Oswaldo Cabrera hit a solo homer and Ben Rice had four hits and two RBIs as the visiting New York Yankees opened a four-game series against the Tampa Bay Rays with a 6-3 win on Thursday night.

The Yankees found it “definitely a little bit odd” to occupy the visitors’ side of their spring facility on Thursday evening, as manager Aaron Boone put it, describing his team’s first experiences underneath the third-base grandstands of George M.

New York was back at Steinbrenner Field for a four-game series against the displaced Rays, who are using their AL East rival’s ballpark for their home games this season.
