TLR is obsessive on hitting righty’s against lefty’s no matter what. Sheets is on a roll and have to go with him regardless when we need a long ball as well.

Lefties have to be lucky against that guy, but he will walk you if you let him. Goodwin didn’t let him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodwin didn’t let him. Have to be willing to stand there and do nothing. That's pretty hard to do even when every cell in your brain is telling you he just came up and in so now he's going low and away with a slider which usually aren't strikes. Then if he throws the fastball right down the middle you get the WTF why did he just stand there ? And since it was a 2-2 count even if you hold up then you have to do it again.

But you need to put up to hot dog like you do He has a silver slugger and a batting title in back to back seasons as well as back to back playoff seasons once this one is done. How is that not "putting up?" Edited July 4, 2021 by soxfan49 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinch hit Hamilton for Collins to lead off the inning Collins. Probably decided not to risk Grandal running the bases with a calf injury if he took a walk or got a hit. Plus if the Sox did tie it up with or without him PH he'd have to catch too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan of Steel Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 What a disappointing series. The only silver linings are that Cleveland lost and Sheets/Burger both looked really good. But with Cleveland struggling, it was a golden opportunity to really put our foot on the gas and open the gap and we missed it. And what's even more frustrating is that this was a completely winnable series, hell, a sweepable series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More tough times are ahead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tray Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Should have won but for a couple of untimely double plays and a defensive lapse by Burger who should have been covering third on a grounder hit right to TA. Hopefully Moncada is back tomorrow. Not sure about Grandal but the sooner he is back the better as well. Burger looks like prime trade bait. Well done son.
