Close Win Moves Devil Rays to 77-70
Orlando left fielder Ron Gant was a significant contributor in his team's 7-6 triumph over the Florida Marlins. He was 2-3 with a home run and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2 for Orlando. The Devil Rays now have a mark of 77-70.

Gant contributed when he hit a 2-run home run in the bottom of the seventh. Coming with no outs and a runner on 1st, the home run proved to be critical to helping Orlando get the win.

"It was a nice win for our side today," said Devil Rays manager Ben Tennyson. "Not perfect, but we'll take it."
