The real problem, from a Rays point of view with tonight’s game had nothing to do with Zach Littell.
The real problem was the offense.
Coming into this season, I looked at the Rays roster and wondered where the heck the runs would come from.
They were largely successful in their first two series by being so stingy on the defensive side of the ball that they could get away with not scoring much, but at some point you need to do better than scattering singles.
The Rays scored two runs tonight thanks to a handful of baserunners and two well-timed wild pitches.
