  1. Up to Ottavino to be the--what's that expressions?--good Ottavino and bad to the Astros.
  2. If they were cheating, they would have scored a bunch in the first inning.
  3. Reread mine. I was agreeing with you.
  4. It could be his control tonight, or it could be Sale doesn't want to challenge the Astros hitters. He is throwing one heckuva lot of fastballs. The radical shift worked perfectly--for Alvarez. Come to think of it, it also worked well for Arozarena when he stole home. Devers couldn't even see 3b from where he was positioned.
  5. You're crazy if you don't miss Iggy. He was terrific in the few games he played. A real shot in the arm.
  6. This is a seven games series, so I think Cora is hoping Sale can give him at least one more inning without letting the Astros back in the game.
  7. Three runs despite two really awful K's by Verdugo and Arroyo.
  8. He was last time, but this time he got the ever popular hanging curve.
  9. Renfroe comes thru bigtime! Again on that big curve, just like Kike did.
  10. What are the conferencing for? Renfroe is their easy out.
  11. So just maybe Altuve ain't the world's greatest living second baseman. Boy, did we get lucky.
  12. What we absolutely do not need now is a third GIDP. JDM, please note.
  13. Schwarber looking useless in 2 at bats. That was another GIDP, but Kike had already come home.
  14. Kike hasn't cooled off much. Wow!!!!!!!!!
  15. This absolutely is not the good Sale. Nevertheless, 2 innings and 1 run is not too shabby--and not luck. Yes, bases loaded, but he then K'd Altuve, and got Brantley on a soft shot that Kike was able to run in on and grab.
  16. Saved by the Kike!!!!!! Tremendous body control and keeping that glove in just the right place.
  17. Great K! Really needed that!!!
  18. For whatever reason, Sale is mostly staying away from the changeup.
  19. This is last week's Sale.
  20. Another hard hit ball off a sinker.
  21. That slider was way out side and still hit hard.
  22. Funny thing, but Valdez is basically just throwing a curve and a sinker, two pitches, without much control, and he's thrown two scoreless innings despite two walks and 3 Sox singles. That said, the Sox have hit nothing hard. The Astros have hit Sale hard, but only have the one hit, the one walk, and one wild pitch, and the one sac fly for a run.
  23. Two GIDP's in 2 innings. Easy GIDP's. Valdez is throwing 50% strikes, but he has our guys fooled.
  24. Devers and Verdugo both single going to LF.
  25. 2017 is ancient history. September 2021 Sale is the best we can hope for.
