Huge advantage for the Dodgers from here forward. Sox have Walden and Neck Tat left in the pen; not great choices and the bad guys have 3-4-5 coming up.
I’ll say it again; the Dodgers are really good at fouling off tough pitches. You may get them eventually, but they are going to make you work to do it.
Ryu is a damn good pitcher. You’ll note his ERA coming in was sub 2.00. I don’t care what league you’re in, that’s dealing and he’s been doing it all year.
Joe Morgan? You’ve got to be kidding me. His analysis came down to no hitter ever got a base hit on anything other than a mistake by the pitcher, except if you played for the Big Red Machine.
Miller was excellent; I still remember the couple years he spent as the Red Sox radio guy.
Beat me to it. I was figuring 70 games would mean 14-15 starts, or 6+ per start; he was averaging about 5 2/3 with the O’s so it could be tight, especially if one of the main 4 miss any time.
