Dukes not talking
OF Elijah Dukes is playing Wednesday for the Devil Rays but not talking. Team spokesman Chris Costello said Dukes would have no comment on the court ruling resulting in a restraining order. "It's a personal matter," Costello said. Dukes is leading off and playing center. He was in the clubhouse playing cards before batting practice as usual.
Follow the Rays through spring training and the season with Marc Topkin, Joe Smith and the Times sports staff. We invite your participation in the comments area.
Two walks and a HR that sparked our come from behind victory. Performance on the field matters alot when it comes to getting over personal issues.

THERE ACE MECHE WILL NOT PITCH IN THIS SERIES.>> THAT MEANS ALL 4 GAMES WILL INCLUDE HIGH ERA'S.>>ROYALS WILL NOT MAKE IT EASY FOR US BUT WE NEED TO TAKE 3 OF THE 4 GAMES AND CATCH THE BLUE JAYS.
