ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- David Price overcame two homers and getting hit in his protective cup by a lin1er in the fourth inning to throw hs first complete game of the season. Price allowed six hits, David DeJesus drove in three runs, and the Tampa Bay Rays beat the Minnesota Twins 7-3 on Tuesday night. "I thought his fastball was actually better towards the end of the game," Rays manager Joe Maddon said. "Im always looking at those kind of signs. Velocity was good. Strike throwing was good. Delivery was good. Everything looked like it was in order." Price (3-1) struck out 12 and walked one in his ninth career complete game. "He made it tough on us," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. "A lot of strikeouts." The Twins got homers in the fourth from Brian Dozier and Chris Colabello, the same inning Price was struck by Joe Mauers liner. "I dont know how I didnt really feel it, or it didnt break my cup," Price said. "Im extremely lucky. If that ball is two feet up, its in my face or my throat. I was very fortunate." DeJesus stopped an 0 for 24 skid with an RBI single during a three-run first and added a third-inning two-run single. Kyle Gibson (3-1) gave up seven runs and 10 hits in three-plus innings for Minnesota. The right-hander had given up just two runs over 19 1-3 innings in his three other starts this year. The game was delayed 1:47 in the fifth when the umpires used replay to review the count on Tampa Bays Yunel Escobar and still ended up with incorrect information after the review. The umpires said the count was 3-2 when in fact Escobar had taken four balls. Escobar then struck out on a 4-2 pitch. "An error was made when replay officials and supervisors mistakenly thought one of the pitches was a foul ball when it was actually a ball," MLB said in a statement. Both managers thought Escobar had drawn a walk. "I dont know. Strike five, Strike six," Gardenhire said. "I know there was a ball four somewhere in there. We all had ball four, but I was really happy with that, 3-2 is way better." Maddon joked that he thought he was seeing thing. "We just came off a day off," Maddon said. "It might have messed me up." James Loney drove in two on a single and DeJesus had an RBI hit as the Rays went up 3-0 in the first. Tampa Bay was aided when shortstop Pedro Florimon missed Matt Joyces pop fly in the roof that dropped for an infield single and two walks. DeJesus put Tampa Bay ahead 5-0 on a two-run single in the third. Joyce hit a two-double in the fourth. Price retired his first nine batters, six coming on strikeouts, before Dozier opened the fourth with his sixth homer of the season. Later in the inning Colabello made it 5-3 on a two-run shot. Colabello has 22 RBIs in 19 games this season. Price was coming off a 10-2 loss Thursday to the New York Yankees in which he gave up six runs and 10 hits in five innings. NOTES: Gardenhire on the lack of arguing with umpires this season due to expanded replay: "My face hasnt gotten red, really, one time all year, and thats not much fun." Gardenhire does feel that replay will help the game. ... Tampa Bay LHP Matt Moore had left elbow ligament replacement surgery and could be sidelined 12 to 15 months. ...

Sean Couturier, Zac Rinaldo and Michael Raffl scored to lead the Flyers to their 10th straight home victory, 3-1 over the Montreal Canadiens on Wednesday night. The surging Flyers returned home after a 5-1 trip that sent them to fourth in the Eastern Conference. Brushing off 1-7 and 4-10-1 starts to become one of the hottest teams in the NHL, they are 9-2 since Dec. 17 and have found new life under coach Craig Berube. "I think theyre confident guys right now and they believe they can win," Berube said. "Theyre not always going to play their best hockey, but were squeezing wins out." The Flyers havent lost at home since Nov. 7 against New Jersey. Theyre on their longest home winning streak since they won 11 straight Oct. 27-Dec. 5, 2003. The Flyers have won all 10 in regulation, their longest streak without OT since a 14-game regulation home winning streak from February 10-April 4, 1985. They won the last 14 home games of the regular season before making a run to the Stanley Cup finals. Steve Mason was again sensational in goal, stopping 19 shots for his 18th win. Tomas Plekanec scored for the Canadiens. For whatever reason, most notably the coaching change from Peter Laviolette to Berube, the Flyers are simply a different team over the last three months. The offence that failed to score more than two goals in a game though each of the first nine games has scored at least three in 11 of 12. Theyve thrived on the penalty kill, also. Philadelphia was 4 for 4 on the PK against Montreal, its sixth consecutive perfect game (19 of 19) in that category. "Penalty killing is about everybody on the ice being more committed than the power play, blocking shots, clearing pucks, goalies making big saves," Berube said. Rinaldo even chipped in from the foourth line.dddddddddddd Known more scrapping his way into the lineup, and taking a seat in the penalty box, Rinaldo scored on a backhander late in the first for his first goal since Nov. 7, 2013. He has six goals in 142 career games. "The boys have been really supportive of me," Rinaldo said. "You just got to put pucks on the net and thats what I did and it went in for me." He stretched the lead after Couturier tipped one in for his eighth goal of the season 6:27 into the game, just the latest two-goal lead for the Flyers. Raffl beat goalie Peter Budaj, who had 24 saves, for his third goal of the season in the second for a 3-0 lead. "It doesnt matter if were down a goal or up a goal, were sticking to the system, even though weve got enough good players to score goals to come back or to play good enough defence to bring it home," Raffl said. Flyers defenceman Andrej Meszaros had three assists. "All the defencemen are trying to jump up into the play, whoever has the chance," he said. "Thats the game now, and if you want to attack and you have the D join in, its a big advantage to score a goal." Plekanec scored a short-handed goal for Montreal in the second to cut it to 3-1. The Canadiens, though, could never seriously rally and took only five shots in the third. That made it easy enough for Mason to earn his latest win. "Weve got to find a way to get into our comfort level earlier and we just didnt find that right away," Montreal forward Brian Gionta said. Notes: Flyers F Matt Read sat out with a concussion. ... Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren was disappointed captain Claude Giroux failed to make the Olympic team for Canada. "I would say that I was a little bit surprised," Holmgren said. "I know how badly he wanted to be made to the team. Its a tough call, a lot of good players to be chosen from." ' ' '
