5/16 @ Rays

[redsoxbeatz]

Ouch. Sorry WMB. Cherry probably uses that K as the excuse to send down Midflebrooks.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Well at least they worked the pitch count up on him but that was a hell of a job of pitching out of jam...had WMB all crossed up and finally punched him out.

 

On a pitch that wasn't being called all inning, and was 3-4 inches outside. ******** call.

No credit to the enemy man. Messes up the mojo.

[Station 13]

Well at least they don't chase Hellickson change I see lots of other teams do.

[BornToRun]

I'm so glad he cut his hair.

[redsoxbeatz]

Haircut!!

[jung]

Gonzo needs to clean out fastballs inside better than he's doing now. He's getting jammed too much.

 

as per our discussion the other night...if he keeps looking for that FB outside he is making it easy for them to jam him inside...he is always looking to extend his arms and has been meat for that inside pitch.

[BornToRun]

Wow. I hadn't noticed we were playing Ryan in center.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Wow. I hadn't noticed we were playing Ryan in center.

 

For like the past 5 or 6 games.

[BornToRun]

You think we can hold onto mike as a utility guy if and when Iggy is ready. He's decent defensively, can play a few positions and has some pop.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Wow. That missed....where?

[SoxFanForsyth]

I can already tell you, this umpire is going to have a horrifying game.

[BornToRun]

Nice inning, clay.

The Ross Boss is sharpening his buck knife.

[Station 13]

Umps is giving 4-5 inches on the outside corners. Buchholz is trying to go in on the lefties. Let's change it up next time the guy bat a 2nd time.

Sweeney has played well in Center......Nava in LF, Sweeney in Center has kept both Byrd and dmac out of there which has really helped the overall quality of play from the outfield. Ross is kinda' iffy in RF but he should have less trouble on the road than at home. Our RF is very tough compared to others.

Yeah, fenways right has always been tricky.

It's gotta be a nightmare to get all that pine tar off Salty's shoulder of his jersey every night. I'd hate to be the guy having to wash his jersey.

[Station 13]

Salty swing through a 92 meatball.

Imagine how much the guy doing David wells underwear hated his job.

[jung]

I have given up on the umps this year....I think we have had maybe one or possibly two good games from umps especially at home plate, maybe six or seven mediocre games where they had odd ideas about where the plate was but were at least consistent and the rest of the games have just been piss poor....an embarrassment....getting close to the NBA which I did not think possible.

[redsoxbeatz]

Lol salty. Not suprising

How many times you plannin on having these guys bat a 2nd time? :harhar:

[SoxFanForsyth]

Gotta wonder why these guys aren't sitting change up on Hellickson.

[BornToRun]

That was low.

[BornToRun]

At least he's averaging around 20 pitches an inning.

[jung]

Holy s***....that sucked!

[Station 13]

Really? hellickson is going to K 10+? The guy is around 5k/9 his carerr.

[redsoxbeatz]

Hellickson getting into his rhythm or just the bottom of the order? Eek.

[jung]

Really can't sit change up the way the guy is pitching and the way the ump is calling this game. If the pitcher can get both his FB and change for strikes in good locations or with this ump off the plate even, your goose is cooked.

 

You really want to sit FB and if he misses with location on the change, just stick your bat out and dump the ball into the outfield. If you sit change you will never catch up to the FB.
