Chance Sisco is the designated hitter.

Left-hander Tommy Milone is making his first start since his opening day assignment in Boston. He’s posted a 6.75 ERA and 1.397 WHIP in eight career games against the Rays covering 38 2/3 innings.

Mike Zunino is 6-for-13 with three home runs against Milone. Kevin Kiermaier is 5-for-7 with a double and home run.

Yonny Chirinos didn’t allow an earned run over four innings in his first start, against the Braves, and he surrendered only one hit.

Núñez is 4-for-12 with a double and two home runs against Chirinos. Davis is 1-for-12 with a home run and five strikeouts.
