(My Sportsbook) - The Devil Rays fell to the lowly Detroit Tigers 7-3 on Sunday in the finale of a three-game series at Comerica Park. Aubrey Huff and Toby Hall both homered for the Devil Rays, who had a two-game winning streak snapped and suffered their fifth loss in seven games. Huff has three homers in the last two games. He has seven of Tampa Bay's last nine homers and five homers in 32 at-bats. Jorge Sosa (1-4) absorbed the loss after seven innings of work. He gave up four runs and nine hits. Tampa Bay was looking for its first three-game winning streak, as it had taken the first two games of this series. Seth McClung will take to the hill on Tuesday for the Devil Rays, as he takes on the Twins in the opening tilt of a three-game series from Tropicana Field. He recorded his first loss of the year last time he was on the mound, pitching just 1 1/3 innings after surrendering six earned runs to the Twins last week. McClung (2-1) is making just his second career start against Minnesota and his only other previous outing against the Twins was his most recent appearance of the year.
