Ê Even more remarkably, Guyer has been plunked 17 times in just 256 plate apps, an average of one every 15.06 PA…in major league his- tory, only one player has finished a season (min. 200 PA) and been HBP so frequently: in 1971, MTL Ron Hunt absorbed a modern-era- record 50 HBP in 638 PA, an average of one every 12.76 PA…Hunt led the majors in HBP for seven straight seasons from 1968-74. SPEAKING OF HUMAN MAGNETS…—First-year 1B coach Rocco Baldelli and 3B coach Charlie Montoyo have both been struck by foul balls in a span of 10 games (Baldelli by Tim Beckham, Montoyo last night by Daniel Nava)…their predecessors, 1B coach George Hendrick and 3B coach Tom Foley, spent a combined 22 regular seasons at their posts with- out being hit even once. BULLPEN BUSIEST—Last night the Rays bullpen combined for 4 innings (0-H, 0-BB, 7-SO) and the only runner to reach base was on a strikeout/wild pitch…the Rays have used 4 or more relievers in 49 games this season, most in the AL and 2nd in the majors to Joe Maddon’s Cubs (56)…they’ve won 26 of those games, also an AL-high…the Rays bullpen leads the AL with 368 IP and leads the AL with 41 decisions (18-23)…rookie Steve Geltz made his AL-leading 54th appearance last night…the last rookie to lead the AL in apps was CWS Kelly Wunsch in 2000 (83). TRENDING—Beginning May 30, the Rays are 15-3 when an opponent has started a lefty, but 16-28 during that span when a righthander starts. Ê The Rays have made 16 errors in the past 17 games after making only 47 in their first 94. Ê The Rays have allowed 422 runs and scored 412 runs, both their 2nd fewest in club history after 111 games…they scored 411 runs in 1998 and allowed 419 runs in 2012…the pitching staff has achieved this despite seeing 10 of their own placed on the disabled list. RAYS SET ROOKIE HR MARK—Rays rookies have hit 39 home runs this season, most in one season in club history, surpassing Evan Longoria’s rookie season of 2008 (38)…rookies have accounted for 38 pct. of the home runs hit by the Rays this season (39 of 104) and 39 of the 154 home runs (25 pct.) hit by AL rookies this year…the Rays have used a club-record 17 rookies this season…rookie pitchers have contributed 20 of the Rays 55 victories (36 pct.) and are a combined 20-15 with 4 saves and a 3.81 ERA (347-IP, 147-ER)…Rays rookies lead the majors in IP…the club record for innings pitched by rookies is 427 (2006) and wins is 25 (2009, 2011).

Ê On Friday, OF Daniel Nava became the 49th different player to suit up for the Rays this season, 3 shy of the club mark of 52 set in 2000…Nava is the 24th player to make his Rays debut in 2015… Rays have now made 108 roster moves since Opening Day.
