Need to get more runners on base for Longoria

[GaUSFBull]

How many solo shots has he had?  Not that the Rays are having a lot of trouble scoring runs, but I know Longo has had at least had two straight solo homers. 

This is not meant to pile on Maddon for not playing Crawford the other day, though.

should be batting #3

he's gotten hits with lots of guys on base....I mean he's a league leader in RBI's.  It's more a case of irony that when he gets his HR's it seems to be in situations when no one is on base.  He has 9 doubles, 2nd most on the team, and I swear every big RBI hit he gets is a base clearing double.  I suppose we can be nitpicky, but if he went all year and hit 35 solo HR's, and 35 base clearing doubles...we could all live with that. ;D

Wasn't meant to be nitpicky ...  the last couple nights not withstanding, I'm happy with Longo's play of late.  The above statement is my sentiment - just think it's crazy that seems like every time he HRs, it's solo.  Ironic was definitely the word I was looking for ... thanks for that.  8-)
