The Tampa Bay team is one that wishes they were able to play great all year long, but also that they were able to play good against the Yankees. The Rays were so close to being able to take down the Yankees earlier this year that it was not funny, but then they failed to do so. Ever since that point the Rays have been looking up to the Yankees who have ran away with the division.

The Dodgers have almost completely locked up the NL West title and would like to start to rest some players, but that may not be possible. The Dodgers would like to help secure the home field advantage on the playoffs as the road has not been kind for the Dodgers this year. In fact, the Dodgers are coming into the game 36 games over the five hundred mark at home and that is a mark that is hard to challenge.
Ross Stripling is the starting pitcher the Dodgers are looking to put on the mound. He has posted a 4-4 record and a 3.40 ERA on the year. Stripling has posted a total of 84.2 innings pitched with 82 strikeouts, but has walked 19 batters and allowed 77 hits.

The Dodgers are a great team at home and it will show in this game. What else will help the Dodgers out is Stripling does not give up a ton of runs and when he is on his game he does amazing things. Look for that to continue in this game as the Rays are unable to really do much on the day and struggle to get hits let alone run against the Dodgers. Final Score, Los Angeles Dodgers win 5-0.
