Raul Ibanez hit a game winning home run in the bottom of the 9th inning to beat the Rays 2-1! It is funny that the day earlier Tampa did the same thing and beat the Indians after scoring 6 runs in the bottom of the 9th. Talk about a melt down. Ibanez is heating up, In the last 7 days Ibanez is hitting .448/.443/.759, now baseball is weird and I will dig into why Ibanez's OBP is lower than his batting average. Something to note thou is that he hasn't walked in 7 days...(OUCH!) Felix pitches 8 fantastic inning to keep the Rays at bay. His control wasn't sharp as he walked 3 but struck out 5. Jose Lopez raised his batting average to .309 by going 2-3. If Lopez could just get on base more and have a higher OBP than Batting average Lopez could turn into a superstar.
