Rays 8, Tigers 0

Jeremy Hellickson is making pitching in the majors look easy.

He and two other Tampa Bay pitchers combined on a four-hitter and the Rays beat the Detroit Tigers 8-0 on Tuesday night.

Hellickson (2-0), making his second major-league start and appearance after being recalled Monday night from Triple-A Durham for the second time this month, gave up three hits and struck out seven without walking a batter over seven innings.

"For a kid who has made only two starts, he knows how to pitch," Detroit's Johnny Damon said. "He's in the majors to stay."
