They got a three run lead now that should be enough to pitch over a lead-off runner on second. Bullpen has to step up and avoid blowing it twice in two innings.

Let Hendriks get the 10th

I agree, even when Hendricks is prone to giving up HRs, I'd rather see him in the 10th than Ruiz. LH doesn't walk batters, Ruiz does.

The sox can't draft or develop players though. 

Watch it. Parkman might think you are serious

So strange. Never seen Hendriks give up an opposite field home run in a key situation.

(I DO NOT TRUST LIAM HENDRIKS IN A PLAYOFF GAME.)

I don't trust him either.

I see why Billy Beane didn't care about resigning him.

Ruiz in....gross

Ruiz.  For fuck’s sake just get outs. 

It's Ruiz why Tony ?

there's guys i'd trust more in this scenario, like most of the other guys that haven't thrown in the pen.

Sad stat

What is more sad?

Engel 5 HRs, 45 AB
Yoan 5 HRs, 279 AB

Ruiz couldn't throw a strike yesterday and we're asking him to close out a game? Ugh. 

He needs to throw STRIKES

Why not Burr?

Shows you how much this game means to TLR. 

And here we go with a hanging slider. I really don’t get this at all

Already in trouble 

Prove me wrong Ruiz

where is Burr

Yeah, not digging this move at all

tying run at the plate just like that

Don't you dare fuck us Ruiz. Don't you fuck us.

Why tony!? 

Yeah this isn't gonna go well. Tying run up in Mullins. 

2 pitches and Ruiz is already in danger of letting the Orioles walk it off. Tony is going to have another loss on him.
