Really no consistency with how he's calling strikes.

It’s so bad. And I hate how he calls strikes it’s extremely delayed.

imo he's absolutely tipping, they know what's coming

Yeah he has to be giving something away. The pitch locations this inning aren't that bad.

I can’t believe people don’t want full time ABS

He needs to eat this one and get some scoreless innings at this point. Basically try to luck through some innings.

I guess I was wrong. That was rough and he could barely buy an out.

Bibee was leading mlb in lowest run support

Gets 6-0 lead

6-5. Into the Bird Bath. Alonso bomb Herrin in

Bailey has blown all their challenges already lol

There is not a single constant in the starting rotation.

Seriously. Just get it done.

Brutal managing this inning

It would be the most baseball thing for the Sox to come back and Cleveland to lose. And no I’m not predicting it lol.

Ultimately, I wish Burke pitched better but we got a big clue about what's going on from this one getting pushed back. He must be wearing down. Hopefully the Sox can get him back to form.

Let’s go O’s 👀👀

Worked seemingly for Martin

f*** it. Pirates are cheating.

you know you ain't counting on Murakami to save you, that's for sure

Welp time to flush this one. Go Orioles I guess.

That didn't take long.

How often will the offense match big innings? They'll swing for the fences trying to get it back on one pitch the rest of the night.

Or did the Astros hitting just suck that series?

At least Acuna will get to pitch tonight.

I mean, that's wishful thinking. Guys usually dont get back to form once they run out of gas. This team is screwed.

7-0, pretty hard to come back in this one.

Venable will say if Pham was healthy, the score would have been closer

Bookmark this game, because this will be talked about a s%*# ton as “that one bad start” that skewed Burke’s season, and there will be a heated debate about whether or not this start should count in our overall assessment of Burke’s season.

Pitching staff is a debacle overall....whole team just hoping to coast into the postseason at this point on fumes.

The starters. Not the Bullpen. The bullpen is one of the best in baseball.
