It was a beautiful, sunny and 70-degree day, but you’d be forgiven for thinking it was raining with all the batted balls flying through the sky.
After dropping each of the last two games by a one-run margin, it was nice to end ahead on this afternoon Mother’s Day fare.
Much of the early going for the Rays was small ball, tapping base hits and fielders choices through where they can to score one here or there, but things really came together when Taylor Walls was at the plate.
Walls has an easier time putting his power on display in Yankee Stadium, and nearly hit one out of the park but first settled for a triple.
