Walk killed them

Horrible 0-2 pitch

He's also gotta catch that

But ultimately this game might've been lost in the 1st inning

I knew when Rochio came up something stupid was going to happen. Walking Bailey was the killer in that inning.

Grant overthrew everything to bailey

Yep. They've done it before.

Braden is rarely on the bench so I am not sure if they have or not

Taylor is not a closer. Why give him anything to hit with the count 0-2 and first base open ?

Sort of buries the closer in a non save situation bulljive that he has been living off. How about halo man isn’t that good?

I don’t want to see Murakami in the lineup again this year.

Grant has been getting hurt on his high fastball. He's not throwing it high enough.

This was our chance man. We wasted all our good bullpen arms. I don't know if we can come back from this.

They'll lose 2-1 tomorrow.

Grant certainly could have gotten out of it and probably deserved to, but like I said during the inning you probably should have just put Newcomb in.

This loss could’ve buried Cleveland. Instead they’ll most likely be 0.5 games up after Messick dices them up tomorrow

I don't know why teams keep walking him. He's not that good of a hitter.

If he's normal he catches that. And why does Will start Doyle who's better defensively and puts in sam . Will managed this game very poorly

This loss was on Will. Starting Murphy instead of Davis and gifting 3 runs to the Guardians in the 1st inning.

because of the stupid LHPers rhb crap

Exactly. And Braden essentially sucks now anyway with the bat, so it's a negligible gain for a substantial drawback. Cost them the game.

Or their pitchers execute locations much better in accord with that positioning…

Or maybe both.

We can’t have Mune or Colson at cleanup anymore, they are killing us, bat them 7th, 8th or 9th

Tigers have all the sudden got hot now so those won't be easy.

It was nice to feel good for one day. Jumping off the ledge now

where the hell was Sam playing

Just watched the replay, he shifted to his left for no reason as the pitch was thrown. Cost him the out

what a fucking gut punch man.

They've brought Doyle in for Sam, and moved Peters to left.

Doyle should never start, he should only be a defensive replacement when holding a lead.

fucking White Sox can't develop an an actual natural outfielder to save their lives

Antonacci is a 2B pure and simple

now they're trying to transform Bonemer into one on the fly

Why the f*** should they play Mune?

That inning should have never made it to Rocchio. He's the guy you want to leave on deck in these situations.

Tough way to lose. And yes, that play cost them the game.

But you know what else costs them the fucking game.

Over and Over again Murakami and Colson striking out.

Murakami- 0-4 4ks

Mongomery- 02- 1k

They are unplayable.

He’s terrible at 2nd
