Tampa Bay Rays right fielder Josh Lowe is expected back Wednesday vs. the New York Yankees after missing three games with right oblique tightness.
The New York Yankees and Tampa Bay Rays complete a two-game series at Steinbrenner Field in Tampa on Wednesday night.
Six Yankees homered against the Rays, including multi-home-run efforts from José Caballero, Giancarlo Stanton and Cody Bellinger.
Aaron Judge, Cody Bellinger and Giancarlo Stanton hit back-to-back-to-back home runs in the first inning as the Bronx Bombers tied a franchise record.
The Yankees became the first team in big-league history to hit at least nine homers in a game twice in a single season.
Currently, the Yankees (68-57) lead the race, leaving no doubt that the Rays will heavily rely on Rasmussen to dominate on Wednesday when he faces New York right-hander Cam Schlittler (1-2, 3.94 ERA). First pitch is scheduled for 7:35 p.m. ET.
