8/30 @ Chicago White Sox

[Tedballgame]

Nunez helps him out by swinging at ball 3.

[Tedballgame]

this ump sucks.

[Tedballgame]

should be 3-0

[jung]

CWS have tried to keep their pen sitting for as long as possible.

[Tedballgame]

That would have been ball 4.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

this ump sucks.

 

You just have to grin and barrett.

Tigers just took the lead!

[Tedballgame]

Please pinch hit for Leon.

[jung]

Even getting the 1st out of the 7th is a real benefit to the relief pitcher coming in. But this is our shot .....now that we are into their pen.

[Tedballgame]

tigers just took the lead!

omg!

[TylerD]

Assuming Lucas Giolito is done for the night, this would mark the righthander's eighth quality start in his last 10 trips to the mound.

 

I regret benching the 24-year-old Giolito on my fantasy team.

Wow didn’t realize how good he has been. That’s impressive.

[Tedballgame]

Need a hit and, certainly, no DP.

[moonslav59]

Tigers just scored 3 off Betances in the 9th- now up 8-7.

[Tedballgame]

Thats what we needed. Good job Blake.

[FredLynn]

Its Swihart and Vas OR Leon....not both....on the postseason roster

 

Period

[Tedballgame]

Blake has to be playing more for his offense.

[Tedballgame]

JBJ should have leaned into that one.

[Tedballgame]

Back in the game.

[a700hitter]

Tie game!!!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Betts! Now one can understand why the White Sox manager was hesitant about going to the BP.

[redsoxrules]

Wow!

[Tedballgame]

Mooooookie!

[moonslav59]

Its Swihart and Vas OR Leon....not both....on the postseason roster

 

Period

 

Why? So we can keep a 12th pitcher...one of our current imploders?

 

Just carry 3 catchers, if Vaz is healthy and looking okay.

[FredLynn]

Hope the Yankees are scoreboard watching.

Vas hasn't been hitting all year-and his defense has also fallen off.

[jung]

Betts! Now one can understand why the White Sox manager was hesitant about going to the BP.

 

If Giolito had not gotten the 1st out of the inning that inning would have gotten to JD and maybe X as a tie game.

[redsoxrules]

Swi has to play more often. He's been hitting good since the allstar break

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Blake has to be playing more for his offense.

 

It's actually a no-brainer. And Sandy is not in a slump. He's hitting what he's supposed to be hitting.

[d-money]

Can the BP hold this?

[oldtimer]

New game. Timely hitting and Betts coing through in a big way. Beni is ice cold. Now the pen has to hold. Who will it be?
