I think it's a combination of reasons.

1. The Trop is a shithole.

2. It's located in downtown St. Pete instead of Tampa where the Bucs and Lightning reside.

3. Many people who live here aren't from here. People from New York, Boston, Chicago, Ohio aren't going to dump their teams. Attendance is high whenever the Yanks or Sox come to town.

That's too bad. I like the Rays for proving that the small-market model can have success.

Are they 5-1 in their last six against playoff contending teams? We are.

w00t. Back to back singles with no outs

DaKCMan AP 08-20-2012 05:51 PM

Double play :)

Hellickson is a boss.

Dyson slides hard into 2nd. Nice job Jarrod

I like the Rays too. Gives me hope for the Royals...although Maddon is a slight increase from Yost.

stonedstooge 08-20-2012 05:53 PM

Royals tie it up on a Gordon single. 1-1

He's got a nice bender, that's for sure. Wish Smith would get his going

DaKCMan AP 08-20-2012 06:00 PM

Lead-off triple for DJ

Shogun 08-20-2012 06:00 PM

Cain just loves hitting walls.

DaKCMan AP 08-20-2012 06:02 PM

Thanks.

Go out and settle him down
