The Tampa Bay Rays (98-63) visit the Philadelphia Phillies (87-74) on Sunday, September 27, 2026 at Citizens Bank Park. First pitch is set for 3:05 PM ET. TV: MLB.TV / Rays.TV / NBC Sports Phil.
Regular-season finale: The Rays have clinched the AL East and the AL’s No. 1 seed (ESPN). The Phillies enter one game ahead of the Arizona Diamondbacks for the NL’s final wild-card spot (No. 6 seed), and ESPN lists Arizona as owning the tiebreaker over Philadelphia. That means the Phillies clinch with a win or an Arizona loss, while Arizona needs a win plus a Philadelphia loss to pass them. Arizona plays at San Diego at 3:10 PM ET.
