We needed the two outs even giving up the run there. If we can't get three runs off Fister we just can't. Throwing breaking balls for strikes seems to be the way to mow through the Sox lineup if you are going to do it. FB's Nope...not going to happen. Even FB/Change pitchers don't seem to present too many problems for the Sox hitters. But a guy that can throw breaking balls for strikes....watch out.

Out given up for nothing....I understand why the sac bunt attempt there but you could see Salty having a hard time laying one down against Fister. I really would have been tempted to let Salty swing given the circumstances.

WMB got a good pitch to hit for him...did nothing with it unfortunately. That was a big spot. Should have allowed Salty to hit away. Still might have gotten the runners over while making out but I did not believe Salty could lay one down against Fister. Hell a good bunter might have trouble laying one down on Fister.

Thornton has been another dud trade. He has done absolutely nothing here.

 

Middle relief tends to be the weak underbelly of the ML team...for us it is a weak, flabby underbelly that is far too easy to slash open leaving our intestines flopping out on the ground. The ability of the hitters to take the ball to either a set up guy and Ueh or straight to Ueh has been a big big deal for us.

May just stop watching all of Lackeys starts. This is ridiculous. Poor Lackey man. I would want to deck every single one of the hitters. And Farrell for trying to bunt with Fister on the ropes.

 

Just a terrible game

Lackey has to be steaming again.

 

Wins for a pitcher don't matter anymore, right? It's a meaningless stat I've heard.
