Featured Replies

They're going low and away and then low and in with the breaking ball to Beni a lot. It's how they've pitched all our lefty hitters. We just can't adjust.

What the hell are they doing today? I've never seen so many strike 3 looking.

Facing a tough pitcher and are getting aced.

risp once again

Why do we keep staring at fastballs

Benintendi has zero shot against McLean. Fastball right down the pipe for strike 3 looking. That's like 11 LOB for him in 2 games.

Keep looking at fucking fastballs down the middle on strike three.

I do not understand this approach the last 2 days

Why even bring a bat to the plate?

Another one right down the middle, WTF is going on with these guys.

they have absolutely no game plan

Beni bases loaded special. His Gody RISP numbers on the year are taking a hit the last two games.

Ever since that Cubs homer, he’s been flying off the ball. Has no plate coverage

I don't know why anyone is surprised. Chokers and not very smart is the Sox hitters it appears.

Once Beni swung at that curveball, the AB was basically over.

There’s no other explanation as the pressure is getting to them.

I mean it's not Pedro Martinez out there. Swing the bat.

Make that 1 for 20 with RISP, at some point this trend gotta turn around, just by odds alone

Whatever happened to you got to swing off is close with 2 strikes. 3x right down the middle the last 2 games and we just watch them.

He did start the WBC for Team USA...not exactly Bruce Chen, either.

Fedde is throwing batting practice. Can we stop throwing him fastballs?

Are we sure we don’t want Robert back?

Somehow keeps coming up with bases loaded
