Longoria went 4-for-5 with a solo homer, two RBI and a run in Friday's 6-5 loss to the Red Sox.
Perhaps feeling a bit of extra motivation following his All-Star snub, Longoria is now 7-for-13 over his last three games, and his ninth-inning homer was his first since June 20. Despite the season-long malaise the Rays offense has been mired in, the 30-year-old slugger is on pace for his best homer total since hitting 32 in 2013.
