Yesterday we did all we could to wish the Rays would not win, and dammit they did. Granted they did so in a fun fashion, and this sport needs to stay fun. It was smiles all around. Boxberger even got his 39th save. Very nice.
But seriously, you need to stop winning! The Rays are now 76-81 on the season, the Orioles are 76-80 with one less game played, and the Red Sox are 77-80 playing the Yankees this week. It's all still very close, and I'd prefer the higher draft position - thank you!
In the overall standings, the Rays have only the 12th worst record.
