Why can't someone hit the ump with a backswing? ?

Sox should be able to come back against Minor. Let’s get some runs boys

Well, he is the 1 L in that 22-1 streak against LHP...actually 23-1 counting Jesus Luzardo and the A’s in the post-season.

Some pitchers just have that extra confidence against certain franchises.  Nothing new.

When you’re pitching to a tea cup strike zone it becomes easier for the hitters.

 I'm not saying you're wrong but he's due for a bad start.

Rodon has been a bit of a hothead in the past. I wouldn't be shocked if he finishes this inning, he has a few choice words for the ump and gets tossed.

Gotta be quicker on that turn

Is La Russa ever gonna come out and defend his players or is he afraid he might get a heart attack?

Isn't this the manager who yanked out and threw third base in protest once?

Once again the ump behind HP is brutal.

Seriously unwatchable! 

Madrigal just doesn’t have the type of arm to complete that DP.

Of course, 75% of 2B don’t either, which is why most are limited to that position.

Every pop up I hold breath

Have you seen him walk recently?  About the only thing he's yanking out is his teeth.

Didn’t really look like a slow turn to me, I don’t think most 2Bs turn that.

Rodon gives up way too many SB’s.  Easy advanced scouting call...run at will.  Except Perez and Soler.

 

On the plus side, Burger 2/2 with another double. .233/881 ops.  But Lambert getting hit hard again.

Nomar Mazara 688 ops for Tigers ties it up in extras against Kimbrel, haha.

It's still early...we're playing 9 today...chip away boys!!

Whoa.. Los didn't say anything as he walked off. His maturity is showing.

Time to show some propensity to hit, now. This will be 5 innings of bullpen fun.

Sadly Ricky R would not have let this shit go down without getting thrown out...

 

Irriated that the pitcher out there getting fucked and no one going to do shit about it.

We score at least 4 tonight and I'll say 4+ so gotta hold them down for a few innings.

Plus we should never give up with a lefty on the mound.

Not enough sliders for Rodon tonight. All the damage has been on fastballs.
