    Nice opposite field hitting by Fisher.

    Cora showing that FIRE that everybody likes! I smell a good ol-fashioned CF "Lets fire ____ and promote his backup" thread coming...

    Couple of big time hits in that inning. And a great hustle play by Altuve to beat out the high ground ball.

    At least Altuve is use to playing in front of crowds this small.

    Considering the short notice, neither team from there, and there has been attendance less than 10K for the Rays in some weekday games, that's not bad

    Now a couple of great defensive plays this inning.

    I'm also a big fan of keeping Giles in there. No reason to get cute, just put the nail in it.

    Who did they give those Wednesday tickets to?

    I think Hinch wants Giles to go multiple innings in the postseason, which is why we've suddenly seeing him doing it (and the team does need to win some games). Expect them to operate as much as possible with Devo, Harris, & Giles once the postseason rolls around.

    Right. I was thinking that can't be much less than average Tampa Bay attendance numbers.

    There's more football than just the NFL and the Texans. Yes, I'm happy the Texans are nearly back....but I'm ecstatic NCAAF is back

    You read my mind. Karma sure is a b**** isn't? Deny the Astros request for a swap, your main man got hurt, and now they get to stand by and watch as we made the biggest acquisition of the trade deadline.

    Shoutout to the DBacks.

    Swept Dodgers in three.


    Great avoiding the sweep. One more win, we get the Boot.

    Verlander should be good for years.

    Correa should return Sunday. Let's enter that game with a winning streak.


    Let's do this !!!
