8/28 vs Marlins

[Tedballgame]

Has Kinsler hit a homer with the Sox yet?

[greenmonster24]

Not for stupid ump bases would be loaded no outs

[illinoisredsox]

After he gave up a hit and a walk to put himself in that spot. He sucks.

 

Yeah. The hits didn't bother me, they happen. But once again he had 2 strikes on a hitter and ended up walking him.

[a700hitter]

Swihart is good for a DP here.

[Tedballgame]

Come on Blake. One time!

[illinoisredsox]

I either said this in the last game thread or on the regular board but we don't have an 8th inning guy. One of the things Cora has got to figure out is who is the 8th inning guy and then how does he cut up his bullpen by specific need.

 

Every one of our pen guys are effectively the same pitcher which is why it always turns out to be Cora simply choosing an arm that is the most rested. There is no dif between any of them really. FB and a secondary pitch is what they are, pitcher after pitcher.

 

Well, no one is making it easy on Cora and clamoring to take the job.

To be fair Barnes had been very good before tonight’s blow up

[illinoisredsox]

Swihart is good for a DP here.

 

Probably.

[Tedballgame]

This ump!

[jung]

i do recognize by the way that the Sox have tried to force feed Barnes as the 8th inning guy. But that is not what he is and I just don't understand why they thought he would be.

[a700hitter]

A couple of wild pitches would be nice.

[jung]

Come on Swi...one time

[redsoxrules]

Ffs. Right down the pipe and missed it

We need to get Barraclough before this series is over.

[Tedballgame]

That strikeout is the final nail in the coffin.

[a700hitter]

He stinks.

[illinoisredsox]

You could see that coming. Guys been all over the place and gets 2 strikes on perfect unhittable pitches.

[Tedballgame]

Since August 7 he has given up 9 runs in 8 1/3 innings. Is that good?

[illinoisredsox]

This ump has not had a good night.

[Tedballgame]

Jackie will k on a slider in the dirt.

[jung]

Here comes trips.....JBJ won't catch up to that I fear

[a700hitter]

I wish I could make a bet on this 3rd strike

[a700hitter]

Can we get a wild pitch?

[Tedballgame]

I was wrong again. Thank you. Reverse psychology.

[a700hitter]

I never doubted Bradley for a moment.

[Tedballgame]

wild pitch please.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Thank You, Mr Mattingly.

[iortiz]

Wow! This team somehow tied it. Beyond the drama, this is fun jajaja

[jung]

That is actually the best we could have expected from JBJ. Nice job Jackie. I will guarantee that the ball found his bat.

[redsoxrules]

I'm shocked
