Meanwhile, manager A.J. Hinch was far less enthused about the situation.

Josh Fields (4-1) got the last two outs of the 13th for the win.

On the other side, the Rays have a record of 30-35 when they are the underdog and are -323 overall with the money line.

It’s the fifth time in six starts since the All-Star break that Karns has allowed two runs or fewer. Tim Beckham drove him in with a triple, and came home on a sacrifice fly. Astros first baseman Luis Valbuena tracked down a popup from Rays second baseman Logan Forsythe leading off the frame, but he failed to make the catch when he extended his glove into the stands and grazed the fan.
