Rays over Tigers- Did you see it? I saw it in real time and fine it difficult to believe. Last night with the lead late in the game with the bases loaded center fielder Kevin Kiermaier miss-played a line drive that handed the Tigers three runs and a 7-5 lead. This was undone in the bottom of the ninth when Detroit shortstop Jose Iglesias tripped over the second base bag while fielding an inning ending double-play throwing the ball away so that the Rays could score the winning runs. So much for the quality of play in today's MLB. Tampa's Erasmo Ramirez had 63 relief appearances last season but will get the start today and it is noteworthy to mention that he was 11-5 as a starter in 2015. Rays have the 'mojo' right now as they go for the 3-game sweep. Take TAMPA BAY!
