Wendelken 9 k's thru 5.

Sox hitters taking walks tonight. Ricky Romero again. Wendelken back giving up hits.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ May 9, 2014 -> 06:08 PM) I don't like him because throwing hard is the ONLY thing I ever hear about him. I hear about Rodon's sick arsenal of plus pitches, I hear about Aiken's great control and being a lefty, and then I just hear that Kolek throws hard. That would be my concern too. Is he just a thrower that knows how to over-power high school kids, or does he have more than that? It would be unfortunate to take a high school pitcher at 3, and then he's a relief pitcher in Birmingham four years later. But the Sox have a great track record with pitching, so if they take him, I'd hope for the best. It just sucks there isn't a bat that they HAD to take. Just not this draft, unfortunately.

QUOTE (raBBit @ May 9, 2014 -> 05:25 PM) Supposedly Hahn was on Sports Talk Live yesterday. Anyone know if he was there in person or he phoned in? It would be hard for him to be there and at Beede's start. The Cell.

Sox are back to leading the AL in runs per game at 5.11 through about 22% of the schedule.

Tonight was Sale's 4th missed start. Sox are 1-3 in those games.

Hopefully the d-backs really enjoyed their day off in Chicago. And are still enjoying it.

4 hours

Hawk forgetting about McDowell, Ventura, Thomas, Fernandez, Alvarez, Bere. But whatever.

Beckham is getting drilled. Might as well have Leury pinch hit.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 8, 2014 -> 10:48 PM) Petricka's in...what a joke. I know it sucks, but really what other choice do they have?

Now pitching for the Sugarland Skeeters...

I'd like to Sierra in one of those Pharrell hats. Doppelganger.

Sox have never swept a season series against the Cubs. Still 52-46 all-time if they lose.

Good night

DFA...DFA...DFA.

43 pitches, 21 strikes, 22 balls. Love it.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 8, 2014 -> 10:30 PM) Ventura/Cooper treating this like it's a 5 run game. I honestly think they give away games when the series has been won. It's a losing mentality, but the pen has been overworked on top of it.

If the Sox get out of this, we win.
