Throw strikes you clown. 

[moonslav59]

All I can say is, "Wow!"

Fantastic win! (Okay, I said more...)

[FredLynn]

Great game 

 

[iortiz]

Crochet and Chappy. Seems fitting.

Sure but the way Cora managed this was magnificent and this is coming from someone who has been very vocal about Cora. 

[iortiz]

I see our guys feasting off Rodon. He’s massively overrated.

I say it's a must win for the Sox tomorrow because the Yankems will have a big advantage if it goes 3.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

Spike must be embarrassed now about his movie when he wore a Dodgers jersey and everybody called him Mookie.

[Oscars]

Great pitching with a couple of clutch hits.

 

[d-money]

Need to hope this powder puff offense explodes tomorrow.

He still found a way to get Yoshida into the game at just the right time.

Bregman is such a force.

These guys like Sogard, Narvaez and Eaton have done just enough, all year long.

Kudos to Cora and Brez and of course the players from the top to the bottom of the 40 man roster, which was more like a 60 man roster.

Really need to find a way and exploded offensively. We are facing Gil most likely in game 3. He looked like Cy Gil against us.

Chapman 96 MPH with no one on base.

Chapman 100-101 MPH with bases loaded.

It worked out  but I’d have brought in Whitlock for the righties in the 9th

The Yanks will only be pitching a rookie from Massachusetts... who went to college in Boston... in a loser-go-home showdown... in the Bronx, New York. 

He's already taking valium.

Depends a lot on run differential and fWar totals

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I doubt Chappy will be available tomorrow, but Whitlock will be available for 2 innings tomorrow. Also, the rest of the Sox BP should be well rested.

Just need 5 good innings from Bello.

Don’t agree.  He’s had a winning formula all year with Whitlock and Chappy.  He deviated for whatever reason and got really lucky. Bases loaded no one out.   Got really lucky 

[mvp 78]

Pitching wins championships. See how Bello holds up tomorrow.

Ok, thanks -- that made me laugh -- after almost having a coronary watching Chappy morph into 2018 Kimbrel.

All games are decided by the run differential.
