Pena to face Danks

This time, Rays first baseman Carlos Pena is in the lineup. Considered probable for Friday's second game against the White Sox, Pena will, in fact, be part of the starting lineup tonight. He ended us sitting out of Friday's game two Rays win after experiencing discomfort with the eye in warm ups.

It's good for the Rays to get more pop in the lineup, but they're facing John Danks tonight. Pena hits .190 against lefties. He's 2-9 against Danks with four strikeouts.

The Rays still will go right-handed heavy against Danks.
