I feel like Rays never do well on holidays. There was the Memorial Day masacre in Cleveland. There was being no-hit on Mother's Day by Dallas Braden. And now, you can add this one to the list: a heartbreaking 1-0 loss, again at the hands of Cleveland.
The Early Going
On Father's Day 2015, the Rays were in desperate need of innings from Alex Colome, and he looked sharp from the get-go, located his fastball to both sides of the plate. He breezed through the early innings, keeping Cleveland off the scoreboard and, maybe more importantly, kept his pitch count low.
