7/2 at A’s

[d-money]

Typical SOX west coast game. Very seldom are the wins easy, no matter who they play.

 

Wasted a good performance from ERod. Deserved the win.

[d-money]

This guy needs to mix his pitches a lot more.

[illinoisredsox]

Tie game. Barnes with one too many fastballs. Bullpen with two too many dingers.

 

Barnes didn’t get either of the first 2 pitches, both of which were closer than the one to Chavis in the top of the inning.

You could be right. I wasn't watching where the pitches went.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

How big now was that defensive play by X-man in the 2nd?

[d-money]

Takes awhile for this guy to get someone out.

[d-money]

Well here we go! Extra innings. Hope they can score in the 10th. Score!!!

[Nick]

It's guy's first HR this year....no one was worried about him hitting one out.

[illinoisredsox]

Takes awhile for this guy to get someone out.

 

He’d have been helped immensely if the strike zone from the top of the 9th was the same as the one in the bottom of the 9th.

[Nick]

If this was the seventh game of World Series, I'd pinch run for Chavis........Duran maybe?

[iortiz]

Two random HRs have this game tied man it’s not like our arms pitched bad.

 

Said that, we’ve got this.

 

Only One question, Can Chavis run? If he can’t he is literally useless.

Until we get robot umps this is just the normal unfortunately. Umps are inconsistent as all hell. Kimbrel seems to be adapting fine. Barnes lately hasn’t exactly been what he was when the season started.

If it was game 7 of the World Series, it would be a traditional extra innings game. These rules don’t apply in the postseason.

[TylerD]

Wow!!! Ok lead again. Let’s go!!

What? Different rules for World Series?

[iortiz]

Ottavino is coming to face the bottom of their lineup. Good!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Similar to hockey.

[d-money]

Whose gonna pitch here? Need to get that first out.

Need to get that first out.

[d-money]

Come on ottavino!!

[Nick]

if this was a tie game in extra innings, would u consider walking the first batter to set up double play?

[d-money]

Get somebody out!!

[TylerD]

Ugh. Man ! Please!!!!!!!! I want this win so bad.

[illinoisredsox]

if this was a tie game in extra innings, would u consider walking the first batter to set up double play?

 

No, because that puts the winning run on.

[d-money]

Our BP not getting it down thus far.

[d-money]

Ottavino cannot walk the hitter here.

[iortiz]

Whata DP lol wow!

[d-money]

This is a struggle for ottavino.

[TylerD]

Holy crap yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!! One more to go

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Great throw by Kike!
