Good thing Molina swung at that. Hunters delivery was so slow on that pitch the steal would have definitely been a success if Molina let it just sail past. Wouldn't have even been close.

Also, can someone explain what happened on the previous batter's (cannot remember his name) strike out? The ball hit his bat and went foul... What happened there?

If you bunt foul with two strikes, you're out.

Archer, the pitcher you mean. He was bunting with two strikes. Rule is if you foul a bunt with two strikes, you're out. And this ump is really starting to annoy me. He's giving the Rays borderline pitchers but not us. But hey redemption on the next pitch.

I honestly don't think we deserve this game. That's embarrassing. Totally and utterly craptacular. Wieters has come up small way too often at the plate and this in inexcusable from a supposed teamleader. 3-0? We lose this game he should donate his game check. He should be embarrassed.

I'm not thrilled about the at bat but he does lead the team in RBI. So if he's coming up small in important situations how do we define the rest of the teams performance?

I agree. It's not like it was a fat pitch. Wieters may have been looking for a fastball in a certain zone to get in the air, and he laid off on a two seamer that came back over the plate.

It definitely looked that way to me, the way he kind of hopped back....I think it's pretty clear he was looking for something middle-outside.

Archer? He was trying to bunt. He bunted it foul with 2 strikes, that's an out. It's to prevent a batter from just bunting to wear out a pitcher.
