Tampa Bay wastes a tremendous major-league debut by Wade Davis as Brandon Inge hits a ninth-inning grand slam off Russ Springer following walks issued by struggling Grant Balfour and J.P. Howell, giving Detroit a three-game sweep. Davis allowed only three hits in seven innings and struck out nine, a Rays record for a big-league debut, to outpitch former Ray Edwin Jackson. Lance Cormier threw only 17 pitches in getting four outs but was pulled with one out in the ninth as Balfour, Howell and Springer failed to record an out among them.
