Saturday, 4 a.m.
And on today's ongoing Junior News, he's at it again.
These days, what's up with Junior Caminero of the Tampa Bay Rays is a separate category of what's going on with his team. Both are soaring, by the way.
After taking a night off from his home run streak, Caminero homered again in Friday night's 3-1 victory over the Houston Astros.
Caminero hit his 10th home run in 10 games, breaking a 1-1 tie in the seventh inning. It led the Rays to their ninth straight win.
Actually, the hitting star for the Rays on this night was catcher Nick Fortes, who homerec in the sixth to give the Rays a lead and then who doubled in an insurance run in the eighth.
Nick Martinez threw 5 1/3 inings of three-hit, one run baseball. Kevin Kelly got the win with a perfect 1 2/3. Bryan Baker had his 23rd save.
Last season, Pete Fairbanks had only 27 saves for the entire year.
The Rays managed just five hits against Spencer Arrighetti. The Astros, however, had just three.
The Rays play the Astros again tonight at 7:10 at Dau=ikin Park. Drew Rasmussen (7-4) will start for the Rays against Hunter Brown (1-0).
