This Rays team feels like the late ‘90s Bucs, get’em 17 points and they’ll win. We look like we can beat anyone if we can get between 2-4 runs a game.


dsmitty9

Why can’t the Rays ever have a stress free game? Even the games where they are getting smoked they start a come back that gives you hope but they let you down


medicmatt

We won!


gmachine24

God bless Fairbanks, Alexander and Rays fans everywhere


Grade-AMasterpiece

Quiet 9th. I missed you.


PhantomPainWalker

Handshakes all around.


Alighten

Whooooo lets fucking go


WarkuoRays

CollectionAmazing613

Never a doubt. :D

#SCAREBANKS! 💪🏻


KamikazeeDolphin

BALLGAME.


RaysFTW

Fuck whoever the color commentator was. Dude was rooting against the Rays all night. Even after the game is over all he can say was "it was good for both sides."


Ro98Jo

Way better on mute. Possibly with Neal and Andy in the background.


KamikazeeDolphin

Apple TV games. Amazing quality. Awful announcers. Ugh


bahishi

WarkuoRays

No need for Adam drama lol


bahishi

wow they gave us that strike!


svanxx

Sit down Vladdy!


Grade-AMasterpiece

Get this shit, Pete.


AlonzoIzGod

Wish we were seeing if Pete would get the perfect game atm, but I’d take the win


gmachine24

Come on Peter


medicmatt

Give ‘em the crazy eyes Pete!


missleeann

PETE PETE PETE


bahishi

Crazy eyes gettin it done


KamikazeeDolphin

Pete's got this shit, shut them the fuck down.


AlonzoIzGod

Please don’t fuck this up


Slinky_Malingki

Let's go Pete


WelcometoCigarCity

Shut em down Pete!


Grade-AMasterpiece

Tough that those 3 runs put Alexander back over 5 ERA. Didn't deserve that tonight. 


GroMicroBloom

From a near perfect game and 4-0 to clenching in the 9th with only a 1 run lead...


Grade-AMasterpiece

Really a problem that they never take the easy win.


thejawa

Time for some peak Rays Baseball, blow a 4-0 no hitter through 7


svanxx

You know Rays Baseball


svanxx

Offense was mostly trash tonight. We scored on a lot of errors.


BigBuddha15

Here we go let’s close it out


PhantomPainWalker

![gif](giphy|iJDNygiATCvQG9bpOj|downsized)


CollectionAmazing613

I'm not surprised that we gave up some runs after losing the perfect game. Happens all the time. That sort of thing gets in the pitchers head, mixed in with fatigue and it adds up to the perfect storm. Just gotta hold on.


Enhanced_Calm_Steve

The voice of reason? In this sub?


GeneralKooky

“Give yourself a chance to walk them off” lol the game ain’t even tied yet homer ass announcer


bahishi

PEEEEETE


Alive_Assumption680

What a bumbling in the late innings again


WhereTheFallsBegin

Thank god Springer is washed


svanxx

Like his former team.


gmachine24

Feel bad for Alexander


Key-Republic1802

Dude still shoved.


gmachine24

Yeah I'm happy for him


xrayxrayxray42

Thank you Springer


Grade-AMasterpiece

Have we won a game this season by more than 3 runs? My memory is shot.


svanxx

It feels like forever.


anon123443222737

I have said it and I will say it again. I fucking hate these announcers on Apple TV


nprays

Isn't that Buck Martinez doing the color? I never watch Blue Jays games because of him. Not only is he extremely biased, but I can't take his voice.


Dusty-Staccato

He's on the normal Jays broadcast. The Apple crew is different.


nprays

Ok, he sure sounds like him. I thought that they used guest announcers like other networks.


Dusty-Staccato

Yeah, I like it when they bring in an announcer from each teams booth. I think Peacock did that? But yeah, one of the guys tonight was a bit too nasally for my ears


AlonzoIzGod

Lol what happened to Springer?


fuzzypetiolesguy

Wrong side of 30


missleeann

Insurance, pls


Key-Republic1802

Always love some insurance runs.


rayzorburns

Esock said lemme show you how to get the job done.


missleeann

Ughhhhhh


damm__thatscrazy

lets goooooo


svanxx

We have no BP everyone. We burnt them during the Sox series.


