Rays 2, White Sox 9: Which way are we going with this, folks?
Kim Klement-USA TODAY SportsFirst things first: That was bad. Really bad. Reynaldo Lopez is booty, and the White Sox, though a near-.500 team at the All-Star break, had lost seven in a row, as the regression monster came in hot for their poor first-half run differential.
It felt even worse coming off those final three games in New York. The eighth-inning implosion on Tuesday followed by the double-header sweep on Thursday.
We were out of New York; we thought we were safe.
But alas, baseball doesn’t work that way.
