Surging Rays top Yankees, remain tied with Red Sox (AP)
The Tampa Bay Rays are loose and raring to go, ready to work overtime -- if necessary -- to win the AL wild card. "Whatever it takes," designated hitter Johnny Damon said.

The team already had three solid outfielders in George Foster, Cesar Geronimo and Ken Griffey, so the management thought Hal MacRae was expendable. They sent MacRae to Kansas City, where he became one of the best hitters of the decade.
