One of my favorite songwriters, Blake Schwarzenbach, coined the lyric accept the best, expect the worst back in the 90’s. And while Blake was from Berkley — by way of Los Angeles — and though he wrote the lyric before the Devil Rays were even a team, I’m pretty sure he, in all of his prophetic wisdom, foresaw a day like Sunday, when not one or two, but three players* were nipped by the injury bug. For the three players in question — Steven Souza Jr., James Loney, and Asdrubal Cabrera — the severity of their injuries are unknown at the time of writing.
