Rays Announce 2023 Regular Season Schedule

The Tampa Bay Rays' 2023 schedule includes 46 interleague games with games against all 15 National League teams. To make the accommodation, they'll play only 13 games a piece against their American League East rivals. Here's the daily schedule, broken down by series.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — The new and very much improved 2023 Major League Baseball schedule was announced on Wednesday, with all 30 teams announcing their more-balanced 162-game slates.

The biggest difference next year is that interleague play is being expanded, and the Tampa Bay Rays will play all 15 National League teams in 2023. They'll play three-game series against everyone except state-rival Miami, and they'll play a four-game home-and-home series.

The make the adjustment, the Rays will no longer play 19 games each year against their American League East rivals. Next year, they'll play just 13 games against the New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox, Toronto Blue Jays and Baltimore Orioles.

The Rays will open the season at home on Thursday, March 30 against the Detroit Tigers. 

Here is the complete 2023 schedule. Game times will be announced at a later date.
