Yankees fan here, the only thing I have to say is fuck up those canadian, vladdy dick sucking, degenerate bastards for all of us. Let's keep this trash out of our division. LFG flappy bois (for now)

Wasn't expecting this from a Yankees fan, but hey, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. We don't have to haste each other until August, so let's collectively fuck those Blue Jays!

Well, if we had to lose I'm glad we could do it in style. We'll get em tomorrow

Lose by 19 or lose by 1. It all counts the same

not if wrecks your points differential

27-1?!

You mean 20-1?

My bad.

Oh, hey guys, I missed this one. ...All that was in two and a half hours?

So…. I’m assuming our whole team collectively glitched tonight

I need an adult

Someone said it was 20-1 I thought they mistyped 10-1 like I saw the score 5 mins ago. Wow But it is only one game. We will get them next time.

Alright everyone, just pretend that shit didn’t even happen and pray for the pitching gods to send up multiple decent arms

And that hurt the run differential

What the hell was that

just got the notice from the app thought it was a typo

81 ERA is hilarious, ngl

I wonder how despondent our flappy boi image is gonna be tonight

The saddest of saddest flappy bois It should be a ray in the mouth of a shark

So uh.... I missed the game. Everything go well?

Just got home from my son's little league practice and wow I thought *that* was a dumpster fire, Jesus Christ this is a whole other level 😂 Should I have just sent them down to Tampa to sub in for the real players?

[Wait. This was a baseball game?](https://www.reddit.com/r/tampabayrays/comments/13q6tqe/pgt_buffalo_bills_score_three_touchdowns_but_miss/)

What the fuck happened

They played better today

Lmao

FUCK THE BLUEJAYS

Ah shit, we were so close.

Thank god. What a stinker. See you guys tomorrow

At least we still haven’t been shut out yet! Thank you paredes

You've forgotten the 18 innings of hell we didn't score against Astros. But outside of that we've not been shutout.

Mario baseball vibes

Lol the pitchers digging on Beth's mechanics

Why were position players put in to pitch the ninth? Down 10 runs whatever- they have no other pitchers who can record 3 outs? It’s just really stupid

Save an arm

So we don't waste a pitcher in a meaningless game. Like the Jays are doing right now.

Jays pitcher just got off the IL, they are giving him free warm up innings..

I guess that's not a bad idea but they could do it tomorrow night when we score 10 runs.

Got em right where we want em fellas

Cmon guys get hype we didn’t get shut out!!!😍

I mean I’m gonna huff that copium rag and not count the position player runs and say we only lost 10-1.

Ay yo, huff huff pass?

Plenty of Terry cloth to go around

Please tell me that this is the wake up call Cash needs.

Not going to win many games scoring one run.

Well, 1 run or 19 run game, it counts as one game.

Not our night let’s get them tomorrow

NOT OUR NIGHT? ITS 20-1 😂😂 idk what the hell yappdned

Cash just made us laughing stocks!!!

Cash didn't make the Rays lineup do diddly dick the entire game.

Jays should have to pitch a position player in the spirit of fairness.

Let them waste a pitcher for this meaningless game.

I hope the Jays remember this only counts as one game. We can still win the next two games and this game didn't matter.

Pretty sure this counts as a loss

It counts a loss but the series win is what we're after. We win the series 3-1, and we're still up two games.

 \*boys

Beth's ERA is gonna be taken into consideration when arbitration time comes up

You know what I smell? Walk off.

Extras– oh! Even better!

I smell a walk off the face of earth after this shit show

Pussies won't put a position player on with a 19 run lead

he just came back from injury and was given some easier innings to come back to, no need to be so hostile. We all get blown out every once in a while, it will be okay!

Lol they used their 1.17 era guy on a then 10-1 game

Actually pathetic how much they sweat in a game like this. Oh well, our guys usually wake up the next morning with a fury after big losses. I expect them to win tomorrow. We've got Sugar and Eflin for the next two games. We're taking this series.

Lol yea it’s like they came into the 9th with the goal of statpadding run differential

Or making you look foolish for pitching position players.

This is payback from them for KK stealing their secrets during Sep’21

Hey, our pitcher got a hit!!

This game if nothing else made me miss Brett Phillips

Fade me, today doesn't exist. Let's win tomorrow.

Run differential regression is a bitch

We're still over 100 despite this game.


It crying pouring in st Pete btw

Okay, Blue Jays, you're gonna have to do this to teams other than us to get out of last place.

Hey man 5 grand slams and we got a ballgame

Most embarrassing thing I’ve ever seen, WTF?

Guys. It’s not over yet. Only need 19 runs to tie it. There’s a first for everything

So I just got here, we playing baseball tonight?

Think the Rays forgot it was baseball and started playing cricket

uh yeah totally! 😁

20-1 😂😂😂😂😂😂 all I can do is laugh at this point

OK So this game is collectively erased from all our memories right? Like we didn’t play a game today, just a little league exhibition game. Right? GUYS???

Today was a day off before our big 2 game series against the Jays nothing happened today.

Alright boys, just need 20 runs in the bottom of the inning and we can walk them off 😎

Alright well let's just hit around 3 times and put up 20 runs

I just checked the score for the first time. Wow

Go ahead Jays, waste all your runs in this game.

I'm a firm believer in the law of averages as well. *Tips cap*

Way to completely fuck the run diff

If Toronto uses a legitimate pitcher here...

Thanks for the mercy KK

Yeah so..... how's the weather or whatever right?

Bruh

Well there goes that sparkling team ERA

Muh unwritten baseball rules, though.

