ALDS Game 1 @ CLE

[TylerD]

Ramirez!!!!!

[a700hitter]

Beautiful snag by Hanley to end the 8th inning.

[d-money]

Can magic occur? This was a very winnable game.

[Emp9]

Hanley being Hanley. I still don't understand all the doubters about him being fine at 1B.

[TylerD]

The struggles continue with him. Just a train wreck the last few weeks

[FenwayFaithful]

The Killer Bs have come up smaaaall tonight (minus Benintendi).

[TylerD]

Why the f*** are you swinging at that!?!?!?!?!

[TylerD]

Andrew has been good tonight

[Emp9]

Beni don't give a f***

[moonslav59]

Have you ever seen so many check swing strikes in your life?

[Jasonbay44]

Wow, what a s***** ending

[a700hitter]

What a way for it to end!!

 

Francona used his pen masterfully. Miller should get the save.

[TylerD]

Regardless of the call this is on Porcello. That horrible inning cost us the f***ing game!!!!!!! Pissed and going to bed

[FenwayFaithful]

Eh, yeah, that was a swing, Pedey.

[a700hitter]

Porcello stunk up the place and destroyed the game. We clearly had the pitching advantage with the starting matchup, but Porcello pitched like it was 2015. Just awful giving up 3 home runs in an inning.

f***

Regular season "ace"

[Maxbialystock]

Could not agree more this is on Porcello. The Guardians for the most part sat on his fastball.

 

I remember excoriating Moncada because he can't hit the curve, but there's a couple of others who have problems with a curve, especially a good one.

[Emp9]

Good thing for the Sox, even though they lost the first game, I don't think the Guardians can keep throwing the kitchen sink at them the whole series. We have to keep in mind that that was also the first play-off game for many of our young players too. It was a good game.

Specifically Xander

Price needs to come up yuuuuuge tomorrow

[Slasher9]

Great game by holt, hanram, and beni. Everyone else can suck it

Tito managed that like a game 5 or a game 7. He pushed the envelope on everyone but his SP. great job really, but I'm just not that sure he can get away with that the whole series. Kluber hasn't had his best stuff this season either.

Only guys that had terrible games were XB, Bradley and Porcello.

We need to get to Kluber early tomorrow and get back into that pen.

Porcello doesn't have a lot of playoff experience. It showed.

[a700hitter]

Shortest outing by Porcello all season. Bad timing.

Mookie.

[Emp9]

Kluber has thrown his share of klunkers. It's not impossible. I expect better things going forward by some key guys, first game jitters out of the way.

Pretty sure he got the win; Bauer didn't go long enough to qualify.
