Opening Day at Tropicana Field isn’t off to the best of starts as firefighters had to be called in to deal with a grease fire that broke out in the 300 level of the stadium. Red Sox beat writers say sprinklers turned on and took care of the fire, which is a little shocking given water on grease isn’t advised…
Per the Rays: There was a grease fire in the 300 level that sprinklers extinguished. That caused the smoke. Team does not expect any further impact.

The fire started on the third level of the stadium. Officials said the sprinkler system was activated and the fire was extinguished. Firefighters later arrived at the scene to clear out the smoke.
No injuries were reported.
There you go. Red Sox fans can rest easy that their takeover of Tropicana Field won’t be delayed.