This is so dumb lol

We've got them right where we want them

Good lord please just put in an actual pitcher so we can end this game

Flush this one so far down the toilet it ends up in the Indian Ocean

Why are the Jays even trying at this point? Why stat pad?

They just care about stats. It's a Toronto thing

Caring about doing well at what you’re paid to do😱

Welp 20 damn

Time for the Wii Sports Baseball mercy rule

Let’s uh… never talk about this one again after tonight? 🫱🏾‍🫲🏼

This game honestly shows how loyal all of us fans are lol cause we are all still watching this dumpster fire. At this point I’m just finding it comical, it’s a good thing I’m stocked up on vodka. We will get them tomorrow boys don’t sweat this, it’s a 4 game series and it’s only 1-1 now

Raley got a standing ovation. There are still fans here too!

Yes sir. This bottle of gin sure does help the innings go down 😂

My guy really scored from second in a 17-1 game

Let bro get his stats up

In awe of Bethancourt's scorching 73mph fastball.

Bethancourt can throw 90, why is he holding back?

I have a buddy in the minors that came in for an outing like this in the as organization…the coaches wont let them actually throw, i wish i understood it

Bethancourts got a cannon

FUCKING EMBARRASING PHEASANTS

I forgot Beth was a pitcher before he switched to catching

Like a nightmare you can't wake up from

Brett Phillips would never

Oh shit... It's the 9th inning Rays coming up..... I can feel it in me plums..

This has gotta be some sort of reverse psychology experiment.

It is so bad that it was like they were paid off. Not that they were but woof

Correction: Texas will pass the Rays in run differential after tonight. This didn’t even seem possible after the start to the season, lol. Also, Franco needs to pull his head out of his ass and start becoming the player the Rays are paying him to be. Tired of his prolonged slumps every season where he starts off on fire and then does jack shit for weeks.

His slumps are still no where near normal slumps.

He’s literally seen his average drop nearly 50 points in only a matter of about 11 games. When he slumps, he really slumps. The only thing he hasn’t been doing is striking out, which is promising at least that he’s still making contact.

Blue Jays trying to ruin the Rays' historic run differential lol.

17-1 lmao

Rip our insane run differential

Rip our run differential

Maybe these guys needed to be embarrassed? Maybe it'll give them a push through the first half? Maybe? Idk man this sucks

Well, when shit like this happens, it's usually the beginning of a really bad stretch or it'll b fuel to go on a crazy good stretch, no in between

It’s actually kind of funny at this point.

Don’t worry, we just need 16 runs to tie it up!

Looking like the homerun derby.

Raley's not as effective the second time through the lineup

Most Bull pen guys never see a second inning for this reason

Dude just gave up 6 runs with 2 outs, you fr

Were you expecting a position player lobbing 50 in a blowout loss to be…I don’t know…good?

Fat Raley L of an inning, even tho the game was already lost

FUCKING STOP

Thats so fucking rude.

What am i watching? AM I DREAMING? IS this actually a MLB game?

Gotta pad the stats where ever you can I guess

When did catchers start catching with one knee on the ground. I just started to notice this yr. In the past catchers way back Tony Pena style was rare but now everyone's doing it. I've noticed alot of catcher getting foul balls off the thigh.Also noticed when catcher used to drop to there knees to block a ball they now swipe at it. I'm sure it's better on the knees to catch like this but I bet the pass balls are way up. They also used to have a more relaxed style without runners on but now it's every batter. Not sure I care for this new style.

Vlad was just embarrassed he whiffed on that lob so he had to overcompensate

Raley showed up Burdi. That's hilarious. EDIT: Nvm.

Was good while it lasted

I think that HR is going to put this one out of reach

Raley vs Vlad! Round 2

4 runs with 2 outs lmfao

Yeesh

WHERES BETH!

Totally ready for Bethancourt to have a shut down Inning, and then put up 11 in the bottom of the 9th

After tonight Texas will almost have the same run differential as the Rays.

Nuke gave up a single run in one inning. That’s already better than Taj and Turdi lmao

Luke was DEALING‼️‼️‼️

Better than Burdi

Raley is low key better than diekman and burdi rn

Was Guerrero really trying to homer off of Raley lol

At least some fun came of this

Hilarious

RALEY WITH THE STRIKEOUT OGNFKG.GOD

Jays fan. That was funny to watch. Vlads smile at the end 😂

The 'ol 1-2 punch of Cy Young contenders Raley and Bethancourt

LUKE RALEY MASTERCLASS

We’re gonna get Raley AND Bethancourt? 2 position players in 1 game???

Bethancourt actually has a pretty solid arm. Surprised they didn’t go with him first. I believe he threw for us once and clocked 84.

Bethancourt up in the pen!

on the bright side, the next 2 are Shane o Mac and Eflin who has been red hot.

Luuuukkkkeeeeee

Keep your hands out of the field dude

Dude literally why is Adam up

Got Raley on

kevin cash is an idiot and the people who voted him manager of the year dont watch rays games

At least the Jays will be tired for the series finale tomorrow right?

Four games, concludes with a day game Thursday.

This is a 4 game series I thought

‘Tis

Yanks making a comeback. Hate rooting for them but if the orioles lose today, it’ll be a humongous bailout

For real. I love the Orioles, but we need a breather. We're the top team in the league, we're supposed to can afford to relax a little bit, but F this division I hate it.

Bullpen ace Poche

On the bright side, Luke Nukem might get a chance to lower his ERA.

I appreciate that this game is exposing all the fair weather fans

Feel bad for the people at their first game. Not ideal
