Okay, so today I wanted to check out the player stats for the Yankees vs. Tampa Bay Rays game. It’s always a big deal when these two teams go head-to-head, you know?
First off, I started digging around to find some recent games between the two. I noticed there were a couple of games mentioned on July 21 and July 22 from some sports site. That’s a good starting point, I thought. Then I found another one on August 20. And a match at Yankee Stadium, dated May 31, 2021.
So, I got a pretty good idea of some recent matchups, but I needed more detailed player stats. I found some stuff about batting stats for Yankees players against the Rays for this season. It had all the usual details like games played, at-bats, runs, hits, and all that jazz.
I also stumbled upon some info about the all-time hits leaders for the Yankees. Derek Jeter is at the top with a whopping 3,465 hits, followed by Lou Gehrig with 2,721. Pretty impressive, right? On the Rays’ side, I saw that Evan Longoria has played the most games in their history.
