Johnson runs all the way home

Elliot Johnson, the surprise of the spring, creates a run for the Rays when he beats out gounder to short, hustles to third on Guzman’s single to right and scores on a sac fly by Shan Riggans.

Rays 7, Reds 2

Riggans is in the lineup for the first time since getting hit on his left hand by a pitch against the Braves on March 15.

The injury was thought to be serious at the time, but Riggans did not break a bone in the hand and should be ready for Opening Day.
