Freeman finished 2 for 3 with two walks and is hitting .444 with 18 RBIs during his streak. Mookie Betts had an RBI single and Freeman followed with a run-scoring double off Colin Poche as Los Angeles took a 5-4 lead in the seventh inning. Vargas added a solo shot in the eighth. Harold Ramírez hit the Rays’ major league-leading 100th homer, but Tampa Bay dropped to 25-6 at home.
