Underdog Victory: Yankees Triumph Over Rays and Break Spring Training Curse
New York was back at Steinbrenner Field for a four-game series against the displaced Tampa Bay Rays, who are using their AL East rival’s ballpark for their home games this season.
Ben Rice had his first big league four-hit game and drove in two runs, Oswaldo Cabrera hit a solo homer and New York rallied to beat the Rays 6-3.
“It was a great environment,” Yankees manager Aaron Boone said. “Obviously, a ton of Yankees fans. I think the Yankees and Rays have done a great job of getting this ready but I didn’t like my seat. … All of it was weird.”
