OT: 2016 Red Sox/MLB Regular Season V - "And down the stretch they come!"

[UNB Bruins Fan]

Neither do I...that was a great pitch, clearly a strike.

 

[Boston BROin]

There are lots of times to argue a call. That wasn't one of them. Great pitch.

 

[KesselBuiltMyHotrod]

Hanley being Manny lol

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

At some point, you've got to stop getting cocky and recognize the odds on these risky base running plays they try. 90% of the time it's resulting in an out.

 

[KesselBuiltMyHotrod]

I think it was worth the risk. I'm not even sure he was out.

 

[Seidenbergy]

Just woke up from a ridiculous nap. What channel is this game on?

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

I think it was worth the risk. I'm not even sure he was out.

With two outs, you can only have so much of a problem with it, even if there is risk.

That being said, with all the risk they've taken in the past couple of days, none of them (that I can remember) have worked out. When you've already got the momentum, you might want to rethink taking the risk, even if there are two outs.

Just my two cents and very much an opinion.

Down a run....not worth the risk
Up a run, I like it....just wish he committed to it sooner....he'd have been safe, easily.

 

[Johnnyduke]

It's certainly fair to call price out for the number of terrible games he has pitched, however.

Hopefully we can hang on here...

Hanley knows Leon is terrible in high-lev situations.

 

[Ten Thousand Hours]

Hanley knows Leon is terrible in high-lev situations.

Just like he knew Shaw would get out Friday if it made it to him. Hanley in hero mode.

 

[UNB Bruins Fan]

He's doing everything...should probably just replace Farrell.

 

[UNB Bruins Fan]

Nice.

Great job by the bullpen today.

 

[KesselBuiltMyHotrod]

A one-run win, praise be Hanley.

Betts 30

Bogearts 40 career home runs 40 different pitchers

Kid is amazing

Can't help but think of this every time I talk about the the three B's...

Bogaerts, Betts and Bradley
They’re young, they’re fast, they’re lean
Home runs on a rope
They give Red Sox hope
Winning multiple M-V-P’s!

Watched some of the game and that lineup is fantastic.

Btw, Degrom now joins Harvey, wheeler and Matz out for the season.

Don't worry Lou, Tim Tebow will save the day...

 

[UNB Bruins Fan]

Carrasco got injured tonight when a comebacker hit his hand...has a non-displaced fracture ...that potential match-up with Cleveland just got a bit more favourable

Got your text - deGrom is one of my star pitchers I'm as depressed as you - because the way the league is structured if he misses most of next year I lose him

Why you never trade star position players for star pitchers

Earnie Broglio for Lou Brock

Milt Pappis for Frank Robinson

Jim Fergosi for Nolan Ryan (doesn't count)

A Sunday afternoon Sox/Yanks game would be different.

 

[Jdavidev]

A Sunday afternoon Sox/Yanks game would be different.

Looking forward to a sweep. Putting an end to the Yankees miracle run to the PO has been nice, but getting a tight grip on the division is even nicer.

 

[Fossy21]

Jays lose again. A sweep would be nice.

 

[Alicat]

No Papi tonight.

Makes sense since he's been doing a lot of running lately.

 

[KesselBuiltMyHotrod]

Maybe the Sox medical staff should have thought twice about Pomeranz's shoulder
