GAME NOTES: Before, I would like this. Before, I would like to face the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. Now, however? Off a stinging defeat where we kept bombing home-runs to see them die at the warning track? Off a defeat solely at the hands of Josh Beckett and an all too predictable double play grounder by Ken Huckaby? Against a team that seems to give us fits lately? Let’s just hope we’re in the race by the time we leave Florida.
