After Hurricane Milton tore off Tropicana Field’s roof, the Tampa Bay Rays have secured Tampa’s Steinbrenner Field as their temporary home for the 2025 season. With a capacity of 11,000, it is the largest minor league ballpark in the area and the best-prepared facility to accommodate the Rays, according to a recent release.
“We deeply appreciate that the Yankees have graciously allowed us to play at Steinbrenner Field for the 2025 season,” Rays Principal Owner Stuart Sternberg said in a statement. “The hurricane damage to Tropicana Field has forced us to take some extraordinary steps, just as hurricanes Helene and Milton have forced thousands of families and businesses in our community to adapt to new circumstances as we all recover and rebuild.”
