NEW YORK — When the Rays were last at Yankee Stadium for a mid-June series, they pitched very well, didn’t hit much and lost all three games.
Monday night, they pitched very well, didn’t hit much and won the opener of a three-game series, 4-0.
Isaac Paredes knocked in David Peralta after a fourth-inning leadoff triple to give the Rays a 1-0 lead, and they carried that into the ninth, then tacked on three more. A big part in getting them there were relievers Ryan Yarbrough and Ryan Thompson getting huge outs in key situations.
