Major League Baseball has adjusted part of the Tampa Bay Rays' game schedule.

The game between the Angels and Tampa Bay, scheduled for April 7-9 at Angel Stadium, was changed to George M. Steinbrennerfield, Tampa Bay's temporary home stadium, from April 8-10.
Instead, the match between the two teams, scheduled for Aug. 5-7 at home in Tampa Bay, was changed to Aug. 4-6 at Angel Stadium.
The game between Minnesota and Tampa Bay, scheduled for May 26-28 at Target Field, was changed to one at George M. Steinbrenner Field during the same period.
Instead, the game between the two teams, which was scheduled to be home to Tampa Bay between July 4 and 6, was changed to Target Field.
Tampa Bay will play at outdoor stadium George M. Steinbrenner Field this season as the domed Tropicana Field was damaged by a hurricane.
Reflecting this situation, the Major League Baseball Secretariat explained that the change was made "to allow races to play in outdoor stadiums to play as many games as possible in an optimal environment."
Thanks to the latest change, Tampa Bay will play only eight games each in July and August. Notably, starting with an away game with the Angels on August 4, the team will play 12 consecutive away games where it will visit the Seattle Athletics San Francisco Giants.
The Angels will have a tough schedule, in which they will play 15 of the first 18 games of this season on the road. Instead, they will be rewarded with 12 consecutive home games between the end of July and early August.
Minnesota took the burden of playing 10 consecutive away games leading to Tampa Bay Seattle Athletics between late May and early June, but it was able to finish the first half of July with nine consecutive home games.
