    It should be a team error if nothing else. But then general rule is if the fielder doesn’t touch a ball like that, it’s a hit.
  2. illinoisredsox
    I know, it just looked like he got a little close. You can back someone up a little further away.
  3. illinoisredsox
    Schwarber blew that but why was Devers even in the area?
  4. illinoisredsox
    I’m guessing Plawecki next starts when the Sox have either clinched a spot or have been eliminated. He’ll probably get in the game tonight as part of a blow out.
  5. illinoisredsox
    Given that good Cole is on the mound and the recent trend of Sox hitters not to score when EO is on the mound, I suspect you are right.
  6. illinoisredsox
    Looked like some sort of chest injury; it’s not something to joke about. It could seriously affect this team going forward.
  7. illinoisredsox
    Even the worst teams in baseball win 1/3 of their games. The Sox offense has gone virtually nothing the last 3 innings and other than JDs homer (which barely made it out), nothing since the 2nd.
  8. illinoisredsox
    Whitlock getting hurt may be the biggest issue out of that inning.
  9. illinoisredsox
    One of those BP arms came out with an injury, so maybe only 2.
  10. illinoisredsox
    Appeared to be a chest injury arm side; maybe pulled something.
  11. illinoisredsox
    Orioles have hitters; other than Means, they have no pitchers.
  12. illinoisredsox
    Ruh-roh Whitlock taken out with an injury.
  13. illinoisredsox
    JD did not strike out. The ump gave the pitcher a strikeout. That ball was 4 or 5 inches outside. At the very least he should have been at a 3-2 count.
  14. illinoisredsox
    Not lately; they haven’t been scoring while he’s on the mound his last 4 or 5 starts. They’ve put up some runs after he’s been out of the game, but not while he’s been on the hill.
  15. illinoisredsox
    He was.
  16. illinoisredsox
    There was one guy in the ballpark who didn’t think that was strike 3 to Vazquez. Miller is not having a good day back there.
  17. illinoisredsox
    I know; I’m just saying he normally would throw today so it wouldn’t be a real stretch to use him today.
  18. illinoisredsox
    I assume today is his throw day; he’ll just do it in a game instead. If he’s got his stuff, he could go 2.
  19. illinoisredsox
    I’d go one more with him; the bottom of the O’s line-up is due up. I don’t think I’d let him face Mullins though.
  20. illinoisredsox
    It was just about 1 year after he was brought up that he started this hot streak. Could be that it just took him that long to figure it out. Not everyone gets it right away.
  21. illinoisredsox
    He was released by the Angels on September 3rd, so no, there was nothing Bloom could have done.

    The major league strike zone defined as: The official strike zone is the area over home plate from the midpoint between the batters shoulders and the top of the uniform pants - when the batter is in his stance and prepared to swing at a pitched ball - and a point just below the kneecap. That top part sounds like a real PITA for an ump to figure out. Bottom of shoulder or armpits or something sounds a lot more determinate. We have to remember that the rectangle only depicts the front edge of the plate. The real zone is a pentagonal prism between the above upper and lower limits. I certainly can see why some of the breaking balls just above the top of the zone could drop over the plate in the zone and look high per the rectangle. I suppose a big breaking slider could so it as well.

    The Yankees extra game is of no concern; the Sox have 3 games left with the Evil Empire. They control their own destiny against the Yankees.
  24. illinoisredsox
    I remember. I’m 62 (oops, make that 63 now). But they don’t do it any more.
  25. illinoisredsox
    You have a point.
