Turned it on just in time to see the Taylor oppo 2 run taco !

Sox 8-4 on Friday Night All Access.

I think they get positioned according to the batted ball metrics. Now that depends on the pitch too and runners on base. You never know if a hitter's going to try to hit behind the runner or pull. You just play tendencies. So postioning can't ever be where you want it to be after the ball is hit. Hopefully more data helps as he continues to pitch and refine his pitch mix and command.

He's just a baby. He'll get it together.

I think John is an affable guy. Easy to get along with genuinely likes Stone's dry sense of humor.

Finally !! That 6 game losing streak really screwed their chances to avoid 100 loses.

Thats still a pretty damn good OBP , 20 of 45. Thats why you see him look at so many on 3-2. .444444

You dont know the story behind the barking ?

7 straight appearances giving up runs. Eats up innings was good for a while after acquired but he seems fried. They need to bring someone else up.

3 lefties in a row smashing Alexander whi brought gasoline to the fire.

Why Alexander didnt throw the changeup with 2 strikes to the last 2 hitters is beyond me. FB hit for the 3 R HR Oppo by Cowser.

It would play up as a starter too . Needs more command to be a SP or RP.Doesnt help when the curve is so good like tonight that the ump cNt call the strikes low but definitely in the zine a few time .I mean perfect pitches called balls.

Burke pitched 4 innings after Gilbert's 1. 2 hits, 1 R ,1ER ,4 K , 4 BB , 1HBP. ERA now 4.29 . Ump score card won't be good.

Teel and Sosa havent touched Bradish yet.One of them needs to now

Fletch doubles to RCF gap instead.

Fletcher just missed the HR barely went foul.

This ump has no idea how Burke's curve catches the zone.

Ump missed another easy strike . And Burke walks Jackson

Burke didnt get another strike 3 call. Just a perfect curve got all of the low inside corner 2 pitches later he gets the K.

Need runs Sox.

Almost had a near repeat of the 1st inning Tauchmand and Colson on 1 & 2 while Teel and Sosa K, only this time Mead also K's instead of an RBI single.

Burke missed his location RBi single for Jeremiah Jackson after looking pitiful on a curve and slider. 2 walks ahead of the Jackson single. 😐

K's are better than DP Fletcher.

11 game hit streak with Meidroth single.

All 4 Sox outs so far are K's.
