My son made the trip to Cincy to watch the 3 game series. He's thinking about following the Bucs to Cleveland. As miserable as the recent six weeks of bad baseball was this has been a joyful surprise.

I was in Canada during the LA road trip so I don't think that's the solution.


Not for you, but my results seem to make a valid point?

Nova almost hit that one out opposite field. You know things are going good when that happens.

Nova hammers one to the wall....as soon as he touched first base he slammed on the brakes like he was getting ready to cross a six lane interstate at rush hour. now 2 for 88 since the beginning on 2017.

Is anyone up in the bullpen?



I bet you Nova is gassed after that trip around the bases. :)

A bad at-bat by Polanco so Diaz drives in the run instead.
