00:00 the night.
00:01 Less than 24 hours remain until
00:04 the trading deadline and two
00:06 teams locked up in a tight
00:08 pen and brace.
00:08 We welcome you to Yankee
00:10 Stadium.
00:10 It's the Tampa Bay Rays and the
00:13 New York Yankees.
00:13 Brandon Lau now with one out one
00:16 on Lau is nine of his last 19
00:18 with three homers and seven runs
00:20 batted in.
00:20 There's a high drive out to deep
00:22 right.
00:22 Stanton takes a look and that
00:24 one's gone.
00:24 The Rays got here out scoring
00:27 six sixty six to thirty one in
00:30 the first inning.
00:31 And they've got a two nothing
00:33 first inning lead here tonight.
00:34 Here is the X Ray Jake Bowers
00:37 two for five with a couple of
00:38 runs batted in yesterday.
00:39 Another breaking ball.
00:40 Bowers was looking for that one.
00:42 Well hit out to right center
00:44 Cerey back and it's gone.
00:45 Homers in back to back games for
00:48 Jake Bowers and the X Ray gets
00:51 one of them back for New York.
00:52 Here's Wander Franco now switch
00:55 hitting shortstop flying to left
00:56 field first at bat high and deep
00:58 out to right field Stanton gives
01:00 a look and that one is long gone
01:03 13th to the year for the seventh
01:06 wonder of the world.
01:07 Here's Isak Peretti now Isak
01:11 Peretti gets a hold of one.
01:12 No surprise to the bullseye a
01:16 double and a homer all of it to
01:18 left the third long ball of the
01:20 night for Tampa and it's four to
01:22 one Ray Josh Lowe with a ball
01:24 out to center field Bader
01:26 flying around in that one flies
01:28 bombs away for the Rays tonight.
01:30 It's not quite August yet.
01:32 The Tampa Bay Rays look like a
01:34 different team than they have
01:35 the rest of this month of July.
01:36 Domingo Hermann was unable to
01:38 start because of what we were
01:40 told was an aggravated muscle
01:42 under his pitching armpit as he
01:44 comes on in for Johnny Brito in
01:46 the fifth Wander Franco grounds
01:48 to Fulfi to retire the side and
01:51 Domingo Hermann is able to maybe
01:53 reestablish some order for the
01:55 Yankees still five one Rays
01:57 Anthony is now over 30 with two
01:59 outs and runners in scoring
02:00 position this year.
02:01 It's the longest streak to start
02:03 a season since Mike Luzardo has
02:05 had an over 30 in 2013.
02:07 Wow.
02:07 Now it is driven to right field
02:10 and is off the wall a bullet off
02:13 the wall.
02:13 Raley fires it in moving to
02:15 third as judge.
02:16 You can't hit it much harder
02:18 than Rizzo just hit that one.
02:20 That's got to feel good even
02:22 though it's a base hit.
02:22 Well Yankees have first and
02:24 second one out here in the
02:25 bottom of the six.
02:25 Tampa with a five one lead here
02:28 is Stanton Stanton the hitter
02:30 and a ground ball to third
02:32 Raley's down to Lowe and Lowe
02:34 over to Diaz five four three on
02:38 the double play and that will
02:40 take care of that threat.
02:41 We go to the seventh inning by
02:44 one Reyes and they are three
02:46 outs away from an important
02:48 series opening victory in the
02:50 Bronx and the Yankees have set a
02:52 franchise futility record 30
02:55 strikeouts in their last two
02:57 games.
02:57 Yankees are down to the last
02:59 strike tonight and LeMahieu
03:01 serves a fly ball out to center
03:02 for Jose Serie and the Rays
03:04 claim game one of this important
03:08 interdivision rival.
03:09 The Yankees are down to the last
03:11 strikeout in the second half of
03:12 the game.
