WATCH Rays vs. Royals Online Live Stream, Free MLB 2015 Game 4 Coverage

Baseball's back for the official 2015 MLB season!

The Tampa Bay Rays take the field against the Kansas City Royals in Week 14 of the regular season on Thursday, July 9 at 2:10 p.m. EST at the Ewing M. Kauffman Stadium in Missouri. Read on to see where fans can watch and listen to a live stream of the Thursday afternoon ballgame online - also catch up-to-date feeds and coverage on highlight plays and scores.

Kansas City snags a rather high spot in ESPN.com's official break-down of all 30 teams (power rankings), while Tampa Bay lags a few spots behind:

Royals (5): The Royals have four All-Star starters, but reliever Wade Davis should be a lock as a reserve. In the past calendar year, he has allowed six runs in 85 2/3 innings (including the postseason), has a 0.53 ERA and a .160 batting average allowed." David Schoenfield, SweetSpot 

Kansas City currently maintains an impressive 49-33 winning record and now remains 1st in the American League Central Division. The Royals could sweep the series with a Game 4 win

Rays (14): "The Rays spent most of the week losing in terrible fashion. They were nearly no-hit or saddled with a perfect game multiple times and took a few more losses during their opponents' final at-bats. It took until late June for all the injuries to catch up to them, but this roster is in need of a talent infusion." Tommy Rancel, The Process Report 

With that, Tampa Bay holds a steady 43-44 winning record and snags the 4th spot in the American League Eastern Division.

The ballgame will be broadcasted live on local sports channels SUN and FSKC.
