Did you know?
The American League East has three teams with 90 wins (Yankees, Red Sox, Rays). Since 1990, only three other times has a division had three 90-win teams. And this is the first time the AL East has had three 90-win teams since 1987: Detroit (98), Toronto (96), Milwaukee (91).
With honors
Rays C Kelly Shoppach was surprised but excited to find out he was elected into the Baylor University Athletics Hall of Fame, an honor that was officially announced this week. Shoppach was the inaugural Johnny Bench Award winner as the nation's top collegiate catcher in 2001, and led the Bears to three NCAA Tournament appearances. "I just never thought with all the athletes, I never really saw myself (in the Hall of Fame)," he said. "I know I had some good years, one incredible year, man it's just unbelievable."
Quote of the night
"We'll go down in history as one of the worst collapses in history, so it definitely doesn't feel good to be part of that."
