The Trop and Rays' new St. Pete stadium in jeopardy

After Pinellas County Commissioners voted 6-1 to delay finalizing bonds for the new $1.3 billion stadium for the Tampa Bay Rays in St. Petersburg, the Rays' old stadium, Tropicana Field, is still unplayable until at least the start of the 2026 MLB season and their new stadium deal is in jeopardy. FOX 13 Tampa reporter Evan Axelbank joins FOX 35's Garrett Wymer to break down the Rays' stadium drama, why the Rays' decision to play 2025 home games at Steinbrenner Field in Tampa frustrated some Pinellas County Council members, and what's next for one or both of the Rays' potential stadiums.
