HISTORICAL FACTS: Rays rally in ninth to run season opening win streak to five 8b4587b7 172d 4ffe af63 7eeb02aee8eb - The Untold Story

WASHINGTON — Josh Fleming left the Rays in a hole Tuesday, his renewed confidence not leading to the improved results he expected in the first start of his latest chance in the rotation.

But he got some help from his friends. Luke Raley hit a tying home run to open the ninth, Josh Lowe delivered another to put them ahead, and Yandy Diaz added a third to provide a cushion, extending the Rays’ franchise-best season-opening winning streak to five with a 10-6 victory over the Nationals.

With the Twins’ loss, the Rays (5-0) are the only undefeated team in the majors.
