• Player of the Series: Yandy Diaz

Nathan Ray Seebeck-Imagn Images Diaz has quietly regained his offensive footing In a series full of lows, one player provided the Rays with plenty of spark and that’s their veteran slugger, Yandy Diaz. During Tuesday’s game, Diaz provided the bulk of the offense against Zack Wheeler as he launched his 5th home run of the season to pull the Rays within one of the Phillies; they’d go on to l...2025
