    Team totals are 8 and 9 respectively.

    Maybe we could save time and just have the lead off guy take first against our bull pen every time.

    I remembered hearing about it years ago. But the only way I could conceive of it happening is if the manager/coach is visiting the mound, leaves the pitching circle and then immediately goes back. Otherwise I can’t see a major league umpiring crew letting him get to the mound a second time.

    That’s the rule of a manager tries twice on one hitter, so I’m guessing it would be the same thing. Rule 5.10(l) says, in part In a case where a manager has made his first trip to the mound and then returns the second time to the mound in the same inning with the same pitcher in the game and the same batter at bat, after being warned by the umpire that he cannot return to the mound, the manager shall be removed from the game and the pitcher required to pitch to the batter until he is retired or gets on base. After the batter is retired, or becomes a base runner, then this pitcher must be removed from the game.

    Doubt the umps would permit it but if it happened, my guess is the pitcher would have to finish his minimum and the manager would be ejected.

    Sawamura let’s that drop it’s an easy DP with a chance at a TP. That said, he made the right play by catching it.
  7. illinoisredsox
    Jesus Christ, he’s giving you a bleeping out. Take it. They never bunted in Japan?

    Quantrill had a lot to do with that. He was really good.
  9. illinoisredsox
    Like I said, that second strike was the one he needed to drive. Quantrill almost teed it up for him.
  10. illinoisredsox
    Probably learned to do it in Milwaukee
  11. illinoisredsox
    Second strike is what killed him; that was his pitch to hit hard somewhere.
  12. illinoisredsox
    Quantrill has been very impressive today.
  13. illinoisredsox
    Agreed, plus it’s a day game after a night game. One explanation I can think of is maybe Plawecki’s still hurting a little after getting hit in the hand the other night and while he might be able to catch in a pinch, he really may need an extra day or two.
  14. illinoisredsox
    He’s done the job most of the time, but he doesn’t seem to have many clean innings.
  15. illinoisredsox
    Learn the rules; a pitcher has to face 3 hitters unless he ends the inning.
  16. illinoisredsox
    Got to get to the 9th first. Since Richards was warming, it probably will be Ottavino. Taylor will come in if Richards creates a mess.
  17. illinoisredsox
    Two things can be true at the same time. Allen was very good and the Sox hitters helped that along with a piss poor approach at the plate.
  18. illinoisredsox
    I had no issue with sending ERod back out. The pen has sucked and he’s pitched pretty well. I would not send him out for the 8th though.
  19. illinoisredsox
    Note to Sox hitters. See how he went with the pitch?
  20. illinoisredsox
    The Sox seem to have a lot of trouble with soft tossing lefties, don’t they.
  21. illinoisredsox
    And Arauz had to earn that walk with what, 7 or 8 foul balls?
  22. illinoisredsox
    Has nothing to do with control; it has everything to do with mindset. Sale goes 0-2 on a hitter and he goes after the hitter on the next pitch. ERod, on those rare occasions when he does go 0-2, will nibble and often as not, end up 2-2 or 3-2. Read that the immaculate inning is more rare than a no-hitter. There have been something like 315 no-hit games in major league history vs. 204 immaculate innings.
  23. illinoisredsox
    Prediction - ERod will never have an immaculate inning.
  24. illinoisredsox
    Don’t see a corresponding move; maybe they only had 39?
  25. illinoisredsox
    Some elk and wolves in Yellowstone disagree.
