Tied because RV is a f***ing idiot

Well, I turned this one on at the wrong time.

ERA... gone.

Ventura.

No f***ing way RV should be manager after this year

Good job Robin. Great job leaving him in there. He did everything he needed to do thrue 7. You couldn't see he was done in the 7th? Please resign after the game.

Robin Ventura sucks no way too defend him. Sale was tired no way a LH Sale faces Mike Trout wake the f*** up Ventura.

Seriously.. Why did he not take Sale out when loading the bases?

I think I just had a heart attack.

With about 95 pitches through 7 and a 5-0 lead (and a bullpen who really didn't pitch yesterday), I figured he would not have even started the inning.

Wouldn't be surprised if it was Chris that wanted to go back out there after seeing how pissed he was after giving up those 2 hits...Regardless...f*** STEVE STONE

Damn, that's sickening. Ventura has honestly gotta be one of the top 5 worst managers in baseball.

This was a fireable offense. It's one thing to screw up, everyone does, but he just pulled a hatchet job on our ace. He basically threw 120 pitches for no reason. How could anyone in that dugout be okay with him coming out for the 8th.

I thought the same. But figured he would get the chance to pitch a clean 8th and be taken out after one batter reached. But what do I know.

You never see a manager leave a starter in that long in the 8th after 4 straight reach. Ventura is just the worst.

JR will kiss his ass because he played for the Sox. I am frankly tired of it, just because you play for the Sox does not make you a MLB manager.

I have no problem with him going out there in the 8th. But like I said after one base runner reached he should have been pulled

Had to turn it off. I f***ing hate RV

Sale should have absolutely started the 8th. All you people yelling and screaming about it AFTER THE FACT don't get any points from me. Were all of you saying he should be taken out after 7 innings when it actually happened? I must have missed that.

 

But Sale should have never stuck around the face Trout, or really any batter after Alexei's error, that much should have been obvious.

There was absolutely no reason for that. Save his arm. The game was already over.

I'm sure Sale wanted to pitch to Trout....he loves that stuff.

 

And Trout was behind on every single fastball at 94-96, but then the count caught up to Chris and he didn't have enough confidence to go to the offspeed pitch.

 

 

That said, all of us were probably thinking he would get ONE hitter in the 8th, and definitely would have pulled him after the Ramirez error.

 

 

Once again, Sox defense also killing this team...and the umps not helping, Flowers' lack of pitching framing ability, etc.

Yup.

You have to have the pen ready. If the first one gets on take him out. RV will never be good

You did miss that, because I did say he should've been taken out after 7

The Sox never do stuff like this.
