The Rays took the second of three games from the Chicago White Sox this afternoon by a score of 6-5. Clocking in at three hours and forty-four minutes, this game wwas, from a Rays fan perspective, both tedious and terrifying. The tedious can be explained by a game featuring seventeen (!) bases on balls (there were also two hit-by-pitches but those thankfully are quick). I love baseball, I really do, but unless bases are loaded or a key game is on the line there is nothing particularly interesting about watching a batter draw a walk – multiply that by seventeen and, well, let’s say it slows things down.
Rays 6 White Sox 5: Rays Win!
