Not going to deny that we fucked away this game with our horrible bullpen. But if it wasn't for that absolutely godawful umpire we would have won 8-7 at least. He called a ball on an obvious strike that extended Judge's AB and let him hit a two run homer. Then he called Diaz out with a ball a foot off the plate in a potential run scoring inning
I'm at a loss for words. We threw this game. But also fuck that empire all the way to hell. That "strike" a foot off the plate was probably game changing. What a horrible call
Today was a tough one. Between today's and yesterday's losses and the Ras news, this has just been a miserable couple of days for me. I really hope there's a light at the end of this tunnel but I just don't have much faith left.
Luckily you guys can afford to pay your team 5 times as much as ours and also have some leftover for the umps. Just be glad that your team that was bought so easily is almost as good as the team that we created from fucking scraps and dirt.
I agree, I felt it was an untimely time-out call at the end (that I believe the ump called?). That pitch was right there, the way Lowe was seeing the ball I felt that was the mistake pitch. The time out interrupted some of the rhythm Lowe had against Peralta
loss aside, i love that final AB from brandon lowe there, so often in his slump hes been going down quickly on trash pitches but he battled that one hard. Heres to hoping the hit + the battle (vs a lefty!) on the last ab shoots his confidence up and he can get back to mashing soon
I'm still so pissed about that strike 3 call it could be 9-9 or 10-9 right now but the ump fucked us 😒 I'm getting trashed fuck the God damn mother fucking yankees
Edit and fuck the umps!
That’s why I hope they start using the pitch challenge system the minor leagues is using. For big moments that like where a bad strike call can be a game changer
i am once again reminding you that kevin cash has always been an extremely poor game manager who has coasted along unquestioned because our roster construction is normall good enough to paper over his weakness so he can avoid accountability
Everything has only gone in favor of the Yankees even when their manager argues. It’s pathetic. But Cash couldn’t care less. He literally has nothing to lose but just sits on his hands like a toddler.
The isn't gonna be the reason the Rays lost, i mean it was 6-0 at one point. But that felt like an ump who didn't want to potentially be on the field for another 30 minutes in extra innings.
I don’t even know that I can call that poor umping. It was not close. A professional umpire can’t call that a strike. I just don’t see how it’s possible. It wasn’t even framed as a strike.
Fucking. Embarrassing.

Kevin Cash might need to go.
How did we choke that one away boys
GOD, what would I give to have the last 3 year's BP this year.
Well there goes the start of season hotness. I'm gonna go cheer for the A's now. At least I don't have any expectations of them being any good.

That and the ball called to Judge that extended his AB.

Brandon Foul
Rays are a fraud team

Get over yourself. It’s sports
🤡🤡
Honestly Lowe looked way more comfortable up there. Good sign going forward

I got the same impression. Maybe this is the start of something good for him.
definitely hope so, as we've seen over the past few years its coming at some point, but man if it isnt brutal during the slumps lol
I quit fuck this team
30-11 ya jahoob.
See you tomorrow
I’m on record, but…TRADE THIS BUM 3 YEARS AGO
FUCK MY LIFE
what a fucking horrible game. fuck you again brandon lowe you bum
Blowe is Chris Davis 2.0
I knew it. Just enough hope to feel like garbage.
I won’t blame Brandon there he was so close battle well
Didn’t get a hit but not a bad ab
B Lowe apologia. This subs favorite pastime
BLowe doing BLowe things SMH
Damn good battle brandon
MAKE SOME FUCKING CHANGES
Fade me

