I was thinking about this a few days ago and I landed on Keller, too. He’s been mostly superb. In seven of his 10 starts, he gave up two runs or less and, in his three other starts, he gave up no more than four runs. He’s been one of the best pitchers in baseball this year who no one has paid attent...

What is Sheetz ? It’s a big convenience store business. They sell gasoline and all the snacks and drinks an obese country craves. The triple slider option along with a bucket of Sheetz fries is nectar of the Gods. Or the everything Shmagel with sausage, pepper jack cheese and a side of mini hash br...

I’ve decided to give this game the same amount of interest that the Pirates, including the manager and whoever makes out the line-up, are giving it. I’m done for the evening.

Ortiz’s line looks pretty bad, to be kind: six runs (all earned) on 10 hits over four innings.

Ortiz responds to his teammates cutting the Rays lead in half by giving up three more runs. And the Rays still aren’t done in the 6th.

Bucs cut the lead in half but miss a chance with the bases loaded to add more. 4-2 Rays after four.

Gonzales walks on four pitches. That has to be a first. Tellez, who also walked, is at second.

Ortiz finally retires the side. He’s thrown 50 pitches, 30 for strikes, in two and a third. Is he not watching how when other pitchers throw lots of strikes they tend to have better results?

Rays get a fourth run. I’ll be finding something more interesting to do here in a few minutes, like dust the furniture.

Rays plate a third run, who reached on a walk. It’s amazing how other teams make that happen while it’s a foreign concept to us.
