Rested Reed pumping it in at 96, with a solid slider...just one pitch down the middle.
Kind of like Jenks used to be, if he keeps that FB belt high they can't hit it, but down around the knees...

+10000....Tampa is making a huge run right now
I've been wondering who would make that big push in August. Getting Longoria back, you had a feeling it would be the rays.

Everybody was trying to think of a nickname for all the rookie pitchers just a month ago when I went to the 14-inning game in KC. Our veteran relievers have been unreliable since Joe Morgan opened his mouth how many seasons ago?
2008. It was ridiculous.
Frustrating loss when you factor in the gritty comeback. I have to say that's one thing I absolutely love about this team, they never give up and play out the string.

He's not getting his arms extended, which causes his bat speed to significantly diminish.
Or, more to the point, he's just not a very good hitter
