RHP "Prince" Felix Hernandez (1-3, 5.20) vs RHP Big Dick Rick (2-3, 5.11)

 

After taking my last final and watching my big brother graduate, I would appreciate starting my summer off right watching another Sox launch party. Win. Dance. Repeat. x4

Felix has been demoted as his stuff has been diminished.

Lousy pitching by porcello to start the game.

 

Yes, but also rotten pitch calling by the great sandy Leon. Porcello has thrown almost all fast balls and cut fast balls. No changeups or curves. Very few sliders.

Also very few pitches low in the zone. That change for a single was mid zone on the outside edge.

 

I don’t think I’m being unfair to go after Leon because on another thread he was trumpeted as sort of a savior for the staff because he makes good pitchers great, ok pitchers good, etc

 

We have seen Porcello pitch well this year more than once, so just maybe Leon ain’t quite so great as claimed.

Note the contrast with Felix, who is using any array of breaking balls—effectively. And keeping the ball low.

 

Porcello,p is not effective when he keeps the ball up and Leon should know that.

Oh well. At least the starting pitching has once again turned it around, as they were advised to do a few weeks ago.
