Tropicana Field hosts a rematch with immediate history: Cleveland rolled Tampa Bay 7-3 here last night and arrive on a W-W-W run, while the Rays answer with an L-W-W stretch that followed back-to-back wins over the Yankees.

Head to head

The broader ledger leans home: Tampa Bay have taken 5 of the last 8 meetings, including a July sweep in St. Petersburg by 1-0, 3-0 and 11-3. Cleveland's current surge is the counterweight to that record.

Watchlist
  • Cleveland's W-W-W surge, capped by last night's 7-3 win in this building, against a Rays side fresh from back-to-back wins over the Yankees.
  • The season series — Tampa Bay won 5 of the last 8 meetings, including a three-game home sweep in July by 1-0, 3-0 and 11-3.
  • Bats to track: Jonathan Aranda (22 HR, 92 RBI) powers Tampa Bay, while Cleveland counter with Steven Kwan (.282, 84 walks) and Chase DeLauter (16 HR, 67 RBI).

On the mound watchlist, Joey Cantillo (11-9, 171 strikeouts) and Shane McClanahan (10-7) headline the arms on show.
