Liam only threw 9 pitches in the 10 th. You need to bring him back. We need to lock down this win.

Yes, hitting it to third was not a good location but it worked out. Now I would leave Hendriks in to lock in this win. And bail TLR out of one of his worst managed games of the year.

Was a fly all but too short.

Now we need Robert to move the runner over.

You mean bottom of the 11 th?

Hope so. We have been terrible moving runners over.

He walks Cruz in the 8 th and pitches to him in the 10th. Liam bailed TLR out.

Why not walkCruz now. Put the force at play at second.

Hendriks is in.we should have a chance. We didn’t have a chance in the 10 th with Goodwin, Hernández, and XCollins coming up. Should have bunted with Goodwin. Rays move the runner to third but we can’t.Wow.

Between Vaughn and Goodwin we are getting no production. Goodwin with 4 Strike outs. Might as well had him bunt. We may have had a run with Cesar fly to CF if bunt successful. Vaughn being thrown out at theplate earlier in the game has come back to haunt us.

Almost hit a homer.

Is Billy available?

Choi was struck out twice and ended up walking. This ump needs to be sanctioned by MLB. Is he on the payroll of the robot manufacturers?

Crochet has thrown 5 strikes to Choi. This ump really sucks. Dreaded lead off results.

TLR let the whole team down with several bad decisions in the 8 th. He should retire.

Vaughn can’t hit with RISP and 2 outs.

Worst decision of the year by TLR. The 8 th was TLR worst managed inning of the year.Kimbrel was really pissed. TLR tried to outsmart everyone andwouldhavebeen better off doing nothing.

Austin Meadows is no slouch. Bummer should not have been in the game. Need to go with future Hallof Famer Kindrel. TLR really sucks.

TLR has been a terrible manager.Is Cruz Barry Bonds? I never seen in decades of baseball intentionally walk the bases loaded and place the lead off run in scoring position. Also take out one of the best relievers ever with 2 outs in the 8 th. Put TLR in mental IR.

Not sure. Arozarena pinch hitting was predictable and he has been hot. Bummer would need to face three also. I would have stayed with Kimbrel. Kimbrel very unhappy per MLB/Rays announcer. TLR tends to over manage in critical situations. The Rays announcers are roasting TLR big time. TLR really screwed this inning big time and possibly lose Kimbrel in the process. Can’t believe he Intentionally walk Cruz to load the bases and put the lead run in scoring position. This would get a lesser manager fired.

I would have preferred going for everyday slugging OF Joey Gallo rather than Kimbrel. We already had Kopech, Bummer and Hendriks. Kimbrel was a nice to have luxury but an everyday quality OF was a better option.

No walks in 7 innings for Gio. Kimbrel with a dreaded lead off 4 pitch walk. Not good.

Probably not. Kimbrel is warming up.

I vote for AJ also. Beckham to comment for some minor league Georgia team instead.

Yes. Gio has only 90 pitches through 7.
