The Yankees defeated the Rays 12-4 at Tropicana Field on Thursday afternoon, splitting the four-game series. A six-run third inning, highlighted by Ryan McMahon's game-tying RBI double and two home runs from Ben Rice, propelled the Yankees to victory. The win comes after a shutout loss the previous day, marking a much-needed morale boost for a team averaging 2.8 runs over its last 20 games. The Yankees continue to trail the Rays by four games in the AL East standings, and their next matchup is a critical series at Yankee Stadium in September, where they will need a sweep to avoid losing the season series.
