The Rays play two games in one day with fake retro uniforms, in the same multi-purpose facility and it's somehow a treasure? Even Tom Jones is excited?

Looked like it was pretty cool, honestly, and treasure probably because of its' rarity ... and the players whining about it put a little more emhasis on the publicity.

As I wrote my post, I couldn't help but think as everyone else was gleeful about this spectacle, I know the players union and players would moan about the overtime.

If they had foreseen the length that a lot of the Rays games have gone to this year they probably would have foregone the doubleheader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A doubleheader today means a day off later on down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
