They've come from behind every game this series.

Two out hits, good baserunning. Rays are the real deal this weekend.

The Angels, on the other hand.

I think we defeated ourselves

with walks, bad D, running into outs, bad managerial decisions this weekend more than Tampa beat us.

Coffee is for closers.

by vince_ on Aug 24, 2008 3:03 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

And by Tampa getting all the breaks

I mean they seem to be having a 2005-like season where every ball finds a hole and every mistake of the opponent is taken advantage of. Not saying they aren’t good, but they are getting lucky too.

Her brother, Rays fan, has been calling to give me shit. Which is odd. Not really used to hearing it from an actual Rays fan. Red Sox fans, Tigers … but Rays?

Want a reason besides the bullpen why the Sox have sucked against the Rays this year?

.036/.069/.036 as a team with 2-out/RISP. Oh and that one hit, it didn’t plate a run.
