On Thursday afternoon in the 2023 season opener, Tampa Bay rang in the new season by earning a victory in just about the most Rays way possible -- great pitching, strong defense and just enough offense. The Rays will try again Saturday afternoon when they host the Detroit Tigers in the second game of a three-game series in St. Petersburg, Fla. Each side managed just six hits, two being homers by Tampa Bay's Jose Siri and Wander Franco.
The Detroit Tigers completed a trade with the Tampa Bay Rays for the second time in three days. This time, they acquired first baseman Dillon Paulson.
With Opening Day in Detroit just around the corner, we got a look at what's new at the ballpark this season. The Tigers have already started the 2023 season on the road, but will return home on April 6 for the home opener vs. the Boston Red Sox. The Tigers held their annual “what's new” event on Friday, showing off new season features and activities. All Tuesday home games at Comerica Park will be “313 Value Games,” with $19 lower-level tickets available, in addition to $3 bottled water and fountain drinks, $1 chips and $3 hot dogs.
