    Tampa is just too good so far.

    Our best hitters go down listlessly there

    We may have to pull out Clutch City again. It feels that way to me, like we know we are the better team, but it's just not going our way. So have faith. And. Make. It. Rain.

    Aside from the errors they have NOT outplayed us so if not in this game you would think this has to flip at some point right?

    One of the most frustrating games I've ever watched

    Well, they are throwing the leather around this game and the Astros carelessness in the field has bit them in the ass. Have to give the Rays credit for that.

    Time to take the bus home. Maybe we'll have better luck if I switch venues.

    It is somewhat deflating...they are making otherworldly plays and we have botched a couple of simple throws. Please don't let this game come down to the 3 runs off the damn error when we should have been sitting in the dugout.

    Best thing that can happen to our team now is for the Rays and everyone to completely count us out having belief that the series is over. Then, once we are left for dead, the pressure will be off and we can really see what we're made of.

    well their pitchers are OWNING us with runners on so they are kinda outplaying us. But this game should be 0-0 right now. Altuve really hurt us
    with that terrible error

    Man that last inning it seemed like they just wanted to settle for getting the ball in play rather than trying to get the perfect pitch to smash.

    McCullers dealing through 5 so far. Great pitch count too. Oh the cruelty of the baseball gods in that McCullers is under 400 pitches through 5, and yet we're down 3-0 and just futile w/ the bats.
