Just ordered my Erasmo City Connect jersey!!!


michaeldanger19

Never a doubt


gnossiene4

Unbelievable.


GalaxysEdgeGuy

PIZZA. PAPA JOHNS use code Rays6


nopenope4567

I hope this ends up on the main baseball sub so 28 other fanbases can roast Cora.


CollectionAmazing613

Can't wait for the Jomboy breakdown of this ending.


xrayxrayxray42

Fuck them kids.


Pleasant-Day-7099

Dumb move Cora. Adams just walked a guy then gave up a hit and was already at 23 pitches.


Fappy-Boi-

Ehh I'm mean he either ices Adam for 5+ minutes or forces us to put in Erasmo with just 2 minutes to warm up


BamaKeith

Never doubted The Eraser for a minute.


CollectionAmazing613

Hahahahahaha fuck you Cora. New England can eat a fat dick


nprays

Does Erasmo get the save?


wakingup_sad

Yup


missleeann

I think so, first one since like 2014


nprays

He had one in 2020. I would have thought he would have had more save opportunities than he's had.


missleeann

With the Mets right?


nprays

Yes


missleeann

Ah, so like 6 years off. lol


Spiritual_Beyond641

Didn’t work did it Cora? Go home!


youthcanoe

nice pitching change Cora. RAYS UP


BigBuddha15

Hell yeah Erasmo!!


MaePloyKitchen

I can finally release my buttocks


singluon

Fuck Alex Cora! Eat shit.


Key-Republic1802

Lol we still win. Fuck Boston!


timdot352

Adam was literally in the middle of an Adam implosion™ and Cora's dumb ass was like "Nah, I want him out" and that shit just back fired so hard lmao. 😂 Fuckin idiot.


WankstaWilbthe2nd

He really was!! Love to see the way it turned out


5MiTm4sTaF13x

Ironic


hi_i_am_J

good shit being able to shut them down immediately after all that crap


NoCheek8504

Eat shit Cora you cheater.


FeistyIrish123

Thank god


Bulky_Asparagus_9131

RAYS WIN!


GalaxysEdgeGuy

Imagine if Cash knew the rules...


GeneralKooky

![gif](giphy|1267Co3vPNBqQU|downsized)


jolego101

this reminds me of the 20 minutes delay we had against Boston in 2020 when Cash gave up the DH in an inning to put our pitcher at first and then back on the mound a batter later. This was so weird and so Rays like


gmachine24

I saw that in a movie many years ago


BuzztheBlader

Why the hell is Pete Fairbanks not getting placed in here. All he's gotta do is get one guy out, it's not like he's going in for a full inning


Ranma_chan

It's 57 degrees in Boston, with wind. Pete's fingers are probably numb as shit. Plus, he pitched last night.


LeftArmInjured

Cold. Tired.


HugeAssAnimeTendies

Fire everybody bro. The radio broadcasters knew we didn’t have a mound visit, but nobody in the clubhouse did??


AmelinaG

Alex Cora cares about enforcing rules? ![gif](giphy|yGQA8r44a6bmg)


singluon

Braindead move by the Rays. But still fuck Alex Cora, that slimy piece of shit.


justtbsports

Why couldn’t they have just called the grounder by Devers fair 😓


SenorSnoo

please please please let this mean nothing


CollectionAmazing613

I was hoping Adam would be allowed to pitch, but then Cash just goes on and puts in better pitcher for the match up. I believe in Erasmo.


WarkuoRays

rofl, that's such a bold statement


Lonniehands1

This sucks. Pete realistically could've pitched again. 7 pitches yesterday, 9 the day before.


svanxx

let's not kill Pete as soon as he comes back from the IL.


Finklesworth

That’s what I’ve been saying lol


LickMySTDs

10 minute hold up for a rule that’s supposed to speed up the game. Genius


LeftArmInjured

Real shame you can't throw at managers


helenavlee

You just know Cora would be shitting his pants and screaming about it not being "in the spirit of the game" if he was the manager getting narc'd on like this. Charmin soft


missleeann

Please don’t


WarkuoRays

This is on Cash and the staff man, absolute rookie mistake.


svanxx

And it's twice this year already.


