Extra innings as the road team is when you could still use your closer to close. If you use Santos now and eventually take the lead, you are going to have someone you don't want closing, closing.

 

Good point. We're gonna have to go with Ohman another inning if we fail to score again.

 

Lucky #7 Rockies pitcher

Rex Brothers is pitching. Oh brother.

 

Is he related to any of the Irish Christian Brothers who taught me at Brother Rice?

we got out of it, which makes it moot.. but I just would have brought santos in knowing i'm using him next inning too... I say after 12 innings you really shouldn't have your closer still waiting

i say we're scoring 3-4 this inning. let bruney clean up. he's like the guy who gets called to the tilt-a-whirl when some fat kid blows chunks as he gets off. "Bruuu-NEY!"

Brothers has some wicked stuff.

I wish Rex's sisters were pitching at this point.

Brothers was someone a lot of us wanted the Sox to draft a few years ago

I have little confidence in Juan.

Yuk. Another out.

Glad to see Teahen up against a lefty ... Not.

Hopefully we start getting better swings. Last 6 or so outs have been very weak.

I have little confidence in Juan.

you jinxed him. say one positive thing right now and we'll win it. come on, turn the worm...

Yeah, I was surprised to see him already in the Majors. Ultimately, a lefty reliever was what the Sox took that year in Poreda. Hard to regret not taking another lefty reliever.

I was one of his biggest fans as a prospect. LOVED him.

CQ is going yard H.A.M.

I've decided to stop watching if we are retired in this half of the inning. If somehow we win I can watch the highlight on mlb.com.

 

Sox have defeated me tonight.

Poreda was taken two years before Brothers.

Well night all. I will eagerly check ESPN.com tomorrow morning only to see we lost this game.

 

I actually can't recall an extra-inning game where I went to sleep before it was over to find that the Sox actually won.

Brutal ;/

OK Guys, I'm out.

Don't don't be too hard on the team if/when we lose.

I wonder if we could set the MLB record for most innings played in a season.....we play a ton of extra innings.

This team is so exciting to watch.

6 relievers nothing that is hard to do Sox offense at it's best.

When!!!!!!!!!!!!
