Boy, oh boy, if you enjoy good Rays baseball, this game was full of little treasures for you.
Right off the hop, let’s talk about Blake Snell. I’m starting to feel a bit spoiled that I’m lucking into recapping all these Snell starts, because he’s quickly becoming the most consistent and exciting pitcher in the starting rotation. Tonight he motored through the early innings like he had to get back to the dugout to put out a fire. Even as the game progressed and his command wasn’t as sharp, he still managed to keep the damage limited to two earned runs.
