NL baseball everyone! What a joke.

Wrigley is a joke.

You don't see that every day. Strikeout offense!

Does Baez ever not swing for the fences? Just watching his violent swing tires me out.

Richard I love you man but do us a solid here.

With Hammel tomorrow this might be a big workload for the next two days for the bullpen.

Hendricks already done.

Can't keep falling behind guys.

Looks too close to challenge.

Fangraphs has an article today that said no pitcher in baseball saw their numbers drop more the third time through the order than Hendricks this year. Expect a quick hook by Maddon.

QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Oct 20, 2015 -> 07:53 PM) Wow the pitcher batting is so exciting let me tell you. But extra strategy! And when they get that super rare hit it's so exciting and unexpected!

Jesus Christ you don't have to b**** about every ball.

Cue more b****ing about the umps after the game from Cub fans regardless of result.

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 20, 2015 -> 07:34 PM) They just seem so much more focused at the plate at home Funny because more than halfway through the season they were last in runs/game at home in the MLB and it wasn't even close (yes even compared to us). Then August came and everything changed.

DeGrom not locating well.

Coors Field East

This is a very key inning to keep the crowd deflated.

That was almost a disaster by Schwarber.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 20, 2015 -> 06:39 PM) Chris Archer and Longoria not having the worst season of his career could also explain that. That just supports the idea that managers can only do so much, but to your point they also had Price for half the season last year, and Longoria and Archer weren't far off from their 2014 production. OPS+ for Longoria: 2014: 107 2015: 111 ERA+ for Archer: 2014: 112 2015: 122 (he had a very poor end of the season)

Boss just told me he couldn't imagine not supporting a team from your city (he's not really a baseball fan). Again, are Yankees fans being held to the same standard right now?

5-2 now, game isn't over yet.

This is the same Royals team that the Sox demolished in a 3-game sweep not too long ago, I wouldn't count out anybody in this sport.

I was at Game 2 of the 2005 World Series (for free though, grandfather got me tickets), and it was awesome enough that I could easily justify spending $1000 on a ticket for another one, and I'm not Mr. Moneybags or anything, and I'm almost always on the "staying home and watching the game on TV is better than being there live" side. EDIT: On second thought, I'm biased because that game was all kinds of awesome. If I spent $1000 only to have the Sox put up a stinker I'd be full of regret. Hmmm...

4 pitches in and it's already 2-0 Royals.
