Martin on second to end that frame, but surrendered consecutive singles to Robinson Cano and Nelson Cruz to open the seventh, and then loaded the bases with a free pass to Kyle Seager. An Adam Lind sacrifice fly later, the 32-year-old was removed in favor of Ryan Garton, concluding his second consecutive outing with at least one earned run given up. Despite a five-game scoreless streak prior to the aforementioned pair of outings, Eveland's ERA sits at a bloated 7.56 following Tuesday, primarily due to a five-appearance stretch earlier in the season where he yielded seven earned runs over four innings.
