ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Its starting to look easy for Brad Miller, and more recently for his Tampa Bay Rays teammates.Miller hit two of the Rays five home runs in a 15-1 win over the San Diego Padres on Tuesday night.Im just trying to get to the next (at-bat) and just keep my head down and try to hit as many as possible, said Miller, who has hit 10 of his career-high 24 home runs since the All-Star break.Evan Longoria had three hits and his 27th homer while tying Carl Crawford atop the Rays career list with his 1,235th game played.Nick Franklin and Corey Dickerson also homered, and the Rays won their third straight.That was fun to watch, especially to have me in the dugout while they just keep scoring and scoring and scoring, said winning pitcher Blake Snell.Franklin and catcher Luke Maile each had three hits and Maile drove in four runs for the Rays, who have scored 35 runs in three games, the most in club history over a three-game span.Millers first home run came in the fourth inning, driving in the eighth run off starter Edwin Jackson. Manager Kevin Cash said it might have been the most impressive home run weve seen at this ballpark this year.Miller added a two-run homer in the fifth.Snell (4-5) struck out eight in five innings, giving up one run, five hits and four walks. Alexei Ramirez, who had two hits for the Padres, drove in their only run with a bases-loaded walk.Jackson (3-3) gave up eight runs, nine hits and three walks in four innings.I take full responsibility, said Jackson, who had won his two preceding starts. I pretty much single-handily sucked the soul out of the team.Rays shortstop Matt Duffy left the game in the fourth inning with a sore left Achilles tendon. It was his fifth game since being activated from the disabled list with an injury to the same tendon. Duffy said the injury is not much of a concern.LONGOS LONGEVITYLongoria holds the franchise mark in a number of offensive categories including homers, RBI and extra-base hits.What hes doing is remarkable, Cash said. I dont think he could be a better face and ambassador for this organization.DECISION TIME NEARINGThe Rays plan to discuss Wednesday the next step for RHP Chase Whitley, one of two pitchers nearing a return from Tommy John surgery. Options for Whitley, who pitched six scoreless innings Tuesday night in a rehab assignment, include being reinstated from the disabled list in the coming week or continuing to build up innings in the minors.

The native of Mont-Tremblant, Que., captured a World Cup downhill event Saturday, his second this year and fifth career victory on the circuit. Yorkshire 281 (Lehmann 58, Bresnan 56, Berg 6-56) and 238 for 5 dec (Ballance 72, Lyth 56, Wheal 3-79) drew with Hampshire 222 (Brooks 5-53, Sidebottom 3-45) and 84 for 4, Brooks 3-24ScorecardThe frustrations Yorkshire must have felt, having certainly been the better of the two teams across the four days and on course for victory were it not for the weather, were most succinctly summarised by Adam Lyth as he scurried through the downpour towards the team bus, shoulders hunched and towel draped over his head. F*****g rain he growled in his thick Yorkshire accent.But it is testament to the quality of this Yorkshire team that a result even appeared to be a possibility heading into this final day. After 77 overs were lost to rain and bad light on a frustrating third day and, with heavy rain forecast by tea on the fourth, the two-time defending champions had, at best, two sessions in which to push for victory. Unlikely? Yes. Impossible? Certainly not.Ultimately the rain forecast for tea did arrive, and ultimately Yorkshire ran out of time but not before they gave Hampshire a scare. When play was halted for the final time at 3.40pm Hampshire were 84 for 4 and had the scheduled 38.2 overs been completed it felt more likely that Yorkshire would take the six wickets than they would not.On a day in which talk of the weather was never far away it feels appropriate to describe this Yorkshire team as a force of nature in their own right and their ability to conjure something out of this rain-ravaged match deserves respect. Not only did they make a game out of a match that, given the 128.2 overs lost to rain, had no right to be as competitive as it was, but they made something out a day that appeared to be petering slowly towards a draw.With Hampshire 50 for 1 midway through the afternoon session, WWill Smith the man to go, and with the ball not swinging and the pitch showing no signs of life, the slim chance of a Yorkshire victory was fading.ddddddddddddIn what seemed to be a final throw of the dice Andrew Gale turned to Jack Brooks, who took five wickets in the first innings, to spark the match into life. How much credit Gale, or indeed Brooks, can take for Tom Alsops miscued pull that ended up in the hands of square leg is questionable, but the change had worked: Yorkshire smelt blood.Fourteen balls later Jimmy Adams was gone too. Propping forward to Brooks, the edge was found and Adam Lyth pouched the catch at second slip. Now the visitors were ticking; the fielders imbued with energy, throws zipped in above the stumps, clapping and chatter echoing around the ground. The light was closing in but so too were Yorkshire. Seven wickets needed.An over of Sidebottom. Two fours, a two and a single. Eleven runs but things were happening. One ball beat the edge, another fizzed off a length. More clapping, more chatter. Then James Vince. The ball was full, with a hint of swing, Vince threw his hands at it outside off stump - this story has been told before - Tim Bresnan took the catch. Four down. Six wickets needed. Hampshire had lost three for 24, Brooks had taken 3 for 12 in a spell that felt match-winning.And then, quite suddenly, the weather intervened. An early tea was taken for bad light. And before long the rain began. At 4.38pm the match was declared a draw.Earlier in the day Yorkshire had huffed and puffed for 22 overs to add 94 to their overnight lead before declaring to set Hampshire 298. In the end it was not the runs that mattered but the time. ' ' '
