Filed under: Rangers, Rays, MLB Playoffs, American League Division SeriesST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Cliff Lee lost just nine times in 2010.
Three of those came in his three starts against the Rays.
But Lee said his 0-3 record against Tampa Bay won't matter Wednesday when he takes the mound for Texas in the AL Division Series opener.
"It has zero bearing on the game tomorrow," Lee said Tuesday. "It's a new game. We start over on a new slate, and I'm going to expect to go out there and have success, and I would anticipate them thinking the same thing."
In those three starts against the Rays -- two for the Mariners in May and one for the Rangers in August -- Lee had a 4.56 ERA. But in 23 2/3 innings he walked just two, struck out 25 and didn't allow a homer.
So how did the Rays beat him? Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments
