Should be 8-8
With as crappy as we've played, we can't point to that bad call anymore.

We've definitely had our chances even after getting robbed but this is going to be a major talking point if the game ends this way


No it's not. It will be a blip on the radar as MLB and ESPN get closer to their dream World Series. They will only mention how it was such a good call.

So many self-inflicted wounds. I don't think any causal observer will shed tears for us tonight.

Look at the difference in approaches. Boston is patient and gets three straight walks to score a run. We swing at a pitch over our head and a ball that bounces on home plate for two consecutive outs.
It was a bad call, but honestly I'm not sure it makes a difference. So far Boston has answered every time. If Altuve gets a HR there, they probably comeback and score 3 in the second inning.

So much to overcome this game
2 run homer called an out
James left in one battter too long
Maldonado passed balls
LMJ walking in a run
White never even swings
Kemp I'll advised thrown out at 2nd.

For me it swung on that JBJ HR
Agree, Springer doesn't make a play in the outfield that would have ended the inning. Next batter 2R HR.

And we may still be batting in the first inning

What? It's the ****ing difference in the game, and who knows what happens in this game when the sox aren't gifted that cushion.

Sure you can. You get 27 outs. They only had to make 26 and were given one in exchange for 2 runs.

Astros deserve to lose this series. Not because they're less talented, but because they're playing with their heads so far up each other's asses that little league teams would be embarrassed with their results.

Oh look. Devers shows his true self when you actually pitch to him and don't gift him three balls in the dirt

Don't forget Correa just completely missing second base on a play that would have ended the inning.

You can't give up 8 runs and expect to win. That's the bottom line

Tony Sipp made $6 million this year.

That's $158,000 per inning pitched.

I doubt any casual observers are still around. These playoff games are way too damn long.

It was a tough play, but Correa should have gotten the runner at second

And another walk. Our pitching staff way over achieved this year.

Hinch killed us this series, terrible feel for when to pull pitchers, putting in McCullers when you absolutely can't have a walk, putting in White who is clearly rattled

Smart move. Walk the man with 1 out and go for the double play. Don't want to risk getting to 2 outs.
