Rays' closer Fairbanks sidelined with hip injury.
TL;DR Summary
Rays reliever Pete Fairbanks injured his hip while warming up in the bullpen during their win over the Dodgers. His unavailability forced Jason Adam to go two innings and pick up his first career six-out save. Joe LaSorsa, known for his viral celebration during the World Baseball Classic, was called up to help the gassed bullpen. The Rays optioned right-hander Trevor Kelley to Triple-A Durham and designated righty Chris Muller for assignment to make room on the roster for LaSorsa.
