Kyyle23 Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 lol not that any of it matters, but why did they choose to pitch to Lankford? He smoked that double in the 9th, just seems like pitching to Smith was smarter there 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a sweeper on the inside corner. A terrible pitch with two strikes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s gotta throw it over the plate. You could probably put 2/3 of these blown saves square on the back of the Dugout Dunce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way, Bailey Horn looks good for the Red Sox and Cousins has been good for the Yankees. Getz really has the magic touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lip Man 1 Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 It's now 20...20 times the Sox had a lead going into the 7th inning or later...and lost the game. This is now the 4th time it happened in the 9th inning when they gave up a lead. Brebbia has now been personally responsible for four of these blown late/lost games. Another brilliant signing/waste of JR's money by Getz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
