Tampa Bay is at 26-6 so far

Tampa Bay won versus Pittsburgh 3-2 on Thursday to conclude a three-game winning streak over small-budget teams, managing to make an outstanding start. Zach Eflin pitched seven scoreless innings, while Randy Arozarena hit one of three Rays homers for the win.

Taylor Walls and Yandy Díaz also homered for Tampa Bay, which at 26-6 is off to the best start through 32 games since the 1984 World Series champion Detroit Tigers , who went 27-5 39 years ago.

The Rays have scored a major league-best 210 runs and allowed an MLB-fewest 96.
