Top 1: Evan Longoria called out on strikes against Felipe Paulino
Top 3: Longoria singled to left against Paulino
Top 5: Longoria stuck out swinging against Paulino
Top 6: Longoria called out on strikes against Blake Wood
Top 8: Longoria struck out swinging against Louis Coleman
Final Line: 1-for-5, RBI, 4 K, 7 LOB
Notes: Although the game went well for the Rays—5-0 win—the same can’t be said for Longo. Now hitting .242 on the season, Longoria fanned in four of his five at-bats on Sunday, and left seven runners on base in the process. He also committed a throwing error, but luckily it didn’t spoil Alex Cobb’s gem.
Total 2011 Sombreros: 73
How does the 73 golden sombreros compare to last year? Longoria’s season confuses me.
