Baseball: Tampa Bay 4, Minnesota 2

B.J. Upton and Matt Joyce hit back-to-back homers in the first inning Saturday and the Tampa Bay Rays stayed hot with a 4-2 victory over Minnesota. Desmond Jennings led off the game with a single off Twins starter Nick Blackburn (4-8) and the next batter -- Upton -- blasted a pitch into the center-field bullpen. Next up was Joyce, who put a 2-0 pitch into the right-field stands for a 3-0 lead. David Price (15-4) became the major leagues' third 15-game winner, controlling the Twins on two runs over seven innings. The Tampa Bay ace allowed seven hits, didn't issue a walk and struck out five. Joel Peralta tossed a scoreless eighth and Fernando Rodney racked up his 35th save as the Rays clinched their three-game series with their fifth straight win and eighth in 10 overall. Brian Dozier socked a solo homer for Minnesota.
