Guardians vs Rays Game Details

  • Date: Sunday September 7th
  • Venue: Steinbrenner Field
  • TV Channel: CLEG

Spotlight Players

  • Rookie left-hander Parker Messick (1-0 2.08 ERA) will make his fourth career major league start for the Guardians. Last time out, Messick (3.2 IP) was roughed up for nine hits and three runs during a 6-4 road loss against Boston.
  • Twenty-two year old 3B Junior Caminero has been on a tear for the Rays over the last week. In his last 21 at-bats, Caminero has racked up 10 hits to go along with two home runs and nine RBIs. Caminero ranks sixth in the majors with 41 long balls.
  • Tampa Bay manager Kevin Cash will turn to thirty year old right-hander Drew Rasmussen (10-5 2.74 ERA) on Sunday. Last time out, Rasmussen served up three home runs in five innings during a 6-5 home victory versus Seattle.
  • The most obvious Cleveland player to find success against Rasmussen is seven-time All-Star Jose Ramirez. In the first two games of this series, Ramirez went 5-for-9 with a home run and three RBIs.

Supporting Cast & Depth

  • In Tampa Bay’s first meeting against Messick, veteran DH Yandy Diaz saw the ball well with a pair of hits including a double in three at-bats.
  • Cleveland leadoff hitter Steven Kwan is heating up at the plate and has collected eight hits and scored four runs over his last five games.
