7/25 vs Los Tigres

[Thunder]

Very tough loss. Still tied for my best mojo run ever. I'm spending the week at UConn, so I got more important things to worry about anyway.

Ok folks. The game's over. Let me give you the stats right now. The sox in games where their are 4 runs or less are now 8-15. Wanna know the orioles record in those games? They are now 15-6 after tonight. This team's not getting the job done in these close games. They have done some choking as well. Edited July 26, 2016 by d-money

We need a real LF, Holt has killed us the last 3 games.

[Station 13]

Ausmus going to KRod for a 4 out save.

 

K-Rod threw maybe 3 pitches within the strike zone to get 4 outs.

[d-money]

They needed a good home stand. They gotta win these two remaining games.

Ah, the art of pitching. Give the illusion of a strike and get the hitter to chase.

 

The huge call was the 2-0 strike called on Betts that wasn't even borderline. Completely changed the at-bat, although Mookie looked a little rusty tonight.

Or the ump to chase......

 

Holt stayed of a close one that might have been a strike and had made a difference. There were others.....

 

Game of deception and millimeters.....

I wouldn't put this one in the horrific category; with Verlander on the hill for the Tigers, Monday night always figured to be a tough match-up and he was on last night. If JBJ's ball doesn't hit 2nd base, the Sox don't score off him at all.

[Kimmi]

The loss hurt, but the good news for the bigger picture is that Pomeranz pitched well.

 

We need to win the next two.

Can they hit a good pitcher for once?

fair enough. horrific probably too strong for this one. we did have a chance once he was out of the game though. so i will go with disappointed.

Yup, the 8th inning just sucked.
