Nashville now playing like the team that wasn't very good the last 30 games of the season.

Ok score on this PP and they're back in it.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 12:40 PM) Lol that is so pathetic. Yes, Eaton should have gotten it down his first two tries but he didn't and he looked horrible doing it so why would you ask him to do it again with 2 strikes? This is baseball 101 and it is quite sad that our manager doesn't understand that. It was puzzling that's for sure. Speed on the bases. Speed at bat. Got to let him hit after strike 2. And Abreu just crazy how bad he looked when it was pretty apparent they would be contend to walk him.

Stalberg of all people .

QUOTE (daa84 @ Apr 15, 2015 -> 05:51 PM) Wtf was that Pitiful is what it was . I was like where the hell is he going ?

I don't mind caught stealings unless its against a catcher with a gun . Micah needs to learn pitchers pick off moves. He's got a long way to go to really utilize his speed. Eaton makes a lot more baserunning mistakes than most would think he does. That trying to stretch a double into a triple with 2 outs is just wrong on so many levels. Never make the 3rd out at 3rd base is a base running rule because you're already in scoring position and probably will score on any hit because you get the huge jump with 2 outs. You have to trust your team mates behind you to get the job done. It's just Eaton trying to pad his triples stats and it's extremely stupid and selfish. You keep the inning alive and who knows maybe Cabrera hits a HR or gets a walk or hit and Abreu hits one out. It isn't unheard of for teams to have 2 out rallies.

Let's not forget the Abreu solo bomb !

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Apr 14, 2015 -> 08:02 AM) I'm not cut out to be a casino mogul :'( 7.5 HR's ? Should be in green. You can't be serious . Most pitchers would be pulled by the 3rd or 4th one.

Jennings, Duke, Robertson 8 of last 9 outs via K !

Very impressive stuff by the relief corp !

QUOTE (Dunt @ Apr 14, 2015 -> 06:39 PM) I'm fine with Eaton being aggressive there, you're already up 3. Anybody liking this Jennings trade as much as me? Nice to have two solid lefty options in the pen. You think 3 is a lot ? It's nothing. Rather be up by 4 or more keep the inning alive.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 14, 2015 -> 06:37 PM) wow can the Sox find a scrap heap pen guy that's actually decent???????????????? Scrap heap ? Didn't he have decent numbers with the Marlins? Just backwards was better at getting opposite handed guys out. Got him for Rienzo right ?

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 14, 2015 -> 06:33 PM) Not a fan, as with his speed a single scores him from 2nd Yea its not like a 3 run lead is huge. Take the double score on a hit. It's just fundamentally wrong.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 14, 2015 -> 06:29 PM) i've seen too many 3-1 popups today. No kidding . Either take the pitch or look to pull it. Neither Conor or Bonifacio looked to pull.

No reason at all to go for 3 there. Play the game right ! Never 3rd out at 3rd base . Selfish play by Eaton.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 14, 2015 -> 06:12 PM) If you haven't noticed, we are actually winning lol I went to it during Clevelands AB's knowing Q is golden.

NBA hardwood classics has playoffs between. Jordan /Pippen Bulls against Shaq/Penny Hardaway Orlando on now NBA channel.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 14, 2015 -> 05:39 PM) holy s*** he got hit in the face? Damn. Sorry to hear that. Yea looks like he got the tip of his glove on it and defelected it slightly to by his left cheek.

Hagadone sounds like something from Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter.

Way to pick em up Tyler.

Looks like McAllister's lost his release point.

At least Q is missing down and not up and over the middle of the plate.

Those Raburn RBI numbers against the Sox are crazy . 51 more against the Sox than against any other opponent.

Other teams make boneheaded plays too.
