Castro out here getting gift calls

Castro out here getting clutch knocks

Lmao didn’t even know the guy was still playing

 

[navamind]

I hope Laz Diaz gets the coof

 

[navamind]

I'm just glad we wasted Eovaldi for this fucking game.

 

[navamind]

also think Renfroe fucked up on that double. I think he's been playing too shallow

 

[navamind]

Martin Perez is fucking awful

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Cora! Cora! Cora!

 

[bksballer89]

Best of 3

 

[navamind]

Sox shot themselves in the foot all night with runners on

Major shift in series momentum!

Note to Red Sox

If the guy couldn’t last on Twins pitching staff…….he ain’t good

Hate to see a Boston team fall apart in the playoffs...or not.

The worm has turned...

At least he fucked both teams with his off the plate strike calls. He should not be a home plate ump for any more playoffs games through the 2022 playoffs.

I generally don’t like to bitch about umpires, as I feel like it all balances out in the end. That said, the home plate ump was fucking terrible tonight.

I mean, I would have preferred to DFA him a while ago but there was at least *some* rationale to bringing in Perez (Brantley has struggled with lefties throughout his career). Of couse, I don't know how valuable that kind of data is when you have a crappy pitcher on the mound.

I still think bringing in Eovaldi was a dumber move, though I guess he's still available for G6?

I have no problems with a wide zone... Just be consistent....

It seemed like all his bad calls were pivotal in this game....
