This would not happen to anyone else in baseball.

Haha. Nope. AJ always finds himself in the middle of everything.

I wonder if somehow AJ does this stuff or he has a horseshoe up his ass.

 

He knew the rule, he flopped, he got the call. Brilliant!

All I know is that if AJ played for the Rays and did the same thing, I'd be pissed right now.

Let's get it Lexi!!

I like this....Alexei's better for this situation.

Rays runnin' scared now, walking Thome........

Hawk would be dead, I firmly believe.

Walk Thome? Isn't Ramirez batting like .450 with runners in scoring position.

AJ will be a great manager one day.

AJ will be a great manager one day.

 

Absolutely!

A.J. has pretty much created this entire rally himself. The single, the great baserunning play, and the great rundown flop.

So Santo and 101...here's a chance for Thome. Not going to lie, he's the last person I want up in this situation.

...and right there it f***ing shows why he doesn't have that many late inning hits but his OBP is through the roof. Why do teams avoid him and guys like Alex Gonzalez get all the game winning hits.

what the f*** with that swing lexi?

Alexei is clutch.

Alexi got screwed. That was a base clearing double!

Yes sir!!!! Huge win, thanks PK and Alexei.

Hell yeah Lexi!! Man we needed that.

ALEXI, YEAH BABY!!!!!!!!!!! AJ TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

SOX WIN!!!!!!!!

You can't fool Alexi.

BTW, terrible managing by Maddon leaving Zobrist in LF for the 9th and walking Thome.

If Jim Thome was so unclutch, why wouldn't Tampa pitch to him in that situation? He's a prime DP candidate.

Come on Anaheim

yesssssss.

If Jim Thome was so unclutch, why wouldn't Tampa pitch to him in that situation? He's a prime DP candidate.

 

Because Jim crushes the ball unless he's facing a lefty or a closer, and Tampa had neither of those to use. He'd have won the game too. Numbers are deceptive.

10 game hitting streak for Alexei.
