    No question. And I pounced on that immediately and ripped Wacha apart. Clearly, he didn't have his best stuff tonight. But then he came back with four more innings and just 1 run. To me that's gutsy.
  2. Maxbialystock
    That is the first time in about a thousand years I've seen a Sox pitcher keep working the bottom of the zone and getting a nice K in 6 pitches.

    Christian Arroyo has been a one man wrecking crew tonight, the polar opposite of just 4 days ago when he had 3 hits, 3 rbi's, and great defense at SS. Tonight: lousy defense, even worse hitting. Correction: above overlooks the fact that Arroyo's GIDP was in fact a hard hit line drive straight to the second baseman, who flipped to 2b for the 2d out.
  4. Maxbialystock
    He's even with JDM and Bogey in RBI's. 31.

    Jays have the 10th ranked ERA in the AL, and we are seeing that now.
  6. Maxbialystock
    I'm beginning to believe that Story decides to swing before the pitch is thrown. He swung at 5 straight pitches out of the zone.
  7. Maxbialystock
    He was terrible with Detroit. But man does he look good with the Sox this year. 23.1 innings, 2 freaking runs.
  8. Maxbialystock
    Schreiber is one heckuva reliever. I mean he was throwing nasty stuff. If closer is important, he's the best choice, and no one else comes close.
  9. Maxbialystock
    Meh. Schreiber has been pretty good, and that was a scratch hit by the Great Guerrero.
  10. Maxbialystock
    Guerrero beats out that slow roller easily. Verdugo would have watched it for awhile and then been out.
  11. Maxbialystock
    JDM ain't JDM.

    One more time. Refsnyder's dinger doesn't tie the game if Wacha doesn't pitch his guts out for 4 innings after that awful 1st. Wacha done good tonight simply because he didn't quit.
  13. Maxbialystock
    Refsnyder da man!!!
  14. Maxbialystock
    I have to say this one more time. Everyone complains about Cordero's play at 1b, which is, I agree, not so hot. But I really don't care when he is hitting because you don't actually need a great fielder at 1b very often.
  15. Maxbialystock
    But 4 days ago I thought he was terrific at SS.
  16. Maxbialystock
    Last night, no big deal. Tonight, very big deal.
  17. Maxbialystock
    Brasier gets his man!!! On to the 7th.
  18. Maxbialystock
    I do agree with your "weird game" comment.
  19. Maxbialystock
    I was going to quote my negative comments, but I'll quote you instead. Wacha gave up 3 runs in the 1st, and I went ballistic. He's now gone 4 more innings giving up 1 run. He has battled back. He has showed some grit, and in a big game like this that gets major points with me. I might add the defensive outfield stinks. Refsnyder not so bad, but the other two like to, what's that word?--lollygaggle. Early in the Jays game one of their guys hit a single to right center and slowed down going to 1b until he saw how Arroyo was approaching that ball with the utmost caution and minimum aggressiveness. So he took 2b and later scored. The Sox have had some hard hit shots caught, but I care about results--like they are (no surprise here) 0 for 5 with RISP. Indeed, the Jays defense looks very professional, very engaged, and a whole lot faster than our Sox defense.
  20. Maxbialystock
    Tonight it sure looks as though Jays are hitting away from the shifts and the Sox are hitting into them.
  21. Maxbialystock
    Nevertheless, the Sox are 2d in the AL in runs scored. So it's not like their offense is bleeding to death.
  22. Maxbialystock
    Line drive right to Refsnyder for 3d out.
  23. Maxbialystock
    Game thread rules. Some whining should be allowed. Yes, I agree Wacha was a great acquisition and has done very well for the Sox this season. But tonight so far he is no better than Seabold was last night.
  24. Maxbialystock
    3d walk by Story.
  25. Maxbialystock
    Coming into this game, the Sox had scored the 2d most runs in the AL. They also have the 3d best OPS in the AL. So it can't all be Story.
