Autumn Dreamin

Galanie single, Connor RBI single, and Antonacci RBI single in the 6th. Antonacci got thrown out trying to stretch for 2nd. Multi-hit games for all of the Sox boys and back to back crooked numbers for a 7-1 lead. McCullough done after 2.2 IP. The solo HR was his only baserunner, 1ER/1H, 0BB, 4K.

Smith done after 3 innings. 0R, 3H, 2BB, 4K. McCullough came on in relief and gave up a solo shot. Sox prospects chipping in for a rally to take the lead: RBI single for Connor, 2 RBI double and a SB for Antonacci for a 3-1 lead in the 5th. Clean second inning for McCullough.

50 hits allowed in the ALDS is the most the Yanks have allowed in any 4 game span this season. On the bright side, Dominguez has a 3.000 postseason OPS! Too bad they only bothered to find 1 AB for him.

Smith starting in AZ tonight

Turns out Vaughn was the piece holding the Brewers together?

Fan ad taken out in a Cleveland paper:

Priester starting Game 3

Batista getting some work in LIDOM after missing most of the season with an injury

So performative for absolutely no reason

And he swung on the next pitch for what should have been a K. Instead it's two on and a pitching change.

Looking forward to playoff crowd reactions to ABS challenges

Figured I'll do another catchall thread for this year's AFL and winter ball developments. As a reminder, the Sox prospects playing in Arizona: LHP Hagen Smith RHP Jarold Rosado RHP Carson Jacobs RHP Connor McCullough RHP Tyler Davis IF Sam Antonacci 1B Ryan Galanie OF Braden Montgomery OF Caden Connor Braden will be joining later in the season after getting back into game shape following a small foot fracture from a HBP. Most of these guys are fresh off of the Barons run to back to back Southern League titles. A couple have upcoming Rule 5 decisions. I'll also keep an eye out for guys getting winter ball reps in: Sosa's excellent LVBP results did seem to translate some to his MLB performance. Looks like he'll be back for this season, we'll see where on the IF he plays.

So happy for him man

Dumb bunt, but they still have life

Maybe if the game is on tape delay...not sure he can keep it clean enough for a broadcast otherwise 😅

Toronto bullpen might want to stop messing around lol

So cool for Yesavage. He started the year in A ball!

6 hits between Raleigh and Julio...0-28 for everyone else.

Kerry Carpenter came into the game 4-8 with 4 HR in his career vs. Kirby. Maybe should have walked him with first open and two outs?

Shohei vs. Sanchez: 0-3, 3K Colson vs. Sanchez:

Also there's a pretty high correlation between repeat outings in a series and worse performance for relievers. No reason to give the Cubs extra looks at their pen.
