It used to be kind of funny when a Kansas City Royal would hit a pop fly off a catwalk in a June game that had no bearing on the standings. But a lot has changed this year, and in case you haven't noticed, the Tampa Bay (Devil) Rays are just four wins away from the World Series.
There's a good chance the Rays will have to play four games in the juice box that is Tropicana Field to get to the pinnacle of the sport. That means the series could potentially turn on one of the 724 ground rules regarding catwalks, ceilings or whatever crazy junk comes off that ridiculous domed roof.
Nothing says intant baseball classic like Chip Carey announcing this gem, "Pena swings and drives one to left field, Bay going back...and...it...is...wait, what happened? It's off the catwalk. Is it gone? Is it a double? Is it an out? The umpires are conferring...and it's a home run! The Rays are going to the World Series...but they don't know it yet."
There's an 87 percent chance Jack Buck will roll over in his grave before this series is over.
