The Rays appeared to be nowhere close to victory for the bulk of Wednesday’s game against the Yankees. Then one swing by rookie catcher Hunter Feduccia brought them to within maybe a few feet of a much-needed win.

Schlittler struck out Simpson, the Rays' leadoff man, looking at a 97-mph fastball on the inside corner to start a 1-2-3, 11-pitch bottom half and he made it six-up, six-down with an 11-pitch second, striking out Feduccia swinging at a 99-mph fastball to end the inning. Schlittler was at just 66 pitches through six.

Giancarlo Stanton hit a pinch-hit, two-run home run in the top of the 10th inning to lift the Yankees to a 6-4 win over the Tampa Bay Rays.
