Rays prepare to host World Series game at restored Tropicana Field
Summary

Tropicana Field, home of the Rays, is set to host Game 3 of the World Series against the Brewers on Monday night. Following extensive repairs following Hurricane Milton, which damaged the roof and interior, the stadium has undergone a $60 million restoration. The Rays have returned to their home field after playing in a spring training facility the previous year, achieving their first American League pennant since 2008 in a non-pandemic season. The Rays are currently looking to overcome a 0–2 deficit in the series, with a heightened playoff atmosphere expected due to increased attendance as they open sections of the upper deck.
