Good swings by everyone on Santana.

Even the outs were hit hard, minus Pena.

solid inning, let’s keep it that way

Checking in from the relatives, what have I missed?

Rays started off the first with 3 straight hits.

by websterjtc on May 11, 2008 2:10 PM EDT up reply actions  

1-2- 3 Inning from Sonny,

Aki and CC get on base, Beej RBI Single, CC and Beej SB, Longo Sac Fly, Floyd RBI single, Gross is the 3rd out,

Another 1-2-3 Inning from Sonny.

by P Brady on May 11, 2008 2:11 PM EDT up reply actions  

Sonny looks better this inning...

good AB’s in the first, put 3 up on a bunch of singles.

by davidsmarch on May 11, 2008 2:10 PM EDT reply actions  

C-Pain struck out, longo sac-fly (of the line drive variety); then big red with a sweet line drive single

by websterjtc on May 11, 2008 2:11 PM EDT reply actions  

Thanks, I'll be back in a little.

One of the most worrying things to me

is how few first pitch strikes Sonny is throwing. It’s very unlike him.

by Steve Slowinski on May 11, 2008 2:24 PM EDT reply actions  

needed that

we have a 3 run jump on one of the best pitchers in the league, need to keep this locked down…

by davidsmarch on May 11, 2008 2:25 PM EDT reply actions  

Anybody know the call sign of the Rays' radio station?

I want to listen to the game on mlb audio, but I can’t tell which acroynm is the Rays’ broadcast.

by Steve Slowinski on May 11, 2008 2:31 PM EDT reply actions  

that ball was in the dirt.

by websterjtc on May 11, 2008 2:31 PM EDT reply actions  

if gross didn’t exist, upton would have had it.

by websterjtc on May 11, 2008 2:31 PM EDT reply actions  

Sonny doesn't have it today.

It’s going to be a struggle.

Longlorious.

by RATW on May 11, 2008 2:39 PM EDT reply actions  

LONGO TIME.

Yes I will do this every AB.

by P Brady on May 11, 2008 2:41 PM EDT reply actions  

How is Sonny having that bad a day?

He gave up a walk on a close pitch, induced some grounders, and Vlad got lucky on a great pitch.

Sometimes hits fall in there and that’s what has happened.

by tallyray on May 11, 2008 2:42 PM EDT reply actions  

60 pitches in 3 innings is not typical Sonnanstine.

Yes, there have been some unlucky hits, but he usually doesn’t fall behind so many batters. Nor does he usually have two walks in 3 IP. Hopefully, he pulls it together quickly.

Longlorious.

by RATW on May 11, 2008 2:51 PM EDT up reply actions  

I think he has been getting squeezed a little

But he has also been missing high. Not typical Sonny, but he hasn’t been getting hit hard either.

Clifford the big red floyd!

by websterjtc on May 11, 2008 2:46 PM EDT reply actions  

sonny just doesn’t have it today.

by websterjtc on May 11, 2008 3:10 PM EDT reply actions  

Ervin Santana threw 40 pitches in the first inning and he’s only at 80 now.

by websterjtc on May 11, 2008 3:12 PM EDT reply actions  

Nibbling on the corners won't work today.

This ump isn’t giving anything just off the corner.

Longlorious.

by RATW on May 11, 2008 3:22 PM EDT reply actions  

Which killed Sonny.

He can’t live in the heart of the zone and the ump wasn’t giving him anything else. Not making excuses, but that’s a factor.

On Gameday

Pena just got hit in the armpit

Hey Yankees... you can take your apology and your trophy and shove 'em straight up your ass!

by Sandy Kazmir on May 11, 2008 3:44 PM EDT reply actions  

it was a purpose pitch

by websterjtc on May 11, 2008 3:47 PM EDT up reply actions  

staats said the rays are too comfy at the plate

by websterjtc on May 11, 2008 3:47 PM EDT reply actions  

He’s always been streaky.

by websterjtc on May 11, 2008 3:52 PM EDT up reply actions  

i’d let howell pitch the 9th if he has an easy inning.

by websterjtc on May 11, 2008 4:07 PM EDT reply actions  

as would I

but then again we will need him for the Yankee series. I do not envy Mad Dog.

Yes, there always has been.

Some people just overreact to 25 at-bats.

Percival has a strange pregame ritual

by websterjtc on May 11, 2008 4:22 PM EDT reply actions  

pushups and that hand job thing

by websterjtc on May 11, 2008 4:22 PM EDT up reply actions  

Probably more of a mental thing.
