Tampa Bay has lost three of five after losing to New York yesterday, 5-3. The offense is 17th in runs scored, 15th in on-base percentage, and 22nd in slugging, while the bullpen has the second-worst ERA (5.81) and WHIP in the majors. Starter Zach Eflin (4.63 ERA) has only pitched in one road game and was pounded in a 7-1 loss at the Angels (5 runs allowed, 9 hits, in 5 innings). The Rays are 8-20 on the road against teams that convert on 75%+ of their save opportunities. New York's offense is 13th in runs scored and fourth in on-base percentage, while the bullpen is fifth in ERA (2.74). Starter Nestor Cortes has allowed no runs and just two hits in eight innings at Yankee Stadium this season, so back home field. Play New York.
