Baltimore Orioles (6-4) at Tampa Bay Rays (5-5), 7:10 p.m.

(Sports Network) - Towering right-hander Daniel Cabrera meets Tampa Bay for the second time this season tonight when the Baltimore Orioles visit the Rays in game two of a three-game set at Tropicana Field.

Cabrera, who stands 6-foot-9 and weighs in at 269 pounds, was touched for six hits and six runs in four innings on April 2 against Tampa Bay, getting a no- decision in Baltimore's 9-6 victory.

He got another no-decision against Seattle on April 7, allowing five hits and four runs in six innings of a 5-4 Orioles win.

He's faced the Rays 12 times in his career and is 6-0 with a 3.63 earned run average in 72 innings, striking out 56 and allowing 56 hits.

Young right-hander Jason Hammel will look for his first career triumph against Baltimore. The 25-year-old, in his third season with the Rays, is winless in four starts against the Orioles, going 0-3 with an 8.84 ERA in 19 1/3 innings.

He's made one start in 2008, dropping a 6-1 verdict to the New York Yankees after allowing eight hits and four runs in six innings.

On Friday, Carlos Pena homered twice and drove in six runs, as the Rays doubled up the Orioles, 10-5.

B.J. Upton finished 3-for-5 with two RBI and a run scored, while Carl Crawford went 2-for-4 with three runs scored for Tampa Bay, which has won two straight.

James Shields allowed five runs -- two earned -- on seven hits over six innings and struck out four in a no-decision. Four relievers combined to allow only one hit in three innings of relief, with Al Reyes (1-1) earning the victory.

Reyes was arrested early Friday morning after a fight in which he allegedly spit blood on people and was tasered twice by a police officer.

Luke Scott doubled twice and knocked in two runs for the Orioles, who have dropped three in a row on the heels of a six-game winning streak. Jeremy Guthrie gave up two runs on eight hits over 6 1/3 innings, but came away with a no-decision after the bullpen imploded.

Jamie Walker yielded three runs on three hits and failed to retire a batter. Dennis Sarfate (2-1) allowed three runs in one inning and Greg Aquino was charged with two runs in two-thirds of an inning.

Tampa Bay and Baltimore split two games of a weather-shortened series earlier this season, but the Orioles are 37-21 against the Rays since the start of the 2005 season.
