Tampa Bay has been waiting patiently on 22-year-old Luis Patino to give them some length to the rotation down the stretch, but the experiment failed miserably again on Sunday when he got rocked by the New York Yankees in a 10-4 loss.Patino gave up nine runsall very much earnedand lasted just 1 1/3 innings. He threw 70 pitchesand only got four outs. He was wild, walking four batters, and he paid dearly for every one of them. All four scored on home runs. The Yankees tagged him for three long ballsfrom Gleyber Torres in the first, and Giancarlo Stanton and Oswaldo Cabrera in the secondin his shortest start of the year since coming back from an oblique injury in mid-July.His ERA nearly doubled in one day, going from 4.34 to 8.10 on Sunday. It was his fifth start since coming off the injured list, and it was clearly his worst. He really had only only one good start this year, pitching 5 2/3 scoreless innings against Kansas City on Aug Lou Trivino Jersey. 18.The loss dropped the Rays to 78-60 on the season, and they are now 5 1/2 games behind the Yankees in the American League East Race with 24 games to go. It was the second-straight blowout loss to the Yanks, and the Rays finished 8-11 in the season series.The Rays remain in the top spot in the wild-card race, but it couldnt be any tighter. They lead the Seattle Mariners by percentage points, and the Toronto Blue Jays by a half-game. The team on the outside looking inthe Baltimore Oriolesalso lost on Sunday, so the Rays are still six games clear of them, and hold the season series tiebreaker Zack Britton Jersey.
