The Miami Marlins and the Tampa Bay Rays will both be traveling for games Monday evening.
The Rays will be playing against the Toronto Blue Jays tonight and this is the first time the Blue Jays will be hosting Tampa this season in a three game series.
Both teams are coming off losses of 7-6 in Sunday night games, the first of which began with a fistfight between Blue Jays Jose Bautista and Rangers second baseman Rougned Odor.
