5 hours ago5 hr Gonna need another good offensive performance. Hopefully Houser can at least get into the 5th inning without too much damage.Same lineup as last night but Romo is 9th and Kelenic 7th. Odds don't like Sox in this one. Giants are -115.

Giants are -115.Houser is pitching for the Giants. Hudson is opening for tbe Sox .Can't imagine him going longer than an inning or 2. Fedde will follow him. Houser got off to a rocky start but 2-0 in his last 2 starts giving up just 3 runs in 11 2/3 innings against the Dodgers and A's, 2 pretty good lineups.Fedde is 2-1 in 3 career stsrts against the Giants with a 1.69 ERA. The Sox have won 4 of the last 5 games he has pitched but he has no wins. Hicks has a strained lat and Leasure is back.

4 hours ago4 hr On the season, Houser has allowed a 1.100+ OPS to lefties and a .958 OPS at Oracle.But he's been much better in May (.591 OPS against in 3 starts) though a .167 BABIP suggests some luck there. He's also been better in day games than night games.He's got a higher walk rate and lower K rate compared to his time as a Sox, so there should be pitches to hit.Sheets hit one into the Cove off him, would be fun to see Mune or Montgomery do the same.
4 hours ago4 hr I just am not a fan of putting one of your best relievers as an opener. Would rather have Newcomb since he might actually be able to go 3 innings if needed

3 hours ago3 hr Don't like Hudson being used as an opener or Venable making it clear that Dominguez is the Closer....but I'm not the Manager so it is what it is.

2 hours ago2 hr Author I've been fooled on swings numerous times this series. Thought that was hit much better. Edited 2 hours ago2 hr by chitownsportsfan
2 hours ago2 hr Marquette basketball coach Al McGuire used to always say, “The best thing about freshmen is they become sophomores.”That’s how I feel about Antonnaci’s defense in left field.
