The Rays wrapped up a four-game weekend series with the New York Yankees, and Steve Carney goes through why Tampa Bay fans should be pleased with how the series worked out despite only salvaging a split.
Steve then gets into the wild story that came out over the weekend involving former Rays outfielder Tommy Pham, and says while it’s a crazy scenario, it shows how competitive some of these guys can be in their everyday lives.
