Sox are 2 hitting a pitcher, Boyd, who threw over 50 in the first two innings. With the Mets lead and now Holt's injury, this game really needs to be won at the bat.
We'll have to see the condition of Holt's leg. I though it maybe was a spiking but didn't see any blood. So does the contest between a 2Bman, SP and LH reliever priority change for Dombrowski with the deadline 11 days out ?
Now you pay for the 3 man bench, actually 2 since you need to save Swihart at catcher. I have never been and will never be a David Price fan. I believe he is exceptionally stupid.
It didn't matter in the end, but why didn't Pearce go to third as Martinez was being thrown out at home. He could have waited til the throw was made , knowing the catcher had to tag JDM. Just another situational move.
