The pitching struggled in the first two games, but they salvaged the finale with a 4–3 win.

On the pitching side, they rank 14th in ERA. Junior Caminero leads the team in home runs and RBIs; he had one hit in the Cincinnati series. The Rays will look to spread out the offense and build on the improved pitching from their last game. On the mound for Tampa Bay is Drew Rasmussen, who is 7–5 with a 2.93 ERA. He has four quality starts this season but has had some shorter outings lately.

New York is 31–21 at home and 4–6 in its last 10 games. The Yankees rank third in runs scored, seventh in batting average, second in on-base percentage, and first in slugging percentage. On the pitching side, they rank 17th in ERA. Aaron Judge leads the team in batting average, home runs, and RBIs, but he is currently on the 10-day IL.

Over the past week, the New York offense has averaged around four runs per game, and the pitching staff continues to search for consistency. On the mound for the Yankees is Cam Schlittler, who is 1–0 with a 4.35 ERA. He has made two starts this season, typically pitching five innings and allowing two to three runs.

Best Bet: Under

Lately, both teams have been putting up similar offensive numbers. The Rays struggled to score against the Reds, while the Yankees' offense was decent against the Phillies at home. New York is still adjusting to the absence of Judge in the lineup. Additionally, both starting pitchers have had some solid outings recently.
