The latest snafu taking hold of the Tampa Bay Rays is their inability to hold onto leads as evident by Monday night’s 6-3 loss to the Baltimore Orioles and Sunday’s 6-4 loss to the Houston Astros. In both games, the Rays had leads after the first inning only to see it be washed out.
Blowing leads is coming at a very fast pace, as the Rays have blown a lead in each of their four losses and seven of their past eight losses, more so is the fact that in each game that they have scored in the first inning, they have gone onto lose those games where they are 0-4.