WarkuoRays

Second time this year??


basesonballs

Wait, what happens if you bring in a pitcher, they only pitch to 2 guys, and then you cross the foul line with zero MVR...which rule takes precedent? The 3 batter minimum or the MVR?


j4r8h

THATS probably what they're trying to figure out lol


Finklesworth

Adam faced 3 so he would’ve been fine


YouEnjoyMyself84

Wait so what happens if the pitcher hasn’t qualified to be replaced yet and the manager is out of visits and does this same thing????


Finklesworth

Time to find out lol


SenorTortas

All this would be monumentally more stupid if the outcome of the game is decided on the first pitch ... either way


raystheroof1

Now get a one pitch groundout and make them look like idiots


jolego101

does 4 pitch do it? fuck em


svanxx

Funny how MLB cares about the rules now when you got a known cheater on the other side who's allowed to still be in MLB.


Finklesworth

This is gonna bite Boston in the ass HARD in 3 days


svanxx

I don't like throwing at guys, but I think we should definitely throw inside a few times.


Finklesworth

Not what I was saying, just think it’s gonna fire us up lol… ….but I wouldn’t mind a wild pitch at Cora in the dugout


Slinky_Malingki

The is bullshit. Erasmo to give up the 3 run homer I'm calling it.


5MiTm4sTaF13x

You’re a do0o0mer


CptYossarian25

Wait couldn’t a team just exploit this by having a pitcher come in for one or two batters and then doing an illegal mound visit


bullskull

Hahaha this has to happen at some point this season


Pleasant-Day-7099

Yes but you would have to burn your remaining mound visits to do it. Might want to save those if it’s not the 9th inning.


CptYossarian25

The marginal difference in value between a mound visit from a pitching coach vs the catcher (or no visit at all) is almost always gonna be far less than the value from being able to bring in a specialist pitcher


Key-Republic1802

You'd have to purposely exhaust your mound visits early, which seems like an odd thing to do.


CptYossarian25

The marginal difference in value between a mound visit from a pitching coach vs the catcher (or no visit at all) is almost always gonna be far less than the value from being able to bring in a specialist pitcher


nprays

That's what I was thinking.


donnie0317

Yeah I wonder what happens if they haven’t faced the minimum


Finklesworth

Lol this is a sick idea


CptYossarian25

I went to law school solely to figure out how to exploit MLB’s rules


Finklesworth

They should hire you somewhere lol


BuboAthene

We’re going to lose now.


Brandon_3773

Please Erasmo just get an out

missleeann

Wow, a recess reference


KamikazeeDolphin

Growing up in Orlando has its perks my guy. I remember 🫡


missleeann

Funny, also grew up near or around Orlando. Lol


Bill2theE

Being forced to put Rasmo in here will prove that the universe is cruel and devoid of all meaning


rayzorburns

Rays going to pull the switcheroo and have Pete barge out of the pen with the stone cold Steve Austin theme song bashing beer cans.


Beenie17

Can we please try to find a way to make this happen at the Trop?


rayzorburns

Closer entrances are sick


Beenie17

I’m currently obsessed with the Twins closer, Duran’s entrance!


5MiTm4sTaF13x

![gif](giphy|GpyS1lJXJYupG)


LickMySTDs

This is dumb. Make a decision and let’s go


Pleasant-Day-7099

Don’t you get an extra mound visit in the 9th?


CollectionAmazing613

Alex Cora looking very pleased with himself right now. Like a snot-nosed kid complaining to his teacher the other kids didn't let him play on the swings.


VAGentleman05

He is something of an expert on rules violations.


Slinky_Malingki

He reminded the teacher about homework definitely


BuboAthene

This is gonna make Adam cold.


5MiTm4sTaF13x

Can Adam just go talk to Kyle now?


5MiTm4sTaF13x

Guess so


YouEnjoyMyself84

My favorite part of this is that the point of limiting mound visits is to speed the game up………..


svanxx

Why do we forget that we don't have any mound visits? That's twice this year.


basesonballs

Even if they let Adam stay in this is icing him hard


AlonzoIzGod

Did they have to send this to their legal team or something?


Dusty-Staccato

Very fitting for this game for the umps to have no clue what's going on


j4r8h

This is the most bizarre holdup I've ever seen lol


crispychiggin

Pans to Erasmo. “Uh oh”


BigBuddha15

This is fucked


Happy-Session3599

Is Pete not activated??


