This is so nerve wracking. I'd really love it if we could just put it out of reach early. Crooked number in the first and let Lackey cruise the rest of the way.
Because playoff baseball is the longest most excruciating thing to watch on the planet. The fortunes of either team can change dramatically with one pitch and the whole thing is so prolonged.
I was watching his Intentional Talk interview and he said he felt like a caged animal in St. Louis.
I predict he has a huge game. Wacha is going to leave a change up in the zone with runners on and it's going to land in the parking lot.
I, BornToRun, hereby decree that from this moment forward, John Lackey is to no longer be referred to as "John Lackey".
Instead, "John MOTHERf***ING Lackey" must be posted in its place.
Agreed. Wacha was far from dominant and I doubt that the cold New England weather will be of much help to him.
No guarantees, of course, but I give the advantage to John Motherf***ing Lackey.
I must say that UN? Mojo has carried this team. BTR Mojo became weak and flaccid at the worst moment and your white hot stream was there to save the day.
John Lackey wins on Wednesday and every single one of you who hated him from 2010-2012 has to ritualistically set yourself aflame in front of him during the post game interviews.
