Game Preview

The Tampa Bay Rays, riding a wave of home run success, look to continue their impressive power hitting as they face the New York Yankees in the final game of a four-game series on Monday afternoon.

The series began with a Yankee win (6-1) on Friday, but the Rays have dominated since, outscoring New York 15-5 over the next two matches, including a 9-1 rout followed by a 6-4 victory on Sunday.

Aiming to move two games above .500 for the first time since May 19, the Rays have been on a tear, hitting 41 homers in their last 28 games to bring their season total to 95. Richie Palacios, Randy Arozarena—who has hit five homers against the Yankees this season, including two on Saturday—Jose Siri, and Jose Caballero were all instrumental in Sunday’s win, contributing home runs.

"We’re capable of performances like this," said Rays manager Kevin Cash, noting the team’s potential despite a lack of consistency. "These guys can hit a lot of homers."

Meanwhile, the Yankees have struggled since mid-June, winning only 9 of their past 29 games and giving up 51 home runs. Aaron Judge did provide a highlight with his 35th home run of the season on Sunday, a three-run blast that underscores his continued excellence. However, despite these efforts, the Yankees faltered with runners in scoring position, failing to capitalize with the bases loaded in both the first and second innings.
