That was just a nice bunt. Nothing could be done there with Pedroia playing near second base. I hate shifts. If Pedroia is playing straight up, he gets there easily for the flip.
Finally back live after DVRing through what I missed. Buch was competitive. He just made the mistake of letting Longo get him.
Morales scares me here. Just get 3 outs and then get get a run.
Ellsbury is a great weapon on the bases. We have never had anyone close to him. Crisp's spped was close, but he didn't get on base enough and I don't think that he has Ells judgment on the bases. He makes things happen.
He stayed with Price way too long. If the Rays lose this game, it's pretty much over for them, and he let his starter get whacked around for 6 runs. That's just stupid when you have an off day tomorrow.
There no reason to risk Lackey blowing the lead. Go get the lefty, Breslow. There's an off day tomorrow. We need to lock this game down. Go to Tazawa in the 7th and Koji for 2 innings.
