September 29-October 1, 2028: at NY Yankees (3)

Transaction: We lost a key bullpen piece for most of October when lefty Jovani Moran had to go on the IL with chronic back soreness which will sideline him for three weeks. Lefty Andri Tavarez is called back up from Durham.

Game 1: 3-1 W. WP-Ruegger (1-1). S-Diaz (39). Starter-Orze (5 5 1 1 0 4). Nate Santana's bases-clearing double in the 8th won it for the Rays.

Game 2: 8-5 W. WP-Riley (3-0). S-Fairbanks (4). Starter-Sears (4 7 4 4 0 3). HR-Cartaya (27), Viera (7). Trailing 5-2 going into the 9th the Rays scored 6 times with Max Viera's grand slam winning it in what would have been a thrilling win had the game meant anything. Brooks Lee was 2-4 with 2 RBI.

Game 3: 10-8 W. WP-Khattak (3-5, 5.2 7 4 4 1 4). S-Doval (3). Robby Castillo drove in 3 and Ozzie Albies 2 to lead the offense as the Rays closed out the regular season with win #103 yet they have to settle for a wild card.

Final Regular Reason Record: 103-59. Next up: The AL Wild Card round where we'll host Houston.

Playoff race update: The third wild cards in each league went to Texas (AL), who tied with Minnesota but won the season series 5-1, and Chicago (NL), who beat out San Antonio by 2 games.
