Game 15 - Rays vs. Twins
By Jessica | April 17, 2008
It’s April 17th and I’m already crabby with this team! The Rays lost another close one last night (5-6)to make it three in a row. Ugh. They have so much potential and we’ve seen glimpses of it, but they haven’t really put it together. I just want to see them shine, for more than one inning.
Oh and someone please tell me why they haven’t passed a law that all sporting events must be on ESPN. I was a bad fan last night. ION was coming in terrible and the Twins dome has absolutely no atmosphere, so I caught myself switching to ESPN, and every time staying a little longer because it was so much more visually appealing. It was like the Rays were playing arena baseball. I mean this place makes the Trop look awesome.
Why is BJ Upton still stealing bases?? And isn’t Maddon aware that Mauer is a pretty good catcher?
Bartlett had a very untimely error. Funny thing though, Lugo had one just as bad against New York.
Shields pitched okay. That seems to be a theme lately with Rays pitchers. The offense doesn’t seem to be living up to its expectations. I know there were homeruns tonight and that’s great, but the heart of the Rays order should be dominant. I am waiting for them to start stringing hits together and sending pitchers to the bench. Too much to ask for?
I don’t like being negative this early in the season, but the Rays had a chance to make up some ground last night. I hope I see something positive tonight. Go Rays.
