Tampa Bay pitchers allowed a season-high seven walks, and almost all of them turned into runs. Throw in some shoddy defense — especially in Miami's four-run fourth inning that included three walks from starter Taj Bradley — and it was far too much for Bradley and the Rays to overcome.

The Tampa Bay Rays have found a temporary home in the three-plus months since Hurricane Milton laid waste to Tropicana Field, but there is a lot of work to be done before the club can return to St. Petersburg in 2026. Rays starting pitcher Taj Bradley was at Tropicana Field on Monday, posting a photo from inside the park on his Instagram story. All of the debris seems to be gone, though, which should simplify the repair process that the City of St. Petersburg has approved funding for.
