September 10-12, 2024: at NY Yankees (3)

Game 1: 5-1 W. WP-Swanda (14-6, 6.1 7 1 1 1 8). Rays scored single runs in each inning from the 5th through the 9th to win with five different players knocking them in.

Game 2: 1-3 L
. LP-Baz (5-9, 6 4 2 2 3 7). Jacob deGrom dominated for the Yankees; he along with Cole makes them a daunting opponent in a short playoff series. Baz pitched well but homers continue to plague him as he gave up a 2-run shot to Austin Nola, the catcher's first in 320 AB this season.

Game 3: 4-0 W (11). WP-Fairbanks (2-5). Starter-Rasmussen (5 1 0 0 3 7). Rasmussen started the game by walking the bases loaded with nobody out, escaped that jam and Rays pitching held New York to only 2 hits through 11. LoCain's RBI single broke the scoreless tie in the 11th and Wander followed with a 2-run single.

Team record: 93-53. Magic number: 5. Next up: Back home for 3 vs Cleveland, which holds the first wild card.
