 Today will be the third meeting between the Yankees and Rays on the 4th of July, with the Yankees winning the first two in 2012 and 2015. New York is 94-71-3 (.570) all-time on the 4th of July, third best among active franchises, while Tampa Bay is 8-13 (.381), second worst ahead of Colorado (10-17).

 Since 2015, the Yankees have won 20 of their 27 series against the Rays, the second-best series record by any team against a divisional opponent since then (Dodgers vs. Padres; 21-5). The Yanks have won four straight series against the Rays dating back to 2018.

 On Wednesday night, the Rays were tied with the Orioles through seven innings before allowing six runs in the ninth to lose, 9-6. The Rays are 47-0 when leading through seven innings this season, one of two unbeaten teams (Angels), but are just 3-37 when tied or trailing through seven, third worst in MLB.

 DJ LeMahieu leads the Yankees with 110 hits, 64 runs and 61 RBI this season. He is the fourth Yankee all-time with 110+ hits, 60+ runs and 60+ RBI before the All-Star break, joining Lou Gehrig in 1936, Don Mattingly in 1986 and Derek Jeter in 1999.

 Mike Brosseau hit his first career home run on Wednesday against the Orioles, his fifth career hit and third for extra bases. He is the second player in franchise history with at least five hits and three extra-base hits through four career games (also Delmon Young in 2006).

 Gleyber Torres notched his 50th RBI of the season on Wednesday against the Mets. The only other Yankees 22 or younger to tally at least 50 RBI before the break were Joe DiMaggio and Mickey Mantle, who each did so twice.

HP - Carapazza, 1B - Visconti, 2B - Wendelstedt, 3B - Nelson

One loss decided by struggles with runners in scoring position and a game-ending hit will hardly dampen an extremely successful first half for the New York Yankees.
Meanwhile, an ability to limit big hits by a potent lineup and produce a dramatic win is something the Tampa Bay Rays hope to see more of.
