What a play to end the Rays / Blue Jays game…
Nice play but why is he called out at second?
Edit - Didn't clock there was a guy on second during the pitch. Thought he was calling out the runner from first. Great play!
Oh just feck right off with this shit. Another season of lost arms seemingly awaits…
Rays are quite the team to watch, love how we score in bunches like today. This poor pitcher, it’s his debut & he balks home the sixth run in the top of the first.
Granted, we’ve played what constitutes the currently poor teams vis à vis the standings, but the hope from last season is starting to materialize this year.

This is one part of American sports I can never get on board with. Just looking at the A’s history, it looks like they’ve moved around a few times but been in Oakland for the last 50 years so there’s a couple of generations of fans that have now lost both their baseball team and NFL team to Las Vegas in the last couple of years. They also lost the Warriors to San Francisco recently so no pro sports clubs left there anymore. Five years ago they had the A’s, the Raiders and the Warriors. Pretty soon they’ll have none. That’s fecking wild.
Was bound to happen. I loved Oakland as a city when I was living in SF in 1998 / 99, but the Oakland Mausoleum that housed the Raiders & the A’s was decrepit years before I even got there.
Yeah I'm not sure whether to trust Max. His post-match interview seemed a little defensive, though I appreciate he's a guy who wears his heart on his sleeve.
Still haven’t a fecking clue as to who we think we are this year…
Wow, when our pitching staff feels like imploding on a bullpen day, we really implode.
Watching the Nats game and it feels weird seeing it be freezing cold weather somewhere (Minneapolis)
Not even Pablo Lopez getting lit up could heat that place today

Wow, fell asleep during the fourth inning & missed this. The Trop is notorious for hiding pop ups with the color of its ceiling, even more so during the day.
Knowing our luck with injuries, news will come down today that Wander is on the 60 day with a broken bone in his right hand!
Going 20 scoreless innings against teams like Houston ain’t gonna win us many series.
For the Vin Scully angle…
Hell yah. Vin, Kobe, Snoop, and Tupac are an integral part of my childhood and teens. Mural looks amazing and those city ordinances can go feck themselves.
No clue who Zach Eflin is, apparently was with the Phillies for a few years. He signed our biggest FA deal ever during the off-season.
When did Marucci bats become popular in the game? Seems like every other Rays player is using one.
Descalfini didn't have the shits...he dominated the Astros last night
Think they became popular because they were an alternative in the composite/maple/pro bat development. Them and Victus. Marucci is well known in softball and their bats are premium and people have taken notice, including pros.
Also, this axe bat or axe type knob is becoming popular.
Where has the fecking time gone?
Makes you feel old huh!
Oh dear.
Start at 2:50 (sorry, don’t know how to cue up on YT)…

At least the Rays overcame some adversity today.
Was waiting for drivel like this to start…
Absolutely melting the feck down right now.
Judgement day has cometh
We teed him up some beauties to take yard.
Now the fecking grounds crew are dancing to ‘YMCA’ while dragging the infield.
And we potentially lost Rasmussen for the year.
Another high scoring affair today ends with a split between the Yankees & us. Fair series result.
?
Not as explosive as the Big Unit’s though…
