    Brignac grounds to second.
    DJ lines a single up the middle.
    BJ batting, DJ heads to second, throw not in time.
    BJ called out on strikes, Upton argues vehemently, Longo pushes him, Maddon getting him out of there before he gets tossed. Ball was outside.
    Longo ....... Beckett gets behind in the count so they now intentionally walk him.
    Kotch grounds to second.

    Between innings Maddon getting into the umpire's face, he must have gotten tossed during the commercial break after the called third strike on Jaso.The strike zone has been wide on these third strikes.

    Tonight’s Match-ups


    Jeff Niemann's has pitched pretty well against Boston , his only CG came against them in mid August. When he struck out 10 while giving up just 3 hits.


    Jon Lester gave up 8 hits and 4 runs in 4 innings pitched in his last start while giving up one or less in the previous 5 starts.


    Worth noting

    Both teams are trying to become the first teams in AL to reach the postseason after an 0-6 start.

    Joe Maddon’s comments about the strike zone were brutal and he feels no morning regret, standing by his statements but dispelled the idea that there is some sort of “conspiracy” against the team. The Rays post game show made his case even stronger, many of the called third strikes on the Rays were completely off the plate. I will not be surprised if there are fireworks tonight if there is anything questionable happens especially with the National spotlight.

    Unfortunately, I got called in to work tonight so I won’t be able to watch closely until I can watch the DVR later tonight.

    The Rays notched another win on a 2 run homer from Ben Zobrist, an RBI single from Longoria and the quick feet of Desmond Jennings on a WP. Jeff Niemann pitched well enough to keep it close and Matt Moore went 3 innings giving up just one run to hold off the Sox 4-3.

    Today’s Match-ups

    David Price pitched well in his last start in Baltimore though he didn’t get a decision when he allowed the them to tie the game in the 7th.

    Tim Wakefield finally reached the 200 win mark and has a good amount of success against the Rays.


    One more played game and Johnny Damon steps into another record, he will join Hank Aaron, Brooks Robinson and Pete Rose as the only players to play in at least 140 games for 16 consecutive seasons.

    Price was slammed by a line drive to the chest in the third and was removed after pitching the 4th for precautionary reasons. McGee has thrown well while the Rays threw up an 8-2 lead by the7th. Cesar Ramos let up a 3 run homer to Aviles to make it 8-5 going into the 8th.