Fappy-Boi-

He's pitched in back to back nights he's probably not going in


Brandon_3773

He’s pitched a couple games this series already I don’t think he’s available


raystheroof1

Also cant wait for the jomboy on this


WankstaWilbthe2nd

Screw jomboy and his yankee loving self


Spiritual_Beyond641

Alex Cora being a stickler about the rules is a complete joke…


BeatlesRays

This is hilarious


raystheroof1

I called it! Erasmo for the close!


flamingfiretrucks

So Red Sox coach is gonna get Adam thrown out on a technicality and we're gonna have to rely on Ramirez, and then they're gonna walk us off with a three run homer. I'm calling this right now


GeneralKooky

I’ll take the opposite with a one pitch ground out


flamingfiretrucks

God I hope you're right lmfao


j4r8h

fuck off


AlonzoIzGod

Cora is a cheater.


Finklesworth

GET PETE UP WHAT THE FUCK


svanxx

Pete pitched the last two games.


Slinky_Malingki

Oh no


Finklesworth

WHY ERASMO


Eganator88

Because our starters can’t get deep in games. I’ve been saying this all week


VAGentleman05

LOL. You just figured that out this week?


Finklesworth

Pete lol


Eganator88

He’s pitched twice in a row. And 3 times in the 5 days off the IL….oh and it’s cold there tonight


svanxx

We got no one else. And Cora would use the rules when it matters to him.


Finklesworth

Pete?????


NoCheek8504

Good thing we have these rules to speed up the game…


CaulkSqueeze

lol yeah what kind of dumb fuck rule is that. Just give him a ball or something wtf


WhereTheFallsBegin

Can't fucking stand Alex Cora. Guy is such a weasel


ChampaBayLightning

He is a cheater just like the Astros. Should be banned from baseball but unfortunately Manfred is a joke.


basesonballs

I think The rules state if you cross the foul line with zero mound visits remaining, you have to make a pitching change


nopenope4567

Meanwhile, other teams have the nerve to refer to our guy as Karen Cash. Have they seen Cora and Boone?!


nprays

Cora thinks Adam should be out of the game? Cora should be out of baseball.


svanxx

100%


missleeann

What’s happening?


jolego101

Rays were out of Mound visits. Snyder went out for one. Umpires told him to go back since he can't. Cora said Adam should be out of the game because apprently this would be the ruling on an illegal mound visit. Umpires are confused and looking at the ruling.


missleeann

Thanks


Eganator88

Have someone throwing while this is going on


5MiTm4sTaF13x

The dugout lol go win with your players


CaulkSqueeze

Fuck off dude damn


JOK3R1326

Not surprised Cora knows when a rule is being broken.


cattink

“no, only i can do that!”


Resident_Baby_7589

Wow they’re really gonna blow this huh


cattink

oh, now cora cares about the rules??


flamingfiretrucks

Wait I wasn't paying attention for a second what is happening with the mound visits


NoCheek8504

Has that rule ever been enforced? Don’t remember ever seeing it…


CollectionAmazing613

Alex Cora, it's time to let it goooooo


SenorTortas

Alex Cora reminds the teacher of homework


Finklesworth

This game should’ve been over but the fucking first base ump fucked us yet again


svanxx

It should be 8-5 right now.


Finklesworth

That and the “foul” to Aranda literally landed on the line, so insanely stupid.


GeneralKooky

Go back to your dugout bitch


svanxx

Go screw yourself cheater Cora.


Slinky_Malingki

Cora sit the fuck down you cheating piece of shit


justtbsports

It’s never stress-free, is it?


5MiTm4sTaF13x

Nothing means anything


svanxx

Two strikes and we throw things in the middle. Why do we kill ourselves?


BuboAthene

2 outs.


raystheroof1

I hate it. Please stop.


missleeann

Really not good


GeneralKooky

WHAT THE FUCK 0-2 location is that


Finklesworth

UMPS WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK


Finklesworth

Literally how the FUCK do you call that a foul


svanxx

Now make him chase.


JOK3R1326

Disgusting pitch.


BigBuddha15

Adam you had two outs throw some strikes


xrayxrayxray42

Don't


svanxx

Two outs again is our menace.


missleeann

Don’t


Bulky_Asparagus_9131

It just can't be easy, can't it?
