9/3 vs Tigers

[Brennan]

Damn, just because a pitcher is good, on a roll, etc., doesn't mean you shouldn't try. I mean s***, the offense had a "Lackey is pitching so f*** it" off day yesterday. Take too many days off in September and you'll get more than enough off in October.

[Thunder]

More K's on the card. I'm up to 11 now.

[J-Beck]

I can barely keep up with this game... both pitchers are making it go by so fast.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Dog Walking Mojo, starting now

[BornToRun]

Should go as an E5

[Station 13]

I really don't like Middlebrooks playing over Bogey right now.

[jung]

A little hard to judge considering nobody else has touched Fister or Scherzer either.

 

Nobody else has really even tried to come after Vic as you would a guy that should struggle from the right side against RH pitching. They just haven't until most recently. Just think it has taken awhile for the rest of the league to figure out that they need to treat him that way. Nothing else worked!

 

If a player does something unconventional, don't expect MLB to immediately use conventional means to respond. The usual initial response is confusion.....if these guys were rocket scientists they would be....well inventing rockets.

[Thunder]

Should go as an E5

 

Finally some life on my scorecard.

[BornToRun]

Rightfully or wrongfully, Lester is going to cut Will's nuts off if this inning snowballs.

[Thunder]

Miggy up with the sacks full. Damn.

[BornToRun]

Miggy up with the sacks full. Damn.

 

Maybe he's drunk and he'll go down looking.

[J-Beck]

This inning generously brought to you by Will Middlebrooks.

[jung]

Rightfully or wrongfully, Lester is going to cut Will's nuts off if this inning snowballs.

 

You are forgetting...FO beat Jon to it.

[BornToRun]

Sit down drunkie!

[Thunder]

Typical Red Sox offensive inning right there by the Tigers.

[MANNYHOF24]

Lester is pitching like an ace tonight

[Brennan]

I'm not a Middlebrooks fan, minor leagues are littered with guys like Middlebrooks.

[J-Beck]

Carp's 1 pitch first at-bat was the best looking at-bat anyone has had against Scherzer tonight.

[Station 13]

work the damn count.

[Thunder]

How about a Jonnybomb?

[Station 13]

We should try to bunt to Miggy.

[J-Beck]

That's a fair ball, sir.

[Navafan29]

Gomes has 3 hits in 2 at-bats

[Thunder]

My man Gomes has been on base in both AB's, the only Sox player to get in base at all.

[J-Beck]

Damn ground rule double.

[Thunder]

Keep it in the yard next time Drew!

[jung]

I'm not a Middlebrooks fan, minor leagues are littered with guys like Middlebrooks.

 

Well typical of the Red Sox, the only way to make it through their system is to hit. If you can field great, that is nice but you have to hit. If you can hit, they will take just about anything in the field. WMB's current problem...not showing all that much at the plate.

 

Then again, if the future is WMB and XB, that is going to be one porous left side of the infield. I suspect, that might be the instigation to move WMB to first and eventually XB to 3rd. That of course will mean that WMB is going to have to show the promise he had previously as a power hitter.

[BornToRun]

Nice one Drew.

 

Now, no one break anything if Scherzer does what he does better than pretty much anybody and strikes out the next two hitters.

[MANNYHOF24]

Should PH here.

[BornToRun]

Here comes something in the dirt.
