We saw the pitchers tore up the mound last night, most notably Cam Booser of the Rays, and the groundskeepers worked on Via @Buster_ESPN on X

What happened: Cam Booser was among the pitchers who tore up the mound in the previous game. The Rays' groundskeepers worked on it afterward.

Why it matters: The packed-clay apron stops short of another pitcher's landing spot, leaving the surface's condition relevant as play continues.

By the numbers: The game was scoreless at the latest update.

What to watch: Further mound work during play would show whether the repaired surface holds up.
