From the MLB.com page on the Spring Breakout games.

Now in its second year, MLB Spring Breakout debuted in 2024 as a new way to showcase baseball’s best young talent during Spring Training. Sixteen games with teams from all 30 organizations will be held across the Cactus and Grapefruit Leagues from March 13-16. The Cubs and Nationals will each play two games because of the uneven number of clubs in Florida and Arizona. Nine of the 16 games will be played as part of a traditional doubleheader with a Major League Spring Training game.

Last year, slugging first baseman Xavier Isaac made his mark as he belted two homeruns and sliced a double during a game against the Minnesota Twins top prospects.

The Rays prospect team will take on the prospects from the Boston Red Sox on Thursday, March 13th at 7:05 p.m.
