Overview

• The Rays’ home opener against the Colorado Rockies has been rescheduled for March 28, 2025, to allow additional time to prepare Steinbrenner Field for regular-season games.
• Steinbrenner Field, the Yankees’ spring training stadium in Tampa, Florida, will serve as the Rays’ temporary home due to severe damage to Tropicana Field caused by Hurricane Milton in October.
• The 11,026-seat stadium will feature Rays-branded elements, but key Yankees branding, such as the George Steinbrenner statue and large Y-A-N-K-E-E-S signs, may remain in place.
• The Yankees will receive $15 million for the use of the facility, with the Rays allowed to sell advertising and merchandise at the venue during the regular season.
• The Rays’ postseason game locations, if applicable, will be jointly decided by the Rays, Yankees, and Major League Baseball, while discussions about Tropicana Field’s long-term future or potential relocation continue.
