ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.—Amed Rosario and René Pinto hit home runs off Blake Snell in his return to Tropicana Field, and the Tampa Bay Rays beat the San Francisco Giants 9–4 on Sunday.

Rosario hit a two-run homer during a three-run first inning and Pinto belted a three-run drive in the fourth. The light-hitting Pinto, who had two hits and nine strikeouts in his previous 13 at-bats, added a solo homer in the sixth against reliever Kai-Wei Teng.
