Two Happy Devil Rays

Well at least one looks happy in this picture. But, both are happy tonight as Rookie Devil Rays defeated the Rookie Mets 10- 5. After spotting the Mets 4 runs in the top of the first inning, the Rays bats errupted with back to back five run innings (innings 2 and 3). The Mets tacked on a run in the fourth but the game was called in the bottom of the 4th due to rain. The Rays had the bases juiced for #14 when the umpire decided to call the game (needless to say, he was not happy with that decision). Andrew turned in another good game, he continues to flash the leather by diving and knocking down a line that would have obviously gone through the Rays porous outfield to score 3 runs. Instead, the hitter was held to a single and the machine did the rest striking out the next batter leaving 3 Mets stranded to end the 4th. At the plate, Andrew was one for two. He grounded out to the second baseman in the bottom of the first and ripped a single down the third base line in the 3rd. As "Scoop" Mickey pointed out earlier this week, the Devil Rays base running is not the best; otherwise Andrew would've or should've had a double.

Next up for the Devil Rays will be the Nationals. Game time 12:00 Sat @ Field # 3 Ironbridge Park. Andrew said to let him know who's comining so he can leave some tickets for you a Will Call.
