Rays aim for fourth straight win as series opens against the visiting Athletics<\/p>\n
After clinching a playoff spot over the weekend, the Tampa Bay Rays continue on their nine-game home stand on Tuesday night as they open up a three-game midweek series against the Athletics, in search of their first American League East Division title since 2021. The Athletics have been eliminated from postseason consideration but can impact the playoff picture as 10 of their final 12 games are against teams jockeying for playoff seeding. The Rays will start right-hander Griffin Jax (7-10, 3.99 ERA) who has allowed one earned run or less in five of his last seven starts, while the A\u2019s will counter with second-year righty Jack Perkins (3-11, 6.53 ERA) who is winless in his last three starts, and gave up six earned runs to Tampa Bay over five innings in an appearance back in mid-August.<\/p>\n
