Noteworthiness
- You can read more on tonight’s match-up here.
- Desmond Jennings is back in center — hitting first — following a few days respite extending from a groin injury.
- Per Marc Topkin, the initial lineup distributed in the press box listed Sam Fuld at short. As you can see above, that error was corrected.
- Rays skipper Joe Maddon was back at it Tuesday, brining a Latin band into the clubhouse, and hanging nine bunches of three plantains by the players lockers (specifically by Fernando Rodney and Joel Peralta’s lockers). As you may recall, plantains were the Dominican mascot of the 2013 World Baseball Classic; something Rodney brought to the Rays in May after a rough month in April.
