The Tampa Bay Rays dropped the second game of the series against the A’s by a score of 3-2 Wednesday night. Erik Bedard walked away with his first loss since April 24th, after putting together a 5.1 IP/1 H/3 R/1 ER/3 BB/6 K outing. In fact, the Rays pitchers gave up only one hit all night, a fourth inning solo shot off the bat of Brandon Moss, yet the offense couldn’t push across (at least) two more runs to give the Rays the lead and/or win. If ever there was one, this is a glaring example of pitchers deserving a better fate.
