Fay Rays

Tropical Storm Fay didn't stop the game between the Angels and the Rays tonight. Tampa Bay is up 5-1 in the fourth on the strength of two-run homers by Hinske and Floyd. Juan Rivera hit a solo shot of the Angels in the third, but grounded out with the bases loaded to end the fourth. The two home runs allowed by Garland equals his total from 2007.

Update: Oops. Upton hits a ball that might be a home run, but it hits off the wall. He's not running hard and gets tagged out at second despite an off-line throw. He might get benched again.

Is he just plain stupid?

No, but Teixeira was plenty smart on that play. He snuck in behind Upton perfectly.

On Extra Innings the Rays announcers talked about the play endlessly. At least they didn't try to cover for Upton.
