Winning the division just got a little harder.
This was always going to be the tough one. With the Armstrong opening for Yarbrough, things didn’t exactly line up. But here’s the thing: we got the pitching. We continued to hold the Yankee bats in check for the most part. We just couldn’t get to Montas, and the Yankee relievers held on for dear life for a 2-1 New York win in front of a sellout crowd at the Trop. The Rays are now five games back, four in the loss column.
Lineups!
A chance to sweep in front of a sellout crowd?
