    Another right to the fielder...

    I was really hoping for some payback that their 2nd baseman would fumble it enough to get Springer to bas but we don’t have that luck

    Damn, stranding the entire team today.

    Probably the last chance to go against Morton too so now we get into their bullpen...fun fun

    He did. Twice. Springer fouled them both.

    Don’t think they can score 4 runs off Tampa.

    Mistakes,bad luck, bad throws and catches, men LOB every inning, let's say TB has more "energy" than we do. Key big plays usually win ball games.

    Another missed opportunity to knock a starter out. Missed opportunities every inning.

    now their bullpen will mow us down. We have to score off home runs because we shrink mentally with men in scoring position

    Wondering if the Rays are feeling they're living the charmed life right now or in the back of their minds they're bracing themselves for an onslaught from the Astros? The Rays have taken more advantage of their opportunities but they have been more lucky than good so far.

    The Silver lining is that all of the games should be low scoring. If we can just catch a couple of break we can even this out. It's not like they are slaughtering us.

    The dark side is we still see Glasnow twice. So getting something special tonight would mean a lot.
