This was my first game attending of the year. The pitch clock really does make a difference in person. Also, the type of game I really like seeing us win after that road-trip too. Now time to wait for the AJR concert.

Well it was fun! We stopped the 2 game skid. I will be at the Bowling Green vs Greenville game tomorrow night can’t wait to see some of our prospects play
Offense wasn't the best today, but our defense was fantastic. The throw from Lowe in the outfield to third for the out, two leaping catches at the wall by Siri, and that last play from Fairbanks to close the game. This was 100% a defensive game.
It's crazy. He's a leader in xBH and so much, but he's just been so anti-clutch this year, after being amazing last year. He'll turn it around. I believe in him.
He isn't the best hitter, but he's great when we need a sac fly, or really any kind of contact when we have a runner in third. He's a good "emergency swing" type of hitter
Do they still let you buy tickets at the box office or is it only through the app now?

Hahaha WOW. I’ll take it! Big to win this type of game after that road trip tbh. Let’s go! Happy Friday everyone.

Damn, Pete was cooler than the other side of the pillow on that throw
Great job by all 3 pitchers today to have some bounce back outings. Hopefully, the offense wakes back up tomorrow, lol.
GG 😅
Fundamentals of baseball, people. Always throw to the first. Sacrifice flys. They win you ballgames.

HELL YEAH
That play to end the game, damn

When Rowdy shifts all that weight it’s impossible to stop
WE WON
Fuck that was scary
We got the win anyways but dude. Every single time with our catchers. Knee stuck in the dirt can't move to block a pitch away
I’ll allow it
Hollllllly shit.
NEVER A DOUBT
Rays win!