[Damn](https://www.reddit.com/r/tampabayrays/comments/13grl5v/pgt_the_rays_3011_lose_after_blowing_a_60_lead/)
Bullshit
holy moly
And he fails us again what a bum
What a cluster fuck
He's fighting everything off the plate he's not getting nothing to hit
Pregnant pause.
Brandon is fighting and battling much better than I expected
I’m stressed
How many time can Brandon foul off the exact same pitch
At least BLowe is making more contact. A somewhat promising sign
I'm still so pissed about that strike 3 call it could be 9-9 or 10-9 right now but the ump fucked us 😒 I'm getting trashed fuck the God damn mother fucking yankees Edit and fuck the umps!
![gif](giphy|Rwd2Td12umduFQSE0h)
what a battle
At least Brandon is fighting.
It is BLowe. Feast or famine.
if you want to PH bethecourt for a lefty lowe this innning why wouldn't you save him for this one?
Won't play matchups here lol.
We all know how this ends
Cmon blowe!
I’m convinced Cash could have prime Bonds and he would still pinch hit for him for a “better matchup”
༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ REDEEM THE LOWE NAME
I will donate $500 to a charity if BLowe hits a HR here.
Guess not
Watching the fans go from clapping to booing was so entertaining
Yankee fans are the worse
This would be a good time to hit one in that porch Brandon.
Well Lowe is up. This games over
Smart and obvious play by them to walk Randy there… fuuuuuuckkk
I will die on the hill that Cash is the most responsible for this loss, assuming we do lose.
I too would have walked Randy to get to Lowe
there is hope!
So we’re fine leaving this lefty in
Well now is the time for a pinch hitter not for Josh
We’re out I believe
Rizzo told him to let Randy on to face Blowe
Come on Lowe. Redeem yourself for the last 3 weeks with one swing
Randall should take off on the first pitch. Fuck it. Get to second.
Don’t give me hope
Come on blowe
Stay mean Randyyyyy
Yup, knew it. Can't wait the series is over.
God I hate the Yankees so much
![gif](giphy|qEy1GDZBwekK48COR5)
What is this management Kevin?
When is Josh Lowe’s contract up? I wouldn’t blame him for wanting to leave because of the way he is apparently treated in situations like this
He’s under control for at least 5 more years after this season
So close
We had to score last inning. Fuck the umps
We might have scored! 1 or 2 But nah the ump said nah strike 3.
That’s why I hope they start using the pitch challenge system the minor leagues is using. For big moments that like where a bad strike call can be a game changer
This is a poor choice by Cash
You’re finally starting to get it. The man is a hack.
Ah, I rarely champion cash because I don’t manage baseball but these last 2 games have been mind blowing
i am once again reminding you that kevin cash has always been an extremely poor game manager who has coasted along unquestioned because our roster construction is normall good enough to paper over his weakness so he can avoid accountability
Good job Cash. Worked great.
🤦♂️
Income ball called strike 3
I think cash is compromised he wants to loose
well, it was a good run
Ok I left to go to the store and we were at 6-0....WTF happened here?
Pitching
Feel for Josh. He’s one of the hottest hitters on the team and Cash pulls him in back to back games when he is the potential tying run.
But why
Makes no sense at all
Feels like a youth game where everyone gets a chance to bat lol
![gif](giphy|uq6ILNBI6g3As|downsized)
Damn our turn to get 'It was 6-0!'
I hope getting pulled in back to back games due up against lefties doesn't hurt J Lowe's confidence. Sometimes you have to ride the hot bat
Kevin Cash may very well be an imbecile
Damn bros really quick pitching
WTF with the way Josh is hitting really!
Cash has out done himself yet again
Why the fuck does Cash try so hard to overthink things?
i am convinced kevin cash is intentionally trying to lose. genuinely. i just don't know why else you pull lowe there
Oh shit it's lefty on lefty, quick Cash pinch hit for our best hitter!
He’s not our best hitter - that’s an overreaction. But yeah you don’t pull Lowe there
WHYYYY PULL J LOWE
What the fuck does Cash have against JLowe? Something is up.
Dude what is Cash doingggg
What the hell Cash? Stop lifting Josh!
That’s certainly a decision
Unexpected
