Now time to enjoy an off day.
Things could certainly have gone better for the Rays with the Tigers in town. The three-game series saw plenty of low-scoring efforts from the Rays, meanwhile the Tigers were raking up the hits.
Jack Flaherty took the mound for the Tigers, while the Rays were going with a committee, as Shawn Armstrong acted as a one-inning opener before giving way to Tyler Alexander.
In the top of the first Riley Greene singled to start...

Things have definitely been... different
The Rays are matching up against the Tigers in the trop for the first time since the opening series of 2023, and while things haven’t started great for Tampa Bay with them already facing an embarrassing 7-1 loss in game one, it may be fun to compare these two seasons up to this point since they’ve been very different to say the least.

Friends, I’m sorry. You all deserve a great recap. You deserve to read about the highs and lows, you deserve clips of highlights, and a few droll personal observations.