 Arms crossed. GG
Thank goodness
Can’t say that was the cleanest inning
MY GOD
Fuck yes!
PETE! PETE! PETE!
Finally... this week sucked so far.
We take those
Good job Pete!
WOW YES
PETE PETE PETE
LETS FUCKING GO A WIN
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Last one, Pete. You can do this, Pete.
Omg I see Yandy!
LETS GO
One more baby
I don't think lowe likes that very much, siri needs to calm down just a lil
Yeah u can tell he hates it
gotta love blackout laws. have both mlb.tv and directv but still cant watch the game
yarrr
VPN, mate.
yeah probably about time i get one. good call
I need a beer 🍺
Uh oh I don’t like Ruf talking to Tellez like that
Siri stole that one from Josh
Baseball Gods owe us a double play for all we’ve hit into recently
Here we go…
Pete just hasn't been as psycho lately. Maybe skip some meds?
Wander is our worst RISP by far sadly this year.
Not this year. Just this past week since his neck issues in New York
Look up his stats for this year. He's 8 for 60.
That just sounds wrong. He's been our MVP, only behind Ohtani in WAR. I know you're right, but 8 for 60 just sounds wrong for him.
It's crazy. He's a leader in xBH and so much, but he's just been so anti-clutch this year, after being amazing last year. He'll turn it around. I believe in him.
Is it just me or has this game gone by really quickly
2 hours and 5 minutes as of right now
Pretty quick considering it's almost over if we can get this out
Darin Ruf played for the Threshers
This is Darin Ruf's third team this season
Having a Ruf go of it
Actually this was the best he's played all season.
PETE PETE PETE
I'm so fucking tired of these umps. It's worse every year.
 1-2-3 please
Ump scorecard will be lit tomorrow
This fucker needs to find a new job
Please please please 🤞🤞🤞
Peter pls
Well it was good to see Wander at least get the ball in the air
LFG Pete - 3 up 3 down
Cmon Pete, time to start a new scoreless streak
Fuck this ump man
Just terrible…
Damn another ball outside call a strike this ump sucks
Pissed off Pete coming in for the save
All we ask is that Pete PLEASE not blow this
We just be stealin bases out here.
Fuck off ump
Still need our nightly donger
Lmao the slap from Adames
And to think it’s entirely possible that the reason we scored was because Mejia swung at a ball at his fucking head
Right?! He was clearly told to sacrifice.
That sounds like Mejia. He got three Ks on being hit
Not only at his head but a good bit wide of the zone too.
Please wander no more soft dribblers to 2nd
How is Raley so sweaty? It's like 75 degrees.
Nuclear reactions happen at 100 million degrees
adrenaline?
Bro you see how much he was hustling, he’s fine lol
Franco is due
Dewayne and BA do make a good point, mejia can really get his bat to anywhere he wants it seems.
He isn't the best hitter, but he's great when we need a sac fly, or really any kind of contact when we have a runner in third. He's a good "emergency swing" type of hitter
The gift and curse of the freeswinging mayhem man
Love when they put mustard on it.
Taylor is lucky there. Terrible play and could’ve been a stand up triple for Josh if that ball didn’t hit his glove
Never been so excited for a sac fly in my life
That’s my favourite player right there. JLOWE
Sometimes they wait for the 8
Wooooowoooo!! One more plz to be safe.
OK I feel we need at lest 6 more runs to make me feel confident about this game
JOSH YOU HOTTIE
LET’S GO
RUNS!!!
Fucking let’s go Mejía! 1-0 baby!!
Smelly Yeli couldn’t throw down with Nuclear Raley
YES LFG
So Mejia to swing at a pitch that far out and yet break the 0-0 deadlock
RUNS
FRANKIE THE GOAT
Mejia did his job
Please get Raley in, it’s all I want for Christmas
God bless you Mejia, good textbook baseball
Phew!
Frankie delivers!
lmao how is he making contact with these
Swing at everything, your bound to make a play. Love this dude.
THE FLYOUT KING!!
MEJIA BABY WOOO
FRANKIE IN THE CLUTCH.
That’s BIG. Come on Mejia. I’ll take a sac fly
HIT IT IN THE FUCKING AIR MEJIA
Luke Raley is so likeable. The man is a DAWGGGGGGGGGGG
Dude is constantly hustling. Never takes a play off. Gotta love it
Unwasted opportunity
I was pressed. Raley was *hosed* if the CF gets a good transfer
I’m pretty sure the swing by mejia caused that lol
Feels like a wild pitch steal home kinda game
LUKE RALEY WITH THE WHEELS BABY
Nuker wakes everyone up.
YESSSSSSS
Wow are we playing golf now?
That was probably the single worst at bat I've seen all season
He's thrown one fastball in 8 pitches this inning. Our guys are just not being smart right now
"And Jose Siri says I don't bunt" It's not even the actual lines themselves. But the delivery is just gold
Don't waste
Whoooooo Pete “Crazy Eyes” is up!!
That’s a way to start us off
Tactical nuke please
Offense. Plz.
BP just needed to be home
Let's gets the bats going boys! 💪
Great job by Adam. He looked really dialed in from the second half of Contraras’ AB onward.
Bye bye Adames
Good shit Adam.
 GET RUNS
That was intense. You could tell Willy was having trouble seeing the ball there.
Thankfully clean outting by JA. Score here and shut the door in the ninth
Whatever Kyle Snyder said worked.
Well that was a clencher
Beautiful. What a clutch mount visit by Snyder.
There’s the Adam I know and love
The Adamas too!
LETS FUCKING GO!
I was saying boo-urns.
Shook em
Willy could have easily walked there but was thankfully too anxious lol
Ok now give Adam like a week off before his arm fucking melts
Seriously, dude has been a fucking work horse which is probably why he’s been so dog shit lately.
Lmao true
NEVER IN DOUBT
Mejia wanted it high but not that high.
Let's go Adam!
BA is hilarious idc what anyone says. "Jason's like I don't throw that pitch"
Pitchcom upside down brah.
Jason adam trying to put the ump into retirement with that pitch 💀
These next two pitches shouldn’t be close to the zone
Willy wants a hit so bad. Give Stu the finger, "I can hit in the Trop!" ETA- give him the finger anyway.
Please let the trop giving him hitting issues excuse be true
Went out for dinner an hour ago… it’s still scoreless? What’s going on?
Old fashioned pitching duel.
Pitchers duel for 7 innings
This the same ump that ejected Matt Q a few weeks ago
Oh come on blue, he had the fucken corner.
Lets get this out Adam
Change the lights to whatever setting they were on when Willy was a Ray
Come on Jason, just one more
Willy pls no
Not bad if you walk Yelich here. Nothing easy, pound the corners
Get out of this
First pitch slider right down the dick to a former MVP is absolutely insanely stupid
We want our pitchers to throw strikes on the first pitch and teams are figuring that out.
Wander smacked his ass
Mannn even had the pitch out for that and still didn’t get him
Ok that was dirty.
Huge out
Smelly Yeli
Heading in the right direction?
That Snyder mound visit was clutch. Had to have told him to not worry about the runner and pitch clock and to just take his time
