TBS waited all of one minute to mess it up. It's one thing to call the Rays "Tampa.'' That was expected and it's not uncommon. It's another to tell viewers the game is in Tampa.

Almost immediately after TBS's pregame show started, it was pitched to game analyst Harold Reynolds, who is at Tropicana Field. Underneath Reynolds was a graphic that said, "Tampa, Fl.'' We're hoping Reynolds actually is at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg and not some ballpark in Tampa.
