    Twice, Tampa Bay manager Joe Maddon intentionally walked Miguel Cabrera with a runner on second, giving Prince Fielder a chance to break the game open with a big hit.

    The move worked both times -- and it was the Rays who finally ended a scoreless deadlock with three runs in the ninth inning.

    Matt Joyce, Evan Longoria and Desmond Jennings each drove in a run in Tampa Bay's last at-bat, and the Rays beat the Detroit Tigers 3-0 on Wednesday night.
