BOSTON -- The Tampa Bay Rays will fly home Wednesday. With any luck, they will play games at Tropicana Field this weekend, too.
Rays players met Tuesday before a designated home game at Citi Field in New York and voted to travel back to the Tampa Bay area after Wednesday's game against the Yankees to check on the status of their houses and belongings in the aftermath of Hurricane Irma.
The Rays are scheduled to host a three-game series against the Boston Red Sox beginning on Friday night. Although Tropicana Field reportedly didn't sustain major damage in the hurricane, there are still widespread power outages in Pinellas County.
