I don't hate them for the simple reason that the Yankees and Red Sox are one of the best rivalries in major American sports despite the Yankees having the bigger fan base, attendance, tv audience, and $$$$. If they stink all the time, no point in the rivalry. Historically they've had the upper hand (27 WS), but in the JH era the Sox have been a lot better. This year the 2 teams are just about even steven and that makes winning 3 of 4 at Yankee Stadium in late August all the more enjoyable. Well maybe not when Duran K's yet again. Boy, do we need Abreu back in RF, Rafaela in CF, and Anthony in LF. Duran needs some R&R. About a week or 2 should do.
-
Wrong again.
-
Sox 3 best hitters go down in a row, 2 with K's. Hard to see a rally in the 9th.
-
Sure was. And Buehler just might have found a niche. That was a sweet pitch for strike 3 and out of the inning against the top of the Yankees order. I would be tempted to send him back out for the 8th.
-
Anthony is discipline too, just not as experienced.
-
I'm so glad Gonzalez is leading off. He just struck out on 3 pitches, and with luck--a rally in 7th or 8th inning, we could see him do that again. He is in a decaying orbit.
-
Duran stinks when it counts, If he's still around next year, Breslow is making a mistake. With the bases loaded he looked at 3 called strikes, all of them in the strike zone.
-
Now Story gets a BB on the 9th pitch. Bases loaded, Rodin. That said, I think this game is still very much a longshot, especially with Eaton at bat and 2 outs.
-
When Rodon is throwing low pitches, our batters are in trouble.
-
That's the thing about Anthony. When it's a pitch to hit, he usually makes good contact. Tough break for Story. That was also well hit.
-
Two outstanding at bats by Gonzalez and Bregman. Rodon ain't seeing the 7th.
-
Nobody else got him either. Maybe the Twin were asking for too much,
-
Meh. I'm not sure I want a CBO whom other CBO's love in July, which is a very tough month for making good deals. Plus this is just his second year as CBO, so of course he's going to be cautious. On the other hand, Breslow brought in Crochet, Bregman, Chapman, and Narvaez last winter. That's the best four in one winter I ever heard of for the Sox.
-
Bernardino looks pretty good. 2 outs in 9 pitches and out of the inning.
-
Hope is a wonderful thing--or did you miss that movie?
-
So May makes it to the 5th inning giving up 5 which actually could have been. For most of that he was pitching batting practice.
-
Well said.
-
Rodon is pitching well, just like Fried did. 3 dingers and 5 runs for the Yankees. Ump screwed Judge on that at bat.
-
Narvaez out by a mile on 3b to 2b to 1b GIDP.
-
Grounder by Rafaela demonstrates yet again the value of pitching low, which May is reluctant to do.
-
That's why I'm tracking his pitches. Wed was an off day, but I think the Sox bullpen is a little tired.
-
Good at bat by Duran. Man on.
-
He gets the K on a low pitch!! Imagine that. The batter's right, but as already noted Anthony got screwed on 2 calls in his first at bat. Both below the zone.
-
My goodness does May like the middle of the strike zone.