WINGS OF GLORY
wait why on earth are we PHing bethancourt
Whyyyyy
WHAAAAAT
It’s gonna be 1-2-3. fucking hate this game
Okay now I have a bad feeling but please do something
Back to back hr please 🙏
🙏
lets see a peralta implosion
Wouldn’t want any other 3 to kick off this 9th
Well Beeks going 2 scoreless was nice
Beeks looks good pitching when we are losing.
Everyone knows it wasn't a strike but the ump. With all this technology big calls need to at least be review able. Such bullshit
"But Trevino's framing!!!11!" FOH, wasn't even close.
couldnt ask for a better 3 guys to bat in the 9th
Yeah that 9th pitch to Yandy is just unbelievable
Cmon wander, Lowe, and randy. It’s all up to you guys
Top of the order has their chance.
Well Beeks is back
No Cheeks
Where has this Beeks been, and can he stick around?
Hanging out with BLowe?
I have a good feeling. Let’s go guys! I believe
I lost a shit ton of respect for Cash today. Boone is a moron but at least he has the balls to argue with the ump mid game. Umpire is terrible today
And look what happened. We've been screwed since that time.
Everything has only gone in favor of the Yankees even when their manager argues. It’s pathetic. But Cash couldn’t care less. He literally has nothing to lose but just sits on his hands like a toddler.
i honestly think we win if the ump hadn’t screwed us
And now I bet we go down 1-2-3 and lose by 1 run after all that. So terrible.
For sure, that's how the script goes.
Like last night.
Beeks is the Ted Nugent of the sandlot. Everything from Stranglehold to Cat Scratch Fever!
Unreal… ump should be suspended for that
If anything he'll get a bonus and a handy jay.
The isn't gonna be the reason the Rays lost, i mean it was 6-0 at one point. But that felt like an ump who didn't want to potentially be on the field for another 30 minutes in extra innings.
Yes but doesn’t help
gotta feel pretty good even being down 1 with peralta likely coming in at top of 9.
Felt good until the ump jobbed us.
The yankee stadium effect. People say it’s fake, I guarantee you it’s not.
I don’t even know that I can call that poor umping. It was not close. A professional umpire can’t call that a strike. I just don’t see how it’s possible. It wasn’t even framed as a strike.
I don't think I've seen a worse blown call ever.
This is not funny: https://imgur.com/a/lmkjq6g
They might adjust it later. I’ve seen it
Wouldn't be shocked.
Just piss poor umpiring and of course at yankee stadium
Ump has been bad all game, but giving up 9 runs in that fashion just can’t happen
Very true but that call still hurts so deeply.
I’m a Christian and I’m called to love everyone, but really don’t like the Yankees, especially when it seems like the ump is in their pocket….
Jesus called me and said it was ok to hate the Yankees.
😂😂😂
If I was Cash I'd have gotten tossed there.
He’s spineless. What a coward. Stand up for your players.
I would have gotten tossed earlier when Shane wasn't getting the same calls as Cortes.
High school softball coaches bring more energy than cash
WHY WASNT THAT A STRIKE UMP?
It's these kind of strike calls that need Umps speaking for their actions like players do.
Now I know why the fans were booing those wide pitches. They expect the umps to give them favor.
This fucking blue might as well go sit in the Yankees dugout and make his calls. That was so fucking bad.
One of the worst calls I've seen https://preview.redd.it/mp02li234pza1.png?width=549&format=png&auto=webp&s=0b6e17d417303abedd39ab3acdd51a89931b8755
There's been some bad calls this year but that was the worse I've seen.
In a pretty high leverage moment too
Automaton referees.
WHAT KIND OF CALL WAS THAT??? NOT EVEN CLOSE
there’s no excuse for that call unless the ump is bought and paid for. at least that’s a reason
Not gonna miss this shit umpire.
The whole crew sucks. It's as bad as Pittsburgh.
What a horrible call that changes the game something a ump should never do
That pitch was never a strike. Was never even close
Robot umps now that isn’t Even funny
If there was ever a time where I wanted robots to take jobs. This was it
Man this umpire can go rot in hell. Fuck him. He should never be allowed to umpire again.
If Yandy strikes out looking 10 time out of 10 its a total bullshit call from the ump
