mike tim's again?

 

nevermind, changing for lopez, good move francona

[example1]

He's played the percentages correctly.

 

I get the sense that he rarely does otherwise. Playing the percentages does not guarantee success, but neither does going with hunches. Percentages and probabilities tend to even themselves out over time.

[TedWilliams101]

Timlin back in there. Oh my god. Tito, your gonna kill me.

[schillingouttheks]

Lowell's a monster.

 

And Timlin's out of there. Good work Timlin. I tip my cap.

[TheKilo]

Hinske was taken out right? WMP's in RF.

 

Aye.

[example1]

Thanks for only wanting to see like 6 pitches tonight brandon inge.

[a700hitter]

Nifty pick up by Lowell.

In what universe is pitching Mike Timlin in a tie game the correct percentages?

[TedWilliams101]

So far this season, we are 1-3 in extra inning games. A good part of that is due to Tito making stupid moves late in games.

I've never seen someone overreact that much. Yeah, I'm bad, but I don't think I'm THAT bad.

 

Alright. Lopez time. Here we go. Get 'er done Lopez!!

[zackredsox]

1,2,3 ining we cant keep doing this forever

Umm, in the universe of all available Red Sox pitchers in the 12th inning on 7/7/07.

I meant to start the 11th.

[Cityofchampions33]

that'll do lopez, that'll do

Yeah, that was pretty weird. I admit it.

 

Sorry man, extra innings. My apologies to all. I just get sick of the rabid negativity toward things that just don't make sense, or when the results don't warrant such negativity.

[Cocos Disciples]

Lopez does the job, on to the 13th...

[Cityofchampions33]

well done lopez, well done

[TheKilo]

Lopez sacks up. Score a f***ing run please.

 

Anyone getting flashbacks to the Chicago game at the end of the first half last year?

[example1]

I meant to start the 11th.

 

You would have gone with Papelbon first and Lopez second, huh? that's fair enough. I probably would have too. Of course, now in hindsight, with Lopez and Papelbon still fresh and this game not over yet it looks like it was the right call.

LOL. How f***ing CLASSIC would it be if Tito put in Tavarez? LOL.

Eh, I don't think it was the right call, I just think Tito got extremely lucky.

[Cityofchampions33]

if we're gunna score fof of anyone, it's gunna be Grilli

[schillingouttheks]

who cares?? nobady scored

 

Because it was the wrong move to make. It worked out, but it was lucky. Lots of luck. Luck luck luck.

[Youk Of The Nation]

That game pissed me the f*** off. Four f***ing hours and two baseball game's worth of innings and they lost.

[riverside sluggers]

6.10 ERA Grilli on the mound

 

Lowell, Varitek, Bailey

[TheKilo]

Yes. And there was a significant measure of luck involved.

[schillingouttheks]

That game pissed me the f*** off. Four f***ing hours and two baseball game's worth of innings and they lost.

 

I didn't even care at that point. I just wanted someone to score so I could go do something else.

 

Remember that we won the series. The White Sox fans were all "THIS IS THE TURN-AROUND OF OUR SEASON OMG!!!" even though they lost that series.... sigh.
