Kevin Cash, the Rays manager, is banking on 36-year-old pitcher Charlie Morton's experience as they take on a much-fancied Dodgers side.
“We’re lucky to have Charlie Morton,” Cash said on MLB's official website.
“For a group that doesn’t have a wealth of experience in these roles, Charlie does. He’s been there, done that and lined up really, really well for us.
