    Believe it or not, that wasn't even the best 1B-going-backwards catch of the night.

    And I can't help but laugh at Howard getting picked. As if he was going anywhere.

    Key for the Rays was keeping the lead while getting rid of that last-place standing in road games played.

    This was after Morgan was raving about Howard's baserunning skills for a big fella.

    Heads up play by Victorino.

    And... that's why the Red Sox dumped that guy.

    This game has had a little bit of everything.

    Nope. Not at all. But coming down the stretch here, they have have a long month of AL East-only teams they need to face so it'll be time to solidify themselves as AL East Champs or a wild card contender. That includes six face-to-face games with both the Red Sox and Yankees.

    I was laughing at Morgan's comments. The only way Howard scores from first on a ball in the gap is if the outfielders collide. And are knocked unconscious.

    Because that's the way we did it when I played for Chicago. No, wait. The Mets. Nope, sorry. Cincinnati....

    Typical pull-it-out-of-your-ass stuff by Morgan.

    Swinging away with a pitcher and the fastest guy at the team on 3rd.

    And then a 3-run bomb. Unreal.
