It’s a season to find out who and what these kids are.

Did the Catcher take a foul off the cup? Dude must be cross-eyedAlex Reyes Cy Young wrote: ↑28 Mar 2026 15:21 pmThe pitch to burley in the 5?? Was a strike and they let it go for ball 4 I believe.

IMO. Catcher should not have challenged the pitch
Called a ball to Winn.
Early in count.
By doing so and bring wrong they have no challenges for 9th final inning.
Down 4 runs , you should save that for your final team at bat
Poor challenge in my book
Bad strategy.
Imagine scenario where Rays load the bases with 2 outs in 9th..
3-2 count in batter and ump punches batter out tio end thr game on pitch that walks in run and keeps bases loaded.

No, it’s knowing the situation and what these kids expectations of the season should be.

Is this how the Rays are designed? Just make contact and reach base with speed?
What a load of garbage. Nothing more frustrating in MLB than undeserved luck.

Svanson not real sharp so far this season. Hopefully he gets it going