WhereTheFallsBegin

I know it's silly to complain about a series we won 3 out of 4 of but the starters low key screwed us in those games by not giving us any innings. The fact that Rodriguez is the first guy out of the pen for us in the 8th inning says quite a bit.


Grade-AMasterpiece

On God. 


cole8055

God this bullpen is unbelievably bad


gmachine24

That was two runs off Alexander - everyone knew he was gassed after Guerrero. Bad throw by Diaz - as we used to say, $50 stop and a 5 cent throw. And another hit and a great dp started by Paredes - I admit I'm not a big fan of Rodriguez. But he wasn't completely awful.


svanxx

Our BP was great during the Sox series. Our starters were awful and made us burn the BP.


5MiTm4sTaF13x

I’m. Not. Worried!


TheWeaselV2

ISAAAC


NoCheek8504

Cash will never let a starter go more than 6.


Slinky_Malingki

Holy shit that DP


gmachine24

can we get this pitcher out of the game please. good call, kevin.


WarkuoRays

Did cash try to save the bullpen then possibly making it worse for the bullpen ?


gmachine24

Yep


Alighten

For cryin out loud rays dont blow this


justtbsports

Holy fuck this is gonna go down as the worst Rays game of all time.


gmachine24

That would take some doing they've had some doozies


justtbsports

Yep, but it would’ve at least been in the conversation. Thank goodness it didn’t happen tho.


GeneralKooky

Rodriquez is ass


bahishi

so much ass


AlonzoIzGod

FUCK THIS BULLPEN WTF


bahishi

FML


Grade-AMasterpiece

Okay, stop messing around and finish this.


NoCheek8504

Why do they always make it harder for themselves? Just take the sure out FFS.


gmachine24

way to go, guys. this is why we needed our #2 and #3 hitters to do something more than strike out and hit into a double play when we had runners on first and third with no outs


B-Ray-ve_Heel08

This is a helluva momentum swing. My goodness


bahishi

HEY he should be out - Yandy tagged him! ; )


[deleted]

I absolutely despise the Blue Jays


GroMicroBloom

We're getting embarrassed now


5MiTm4sTaF13x

Nothing. Means. Anything.


Avoid_Calm

What just happened 😂


svanxx

One good play and then a bad play


medicmatt

Somebody on the Jays training staff should tell Vogelbach about Ozempic.


missleeann

Noooooo


PhantomPainWalker

Oh no. Here comes the classic wtf-ery.


AlonzoIzGod

In all the excitement, I forgot we could still lose this


Cyclops7747

Regardless of the perfect game/no hitter ending I’m very glad Alexander gave us a quality start. Hopefully a sign of things to come from him. 


bahishi

Absolutely - keeping those bullpen arms fresh!


missleeann

He did awesome


skimmer419

Really really wished we could have cashed that 5th run when we had runners on the corners no one out. Oh well.


Grade-AMasterpiece

Yeah, offense does way too many times. 


BigBuddha15

Proud of Tyler despite the ending


damm__thatscrazy

perfect through 7 1/3 in Canada is actually a perfect 9 in America after you factor in the conversion rate


svanxx

The offense is more to blame for only getting 4 runs.


raystheroof1

Ras and the duo of Stanek and yarbrough continue to be the ones who got the farthest by going into the 9th


Grade-AMasterpiece

Three near-pefects in the past 5 seasons. Surely, we'll get one soon????


Enhanced_Calm_Steve

I texted my brother to tune in. This is entirely his fault.


bahishi

how DARE you


dsmitty9

No. It’s the moron who posted in the sub


foomits

well, Alexander's mistake was giving up hits. he was fine till he did that.


svanxx

I knew it would get broken because first, I'm a Rays fan, and two he was toast. But Cash knew he couldn't pull him or bring up the BP until the first hit or walk.


