At one point during this game, the Fox broadcast crew announced that the Rays are currently 2-10 for day games at home. As the staffer generally responsible for recapping Sunday afternoon day games, this stat feels very, very accurate.
That said, things went in the Rays favor today, with a slew of dads on hands to enjoy Father’s Day festivities at the park. In spite of the Angels scoring in the top of the first with a Pujols sac fly, the Rays were quick to rebound on a Brandon Lowe home run in the bottom of the same inning.
