06/10 Texas Rangers Vs Boston Red Sox

[FredLynn]

My son is at the age where he now tries to sneak downstairs after bedtime to watch the Sox.

 

I try to sneak upstairs to avoid it when the game is on nowadays.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Chris Sale for closer!!!!

 

Years ago it wasn't unusual for the starter to be the closer. It happened because the guy on the mound pitched a complete game.

Haha same here

[d-money]

Offense once again missing.

[Jasonbay44]

3 more outs please

[mvp 78]

Nice quick game so far!

[mvp 78]

Ban games over 2.5 hours!

[mvp 78]

Since Sale joined the Red Sox in 2017, he now has 37 games with 10+ strikeouts, tied with Scherzer for most in the majors in that time.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Another example of a pitcher's W/L record telling nothing about a pitcher's overall performance. The SOX best pitcher has their worst W/L record so far this year.

[Station 13]

strange Betts can't destroy those pitches

[Station 13]

Seriously.

All I can say to that is Woo-WOO!

Come the f*** on Barnes

[Station 13]

Barnes is trash

[Tedballgame]

Barnes about to blow a great outing by Sale.

[d-money]

f*** barnes!!!! This guy should not be closing games.

[a700hitter]

Barnes about to blow a great outing by Sale.

Pig pen at work again.

[moonslav59]

Big time game for Barnes.

 

GET IT DONE!!!!

[d-money]

Get an out you piece of s***.

[mvp 78]

Jfc

[Tedballgame]

That stinking Barnes. He sucks. I have always said he can't be a closer.

[Jasonbay44]

Another blown save

[moonslav59]

omg!

[Tedballgame]

Kimbrel.

[d-money]

That was so f***ing predictable!!!!! This team doesn’t even have a f***ing closer.

[Tedballgame]

Barnes is wetting his pants out there.

[a700hitter]

He's an 8th inning guy. He's not reliable in the 9th.

[moonslav59]

Game is not over, but this is an ugly pattern we've fallen into and can't seem to get out of.

[d-money]

The season from hell continues with this team.
