You know the overall season vibes have shifted considerably when the Rays are in position to sweep the top team in a league for the 2nd straight weekend, and it’s dissapointing when they fail to do so, having to settle for merely a series win and a winning homestand.
However that’s the new standard the Rays have given to their fans as the hottest team since May 20th. Today was more of a low scoring pitchers duel (ignore that 9th for now).
You figured coming in this was going to be one of the tougher series they would face.
