Charlie Morton always has been tough in day games. This year is no exception as Morton is 3-0 with a 2.08 ERA in day action. Morton is having a superb season, too, winning 11 straight decisions. He is unscored upon in 14 innings this month with a 15-to-2 strikeout-to-walk June ratio.
The Angels are going with rookie lefty Jose Suarez, who has a 4.35 ERA and will be making just his third big league start. Suarez had a 3.91 ERA in five games, including four starts, with Salt Lake in Triple A before coming up to the Angels. The Rays are 15-9 against lefty starters and have the fourth-highest batting average in the American League against southpaws.
It's tough for the visitor to play in quirky Tropicana Field. The Angels have lost in five of their last six visits. This early start is a disadvantage, too, for the West Coast team.
