The GBT – The Good, The Bad and The Telling sandwich, where The Bad is nice and lean and the The Telling is ripe. THE GOOD: Evan Longoria. Longo’s 2run home run in the 6th was a nice moment in an otherwise ugly night. But there was something else we hadn’t seen in a while: that classic Dirtbag swing. We went back and watched his warning track flyball during the 16inning game against the Red Sox. Last night’s home run clearly has more bat speed. When Longoria has his bat speed, the bat smacks the ground behind him on the followthrough. That was not there against the Sox. It was there last night. THE BAD: Missed Opportunity. The Rays scored an early run with backtoback doubles to start the game. And then threatened to score a bunch more when backtoback walks loaded the bases with no outs. But Matt Joyce struck out when just about any contact would have scored a run. And the Ben Zobrist was thrown out at home on BJ Upton’s flyball, ending the inning with no additional runs…Sam Fuld. One ay after telling you that Fuld was among the best defensive left fielders in baseball,SuperBowl NaVorro Bowman Jersey 365djerseys.com T5, and that he had saved the Rays 8 runs this season, Fuld misplayed not one, but TWO flyballs.

That runner eventually scored,cheap haloti ngata jersey. On top of that, Fuld injured the Royals shortstop with a dirty spikesup slide (). The Royals later retaliated with ball in Fuld’s back…Wade Davis,SuperBowl Patrick Willis Jersey 365djerseys.com V9. There was a lot of chatter about an improved Big Dub returning from the DL. Unfortunately, that was about all he had last night, throwing it 14 times for 11 strikes (2 swinging). THE TELLING: The Rays are 6.5 games behind the Yankees, and according to CoolStandings.com,Cheap Smith Jersey, the Rays now have a 5.8% shot at making the playoffs. The Detroit Tigers, who are only onehalf game better than the Rays, with an easier schedule, have a 50.4% shot. THE JUNKYARD DOGS WEBTOPIA… DOWN ON THE FARM…
