Any crumb to taste Then, in the sixth, when Tampa-bred Wade Boggs hit a homer, we learned what a serious Trop cheer can sound like. Better than that, when the Rays rallied for four runs in the home half of the ninth, the rag roof shimmied from the uproar. Even if 30 percent of the sold-out arena had already gone home, well before the last out. We'll get the hang of this. It will take a while, but Tampa Bay will adjust.
Baseball operates at a unique pace, so unlike football, hockey and basketball.
Good thing, I think. Especially when the home team is getting bounced 11-6. You know that another chance will quickly come along. The Tigers will hang around through Thursday. Two more games.
