YANDY DÍAZ SPOKE
"Everyone knows those guys can score a lot of runs and they can hit. We're going to have to score as many runs as we can. I think it's going to be a good offensive battle."
ON THE POSITIONS
Randy Arozarena's team, the Rays, placed second in the American League East Division, just behind the Baltimore Orioles. On the other hand, Corey Seager's Rangers went all out until the last day of the regular season in search of the American League West Division title, competing neck and neck with the Houston Astros.
PROBABLE PITCHER:
Tyler Alan Glasnow is the top probable pitcher to start the wild card matchup against the Rangers on the mound. Glasnow is known for his imposing stature, speed and right arm power. He has a straight line that can exceed 100 mph and combines that velocity with a repertoire of secondary pitches, including a curveball and changeup.

PROBABLE PITCHER:
Jordan Montgomery is the likely pitcher to start the wild card round for the Texas Rangers. Montgomery is known for his left-handed pitching style, which includes a mix of pitches that include a straight, curve and change of velocity. His ability to change speeds and keep hitters in check makes him an effective pitcher.
ABOUT THE STADIUM
Tropicana Field, often shortened to "The Trop," is a baseball stadium located in St. Petersburg, Florida, United States. It is known for being the home of the Tampa Bay Rays, a Major League Baseball (MLB) team that competes in the American League East Division.
Tropicana Field opened in 1990 and, at the time, was called the "Florida Suncoast Dome". It was designed to host sporting and entertainment events in the Tampa Bay region.
