10/17 ALCS game 4

[redsoxrules]

Not surprised by these turns of event. Porcello is not consistent

[Maxbialystock]

Every pitch is up. Very bad by porcello when we needed him to give us at least 5 innings.

 

Not so. In fact, both of Reddick’s hits Have been off low pitches.

[Station 13]

This offense has to hit morton right now. We need that lead back.

 

he is goneee

[Maxbialystock]

You also have a huge question mark for tomorrow in either ERod or Price on short rest. Need Porcello to give some innings.

 

ERod is not on short rest.

[vegasbob]

I thought he was suppose to? Stomach issues keeping him away?

 

Already been moved back to Game 6, which looks somewhat necessary. Got to erase the first 3 innings and start again. JDM needs to show up next time around

[bosoxmal]

How bad does Porcello have to be before they get him the hell out of there?

[Station 13]

Porcello made bad pitches to Springer, he ambush him both times. He needs to carefully throw his shits

[jung]

Rick is operating on pure luck. Everything is flat and up. The Astros won't miss many of those. Oh wait, they haven't missed them.

 

Be interesting to see how far Cora wants to push this. If we don't score in the top of the inning, I just don't think he can afford to send rick out there again despite the consequences. Bullpen was going to catch up to us one way or the other. it didn't catch up the one way but it is catching up to us the other way. Gotta' try to grind it out now.

[Slasher9]

Terrible swing by holt

[illinoisredsox]

ERod is not on short rest.

 

Okay “in either ERod (or Price on short rest)”

[Maxbialystock]

How bad does Porcello have to be before they get him the hell out of there?

 

With ERod starting, no long reliever.

[Station 13]

Astros has done nearly all their damage with 2 outs.

[TylerD]

Already been moved back to Game 6, which looks somewhat necessary. Got to erase the first 3 innings and start again. JDM needs to show up next time around

 

Well that sucks. Is he doing a bullpen session tonight?

[Maxbialystock]

You also have a huge question mark for tomorrow in either ERod or Price on short rest. Need Porcello to give some innings.

 

FWIW, I agree with rationale for leaving Porcello in.

[jung]

I actually think Cora is going to send rick back out there.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

We're getting all the help you could want from the umpires.

[Station 13]

I don't think JBJ ever envisioned seeing so many 100 MPH hurlers.

[TylerD]

We are getting some big breaks.

[TylerD]

f*** sakes. He’s out anyway. Idiot.

[TylerD]

We're getting all the help you could want from the umpires.

 

Yes we are. And still not winning.

[Station 13]

What was a hanger for Betts

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Do these f'ing announcers have stock in the Astros' Corporation or are they both sleeping with Nolan Ryan?

[illinoisredsox]

f*** sakes. He’s out anyway. Idiot.

 

What a throw. Absolutely perfect. Sometimes the other team makes plays.

[d-money]

Can we get a shutout inning? Pitching has been f***ing shaky.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I actually think Cora is going to send rick back out there.

 

Why not? The SOX only have 3 trustworthy relievers.

[d-money]

This offense has to win us the game.

[Station 13]

Why not? The SOX only have 3 trustworthy relievers.

 

Name them!

[d-money]

Cora is trying very hard to squeeze 5 innings from porcello.

[TylerD]

Can we please get him out of the game now??????? f***

[Jason33]

That was stupid taking the bat out of Betts hands. JBJ doesn’t steal a lot of bases even though he’s fast. Cora isn’t making smart moves to me. I can’t believe he’s still leaving Porcello in there. He’s apparently not watching the first game we are.
