10/5 ALDS Game 1 vs NYY

[a700hitter]

Porcello was confident and dealing. He gave up a cheapie 40’ roller. You don’t pull him

There is always that pesky Porcello ball.

Exactly.

[jung]

Can't risk the 2 run Porcello.

 

Well yea..but there is the chance that Kimbrel will walk one more guy on AND then give up a bomb.

[Station 13]

Ball after ball

[jung]

No matter what happens, Cora has over-managed this game to s***

[Slasher9]

Cora managed like a rookie tonight. Hopefully kimbrel bails him out

[a700hitter]

WTF!! Strikes please!

[Slasher9]

Whew

[a700hitter]

Good job!

[TylerD]

Kimbrel gets him! Please get an insurance run.

[iortiz]

Perfect! Let’s make some runs!

[vegasbob]

For a laugh, save Kimbrel for tomorrow and bring Wright on for the save. Or maybe try a new idea and score a couple more runs.

[Slasher9]

I feel like we need to score a couple here. Heart of yankees order in the 9th....

[Station 13]

Time to get a run or two.

[jung]

Come on Sox. At least get us one run so we don't get tied on a bloop and a blast.

[d-money]

I would love another run here.

[a700hitter]

Bottom of our order. We will need to make this 2-run lead hold up.

He does give up a lot of HRs

[a700hitter]

He does give up a lot of HRs

They are called Porcellos.

[a700hitter]

Do you PH for Leon this inning?

[TylerD]

He does give up a lot of HRs

He gives up a lot early which is scary and then settles down. But porcello looked damn good until that small hit.

[a700hitter]

4 pitchers to get 6 outs. Yikes!

[redsoxrules]

Nice swing on ball 4 nunez

[iortiz]

At least Leon has made contact in his ABs

[a700hitter]

Leon can't even get lucky in an AB.

[illinoisredsox]

Do you PH for Leon this inning?

 

They didn’t but I would have said no; he’s been too good defensively tonight.

[Tedballgame]

I hope the ump calls those balls six inches outside strikes in the top of the inning like he is calling them in the bottom.

[vegasbob]

Nunez, Kinsler and Leon all fail in the 8th to move the line. So it's up to 4 out Kimbrel to save it. Where was Holt for Kinsler and Swihart for Leon ?? Why does Nunez take strike 2 (marginal call) and swing at ball 4?

[a700hitter]

They didn’t but I would have said no; he’s been too good defensively tonight.

If there had been a base runner or 2, I would have gone for the PHer.

[Carbo-Diem]

Kimbrel 9th- 2 walks, two 3-2 counts followed by a strikeout, one double and a fly out.
