6/10 v Nats

[NativeBostonian]

What dip s*** said David was declining?

[FredLynn]

That last pitch to Sweeney was six inches outside

[FredLynn]

O's, Yankees, and Jays all losing. Rays up 4-0.

Lester has to hold these guys down now.

[TutGadol]

That last pitch to Sweeney was six inches outside

 

Not really, according to pitch fx it caught the corner.

[FredLynn]

Looks like Zimmermann is getting the outside calls and Lester is not. Some consistency would sure be nice.

While 3.50 is a sporty ERA for the Sox, if we are focused on ERA, the Sox have been out-pitched by two of the three teams they have played so far this month.

 

Nats team ERA....last 14 days = 3.20, last 7 days = 3.19

O's team ERA....last 14 day = 5.01, last 7 days = 4.69

Blue Jays team ERA....last 14 days = 3.31, last 7 days = 3.07

Wonder what the ERA was league-wide over that time period. Are you using BBR to find this stuff?

[FredLynn]

Come on Gonzalez. Earn your money

[Station 13]

Gonzalez is awesome.

[jung]

Geez Agons that was another good pitch to hit beaten into the ground.

 

Yea pumps BBR. I did not look at the league totals.

[Brennan]

Gonzales for president.

[TutGadol]

Gonzo trademarked that play.

[FredLynn]

Gonzales for president.

 

Of the USA?

=United Stiffs of America?

[Station 13]

Sweeney!

[SoxFanForsyth]

That's a fantastic catch.

[jung]

What a play by Sweeney in right....after looking a little awkward out there the very first few games he played here....he has been darned good in one of the toughest RF in baseball.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Damn. I really thought Gonzo was climbing out of his funk in game 1 of this series.

[TutGadol]

I just hope Ace has his s*** together today.

[Brennan]

O's tied their game up.

 

yankoffs now trail 3-2

[Cocos Disciples]

So by the way, Jon Lester has been fantastic today.

[FredLynn]

Didn't Sweeney win some sort of competition for best athlete on the team before the season began? I sort of remember something like that.

[FredLynn]

O's tied their game up.

 

yankoffs now trail 3-2

 

And the Jays are now leading too. Its going to be tough to catch all these guys. There are no patsies in the ALE this year.

He won a the little mini basketball contest, the one they have in arcades and s***.

lol

[SoxFanForsyth]

Lester + DiceK = 11 IP, 16 K's. That's pretty crazy.

[jung]

Don't think Papi thought that pitch was going to end up where it was. Think he figured that was headed right for his wheelhouse.

[FredLynn]

Lester + DiceK = 11 IP' date=' 16 K's. That's pretty crazy.[/quote']

 

The Nats are 26th in MLB in runs scored and their OPS is barely over .700 (.703). They are a popgun offense. The survive on great pitching.

[SoxFanForsyth]

It will be interesting to see if Melancon gets in the game today if it stays close like this.

[TutGadol]

Motherf***ing fans kick him out.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Stupid f***ing fan. God that makes me want to punch that ******* in the dick.
