Rays 2, Mets 1: deRays beat deGrom

The Rays came into tonight’s game having already clinched a playoff berth. At this point, they are playing for three things:

  1. The division
  2. The No. 1 seed in the playoffs, and
  3. Home Field Advantage

But they would have no small task in front of them, as they would have to go through back to back National League Cy Young Award Winner Jacob deGrom. After the top of the first, it did indeed look like it would be a long night for the Rays offense, as the first three Rays hitters struck out via triple digit fastballs.
