Rays shine through rain, burn Braves 10-4

“I don’t understand why there is a delay, and I have to complain ‘cause there’s no rain…”

Sorry, Blind Melon moment. The Atlanta Braves did a rain dance and the Tampa Bay Rays did a victory dance in Tuesday night/Wednesday morning's inter-league action as David Price picked up his 10th win of the season with Tampa Bay cruising to a 10-4 victory. Fans who tuned into the game were treated to a rain delay more than two hours long, with most of the first hour spent waiting in anticipation of actual rain. The worst thing about sitting through the weather delay was the entertainment on Sun Sports. “Inside the Rays” is pretty interesting most of the time, but then came the surfing programs; they were so mind-numbing I’d have rather watched World Cup soccer while waiting for the game to start… Okay, so maybe the surfing wasn’t that bad. Viewers also got to watch Todd Kalas get pelted by sunflower seeds by a player out of frame as he interviewed Bobby Ramos, the Rays’ bullpen coach. Oh, those rain delay antics.

More after the jump.
