1. Rays relief pitcher Pete Fairbanks is having a nice season, with 10 saves in 21 games while striking out 19 batters in 19 innings with a 1.89 ERA.
Fairbanks, though, had a rough Monday night, taking in the loss in Tampa Bay’s 3–2 loss to Texas after his wild pitch brought in the winning run.
While Fairbanks was tagged with the L, he won the night thanks to what might be the greatest postgame press conference moment of the 2023 MLB season.
