The SOX were manhandled by a starting rag arm, who entered the game with a 6.14 ERA.
More embarrassing stuff from this team. Just not good.
Well…. We always have that one run we scored yesterday to look back on
That was magical.
After the 10-1 beat down by the Mariners, the pen has not been all that bad:
IP-ER
5/16: 3.2-0 (2 H+BB)
5/17: 4.0-1 (5 H+BB)
5/19: 3.0-0 (1)
5/20: 2.0-0 (2)
5/21: 6.2-2 (3)
5/22: 2.0-1 (3)
5/23: 1.0-2 (4)
22.1 IP
3 ER
1.21 ERA
20 BB+H
0.896 WHIP
I think the pen is coming back around after a bad 6 game stretch with ATL, STL and that first game v SEA.
Now, it's the bats.
When you say it's gonna happen now
When exactly do you mean?
Like Yogi used to say, "I"m not in a slump, I'm just not hittin" this happens nobody to blame, they'll come out of it
Could be, Bobby Bonds, Barry's father, had outstanding numbers,always traded, he was a horror show in the club house
Good correction on my strident post. Your numbers are better than my opinion.
That said, Jansen did blow back to back saves badly with multiple runs given up in both games. And his one save since then included two BB's. Winck looks back on track, but the time before was pretty awful. Crawford blew a 1-1 game night before last. Them's my excuses for being strident.
I do agree the hitting is the issue now. Ironically, it comes at a time when the rotation (except for Kluber and Pivetta) has looked particularly good.
Also this. McGuire looked pretty good catching Bello last night. I like Wong, but I want McGuire to be good too.
No BBs from Bello was a minor miracle.
Wong would have made him walk 5.
LOL

Can someone explain why Wong called for a slow sweeping curve ball up in the zone to Trout to facilitate his 2 run HR ? Surely it had nothing to do with Rodriguez's pitching , who was not impressive either.
After Cora came out mid-inning to talk to Bello after the failed attempt to retire Ohtani on the toss from Casas, the Angel fan sitting next to me asked if I thought Bello was injured. I said , No, but he may be butt hurt after Cora explains the history of pitcher's getting to 1B timely.
Renfro is a strange man who adamantly clings to his obscure beliefs. For example, he ridiculed both Flat Earthers and Round Earthers and is a devout Burrito Earther…
People like to rip the Donner Party, but did anyone leave it with an empty stomach?
