Yup this was my fear after Eloy got hurt. Outside of 2-3 innings this lineup was absolutely silent.

Yeah this lineup ain't it.

It seems like he's always there to mess something up...and I say this as someone who has nothing against him.

The first hit was basically a come backer to him. It's not like he gave up anything hard hit outside of the Trout at bat.

Release Grandal? lmao

Yup this always happens to the Sox out west.

Madrigal and the ump fucked us

I just don't see how Madrigal graded out so well speed wise and defensively. He just looks awkward out there given his size.

Goddamit Madrigal.

I think close homers like that are automatic reviews.

I'm guessing Bummer has the 8th. If he gets into trouble I wouldn't oppose using Hendriks to get through Rendon and Upton.

Grandal remembered that Heuer can throw something besides a fastball.

When did Max Stassi become an offensive force?

It's pretty clear Stone didn't respect Ricky at all. He has to respect La Russa just because of who he is.

Yeah that would have been hard to overturn, but there's really no reason to save the challenge.

That made no sense TLR...you don't need a challenge after the 7th.

This has to be the tallest pitcher vs. shortest player matchup in baseball.

Heuer got screwed on a few borderline calls, but my god he got hit hard.

Hit hard, but right at Yoan.

I wonder why Lucas stopped throwing that nasty change from the first inning. I think I saw a few more that moved like that but nowhere near that type of horizontal movement.

Lucas would probably convince him to keep him in.

That's the right call TLR.

Yeah I don't know...don't fall asleep at the wheel Tony.

Big inning here. Gotta hand this game off to the pen with a lead.

He's had no issues against Ohtani so far, so he should at least get 1 batter.
