EloyJenkins Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Good win. Coulda enjoyed some more runs, but bullpen held it together. HFA may still be sniffable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked like he did against us last year in game 2 of the wild card series. Expand The reason I've never wavered in my confidence in Hendriks is because his strikeouts/insane whiff rate + microscopic BB rate have been constant all year. I'm sure this is just a blip, but it's the first time all year it's felt like his stuff isn't overpowering. Maybe he isn't getting the same extension on his fastball? I don't know.

Expand I agree. The offense will come and go and as long everyone is healthy I'm not worried, the bigger issue is the pitching. The Sox need to pitch like in the first half and rodon coming back strong is extremely important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCCWS Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 A lot of bullpen support got the victory. Rodon was really good in his stint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Was at the game and it was a blast but man, almost 4 hours to play 8 and a half innings in a game where there wasn’t a ton of scoring or hitting? Yikes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
