6/10 SOX @ Yankems 7:35PM ET

[d-money]

Houck has been falling behind on the count.

[d-money]

This dude is wild. Not throwing enough strikes.

[Jasonbay44]

Nor does Jansen. Well, I did see him glance over at a guy on 1st base during a conference on the mound.

 

A lot of closers are really bad at watching runners. Craig Kimbrel and Papelbon were also very bad at watching runners.

 

Koji on the other hand was very good at watching them.

[vegasbob]

I think this is Houck's final inning. If he gets Calhoun now, it will be a very good 6 innings in a key game.

 

But if he gives up a bandbox cheap HR to Willie, he needs to rethink his pitch location. McGuire wake up

He’s thrown 81 pitches, 53 strikes and only has 1 walk

[Tedballgame]

Little League homer puts the Skanks ahead.

[Jasonbay44]

f***ing dammit Houck. Really? Willie Calhoun?

[d-money]

Just a bad pitch low in the strikezone.

Willie Calhoun vs Tanner Houck

#RepBX*

 

IT'S A UNICORN

 

Home Run (5)

 

Exit velo: 98.3 mph

Launch angle: 19 deg

Proj. distance: 362 ft

 

This would have been a home run at Yankee Stadium and nowhere else.

 

BOS (1) @ NYY (2)

6th

[Maxbialystock]

Am I wrong or does Houck not in fact have a changeup?

[d-money]

Gotta get something going offensively. 9 outs left.

[Tedballgame]

Still a good outing by Houck.

[wyo-sox]

If someone had told me Houck could get through six inning and give up two runs... I'd take that. We need more than 1 run to win games.

Also at Fenway if it's just inside the Pesky Pole.

I agree. And the two homers he gave up were pretty cheap

[vegasbob]

Yankee Stadium has always been a cheap shot HR to RF. Maybe one of our LH hitters can mimic Willie

[Jasonbay44]

Also at Fenway if it's just inside the Pesky Pole.

 

It’s based on where the ball was hit. Calhouns fly ball is a fly out at Fenway.

[wyo-sox]

The field is just as shallow for our hitters as it is for theirs.

[Jasonbay44]

Is it just me or does Fox seem to come back from commercial breaks late a lot?

[wyo-sox]

It's not just you.

Fine. Last time I checked the Sox are allowed to get cheap home runs at Yankee Stadium, so shame on them for not getting them if they're so easy.

[Jasonbay44]

It's not just you.

 

They’re easily my least favorite national broadcast. I’d even rather have ESPN.

[Jasonbay44]

This is a hell of a battle by Yoshida

[wyo-sox]

quite an at bat...

[vegasbob]

But it wasn't a Home Run, so now Turner needs to get one, please

[Tedballgame]

Great AB by Yoshida.

[Jasonbay44]

Come on Devers

[Tedballgame]

Raffy needs to do it again.

[Maxbialystock]

Great AB by Yoshida.

 

Absolutely!

[vegasbob]

OK, If they leave Peralta at almost 30 pitches for Devers then, Raffy really does need to deliver. Yoshi's amazing AB sets up a great chance. Team is 0-4 with RISP

 

Nice, Dude, had to go chopping. 1-11 with man/men on , 0-5 with RISP.
