Rays To Play 2025 Season At Yankees\' Spring Training Field

The Tampa Bay Rays will play at Steinbrenner Field for the 2025 season after Hurricane Milton tore the roof off Tropicana Field.
Steinbrenner Field is the Tampa-based spring training home of New York Yankees.
The field seats 11,000 and serves as the home for the Yankees\' Class A affiliate Tampa Tarpons.
The Rays considered other facilities in the surrounding area, but Steinbrenner Field was the most major-league-ready option, and the Yankees and Rays struck a deal that will pay New York for use of the facility, according to sources.
Tampa Bay will use the stadium full time; the Tarpons are expected to use other fields in the area for the 2025 season.
