Good chance this baby is over before the Astros get to hit with King coming in.
If King gets out of this inning without giving up two more runs I will be very surprised.
Buckle up, buttercup.
Blubaugh took a dump out there, but Iām also pretty concerned with how patient and mature the Sox were against him. Didnāt expand their zone an inch.
90 percent of Blubaughās misses were not close, though.
Pena wouldāve swung at all of them, but most batters wouldnāt.
King works out of it. Sox get an unearned run without a hit
1-0
Well, that was a whimper of an ending.
Very much their m.o.
The Sox never swung at anything because they were too busy diving out of the way.
They would have had to expand their zones to Beaumont.
You could tell after the first batter that Blubaugh was lost. Walker just threw gas on the fire.
I saw a number of close pitches first two walks. Third wasnāt close. Regardless, at least PeƱa reintroduced me to the brand of baseball Iāve been used to this season.
Sweepers that run from way outside to a few inches outside arenāt going to get swung at very often with less than 2 strikes.
He doesnāt trust his stuff.
Astros just went out there hacking at everything
This is my shocked face.
Leadoff shiftfuck roller to 2B for the Sox first hit
Another single
I didnāt think they would bring King back for the 2ndā¦
This is a throw away game as far as Espada is concerned.
