It was pretty intense in our house last night. First Price gives up 5 runs...yes 5 runs in the first two innings. Madden doesn't take him out. Hubby and I were yelling at the TV. Bottom of the 8th and my Rays are down 7-0. At the same time Boston is up 3-2 against the Orioles. "I can't watch them self-destruct like this" so I leave the room. Top of the 9th and it's a 7-6 ball game. We're back in it. Bottom of the 9th, 2 outs, 2 strikes, and Dan Johnson, our hero from 2008, hits a glorious home-run! We're still in the hunt for the postseason. It took 12 innings, but Longoria hit a single home-run (check out the photo) and the game ended 8-7. To sweeten the deal, Boston lost in the 9th 4-3.
The Rays began their season 0-6. They began September 9 games back of the Wild Card. But the Rays have heart. October's looking like fun.
