Game 2 Under the Dome

Tonight marks the return to the Rays of Scott Kazmir (whose name brings a groan of regret from Mets fans everywhere). Chris Volstad will start for the fabulous Fish.

Tonight's starting time is at 7:08, compared with last night's starting time of 7:38. I must have missed something - what's with the 8's? A quick look at Google gave me no reason why there's an 8 minute rule on Rays' games. I almost thought they were sponsered by BrandsMart, but I don't think there's a BrandsMart over there.

Pat Benatar's doing a show after the game tonight.

The Rays and Marlins both won last year on June 27, and lost the year before on June 27. They've played each other twice on June 27, in 2004 and 2006, and the Marlins won both times.

DOUBLE-FOO: Fish lose 3-2 - Phillies gain a game on the NL East.
