It is a cliche, but...you really can’t win them all. We all knew a loss would come at some point, and heading into this series if you’d told me the Rays would win the first two games and then lose the one started by Chris Sale I’d have taken that.
But honestly I would rather have seen the team blown out — where you can say “jut one of those nights!” - then to lose a war of attrition like we saw tonight.
Oddly enough, getting on base against Sale was the least of the Rays problems.
