Rays pitcher Alex Cobb fell just short of turning in a quality start Friday against the Twins.
Cobb gave up two runs on five hits over 5 2/3 innings. He struck out two and walked two during the outing. The only real blemish against Cobb was a third inning home run. After giving up a single earlier in the inning, Cobb allowed a two-run shot to Trevor Plouffe. He was able to pitch out of trouble the rest of the way. Cobb threw 99 pitches during the outing.
The win brings Cobb to 5-6 on the season. His next start will come against Cardinals.