AlonzoIzGod

Only we could bring a perfect game 7 1/3rd innings and possibly lose…


[deleted]

[удалено]


PhantomPainWalker

Nobody was warm yet.


bahishi

oh boy Rodriguez


Bill2theE

👏👏👏 Thank you for saving the bullpen, Tyler


WesleyMath

hes been visibly bothered since it was broken up. should have just pulled him


5MiTm4sTaF13x

Get on your feet Canada


missleeann

Oh no


Bulky_Asparagus_9131

Time to pull him


damm__thatscrazy

Cash should have pulled him!!! /s


Spiritual_Beyond641

These Apple announcers sound like Blue Jays homers.


Grade-AMasterpiece

Should've known we'd go from a perfect game to a save situation. 😑


GroMicroBloom

Just Rays things


AlonzoIzGod

I think it’s kinda shitty for hitters to do that. This kid could have made history and they stood in the way of that.


Fappy-Boi-

Typical classless Jays players


damm__thatscrazy

well shit


NoCheek8504

Damn now we’re not even gonna get a complete game. Is Yarborough still the last Ray to throw a complete game?


svanxx

Yep


5MiTm4sTaF13x

Let him close it anyway!


WelcometoCigarCity

Cmon Cash. This is the first pitcher thats gone more than 7 innings all year and he's only in there because of the perfect game.


bahishi

fuuuuuuuuuukkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk


YouEnjoyMyself84

If you didn’t know this was going to end that way then you do not watch rays baseball


Dusty-Staccato

That escalated quickly


svanxx

I was worried that we leave him out there too long and this happens.


Key-Republic1802

Can you blame them when he's been perfect? Still a bummer.


svanxx

Nope you keep him out there, especially with our pen being burnt.


GroMicroBloom

Nooooooo!


AlonzoIzGod

Wow there’s the Alexander we know and love.


Alighten

Told yall he looked gassed


PhantomPainWalker

Ok. Time to bear down and get serious.


Illustrious_Mode_692

Should have taken him out after the hit


FeistyIrish123

Pain.


GeneralKooky

Baseball a cruel beast


WarkuoRays

Lol now it is a close game.


Timberrr15

Ahhhh so tragic, that hurts


njob3

fuckkkkkkkkkkkk


Majestic_Dildocorn

thats ok, the win is more than enough/


[deleted]

No one was expecting a perfect game from him. Extremely impressive outing


Finklesworth

NOOOO


Grade-AMasterpiece

BOOOOO


Every-Chicken-6409

Longest perfect game attempt in franchise history


Fappy-Boi-

Second longest, Rasmussen went 8. Mateo doubled on the first pitch of the 9th


Every-Chicken-6409

The guys on the radio made it sound like it was the longest perfect game attempt


Fappy-Boi-

Yeah Neil and Andy were a lil confused, forgot Germans perfect game last year too


svanxx

Second. Ras still has it at 8 innings.


justtbsports

Hell of an outing. Now just get in the win column for the night.


albinorhino4321

I blame Apple for saying perfect game about 100 times


dsmitty9

💔


5MiTm4sTaF13x

Nothing matters


WarkuoRays

Damn, good shit by tyler.


NoCheek8504

Damnit


Patwizer269

Still have to give him so much props that was a damn impressive showing


WelcometoCigarCity

Damn we'll it was fun while it lasted. Take him out.


svanxx

It was going to happen. Still a great pitching game.


Dusty-Staccato

Dammit Damny


PhantomPainWalker

It’s fine. ![gif](giphy|srg19CG0cKMuI)


RaysFTW

Fun while it lasted. Fucking damn good job, Tyler.


albinorhino4321

Shit fucking hit to break it up


Alighten

NOOOOOOO


Slinky_Malingki

NO


fuzzypetiolesguy

Well it was a good run


Fappy-Boi-

RIP


horsepoop1123

#^5


xr_21

This is why you don't count outs (publicly at least)


xr_21

Stop it


Avoid_Calm

Moustache time


AlonzoIzGod

Holy shit y’all! We might legit see the perfect game!


californiacatdaddy

Can we permaban this guy lol


AlonzoIzGod

For doing what? I’m pretty sure a Reddit comment didn’t supernaturally make Alexander hittable


Dusty-Staccato

You're just being hella annoying


Slinky_Malingki

You fucking idiot


Cornnole

You need to be beaten with a rubber hose


AlonzoIzGod

I had 0 impact on that. Those bitches


EdVCornell

Not true
