Rays Threaten

Cliff Floyd and Dioner Navarro single to start the bottom of the fourth. Men on first and second for Baldelli.

Update: Rocco beats out what looks like a double play grounder to third to put runners at first and third with one out.

Update: The saftey squeeze by Jason Barlett works, and the Rays lead 4-0. This despite the fact that the Rays are Men with Hats!

Update: Iwamura grounds out to end the fourth, but the Rays continue to average one run per inning in the game. Myers has only thrown 50 pitches, and he's yet to strike out a batter All those balls in play are leading to hits.

That Baldelli call was about as close as you could possibly get on a force call like that. So, if the tie goes to the runner, he made it. Theoretically, my opinion is that there's no such thing as a tie in that situation, but at full-speed from the ump's perspective, there was really no wrong call there.
