I, for one, am glad that this three game abomination against the Mets is kaput. The Rays gave up 29 runs over the course of the series, 15 of which coming when Tampa Bay needed just one more out. Was it the pitching? Yes. The Rays pitchers were very predictable. However, it was more than …

Hold Me Closer Tiny Dancer, Rays vs. Mets 6/14/12 (Starting lineup included)
