I was really pissed how the Rays lost that game to Chicago yesterday. I keep telling myself if we can get to the last wknd of the season down 3 games to Chicago, it’s still possible.

Yeah right.

From John Donovan:

Pierzynski’s 10th-inning play on Sunday (see “Quote,” too, above) was so weak it was strong. You have to somehow appreciate a guy who can think on his feet that well. Or off his feet, as it were. And then to be able to sell it to the umpires. Beautiful. In a real ugly way.

If you missed it, it went like this: Caught in a rundown between second and third after breaking for third on a ball hit in front of him — dumb, dumb, dumb — Pierzynski, as he was stumbling back, threw out his left elbow in a desperate attempt to contact the Rays’ Aybar. It worked. After barely grazing Aybar on his way down, Pierzynski got the call from the umps that he had been obstructed in his so-called running.

Pierzynski pulled off a smart play to get to second in the first place, tagging up on a cruising and evidently unaware Upton catching a ball in center. Then A.J. turned idiot on his decision to go on the ground ball. And then he reverted to genius to get the obstruction call. He ended up scoring the winning run. What a piece of work.

said quote:

“As soon as A.J. tripped, he yelled ‘Obstruction.’ I looked at the umpire, thinking he was going to say something like, ‘Are you kidding me?’ And [the ump] was like, ‘Yep, yep, yep.’”

— Rays shortstop Jason Bartlett, on the rundown play Sunday involving White Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski, who admittedly initiated contact with Tampa Bay third baseman Willy Aybar
