Series Thread: 2021 ALCS-Red Sox v. Astros

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

This one looks over now unfortunately.
Boston has nothing going on.
6-0....heading to the 7th.

Sox will now have to take both games in Houston for that AL pennant.

Tall order...but not impossible.

Sox now have as many errors as they do hits today.
2 each.





7-0.
Total implosion.

sox BP reared its ugly head but bats disappeared

 

[molsaniceman]

avoided the shut out at least

Sox avoid the goose egg sandwich on a bagel.
Devers' solo HR makes it a 7-1 game.
Too little too late.

Save it for Friday.

At least Renfroe doesn’t hit into a lot of DPs

Damn.

I wish the Astros quit as easily as their fans did.

Didn't quit. Been watching at the bar the last 2 games.
I'm still here.

J.D. Martinez is good at avoiding getting caught stealing!

Red Sox were 6 outs away from going up 3-1 last night....now they are on the brink of elimination needing to win 2 in Houston.

Shit changes fast in this sport

That's on Cora. In a 1-0 game in the 5th with only 2 hits each team... With runners on 1st & 2nd, not outs, and a batter who is 1 for 12 in the series...

What do you do?

I would’ve had him bunting in that situation.

Is bunting still legal in baseball?

Is it even a skill set players have in today's game?

Yes....but it’s used more in the NL imho.

I love it when Harold Reynolds goes off on batters for not bunting against the shift. The 3rd baseman is playing in the short stop position and a bunt down the 3rd base line would be almost impossible for the pitcher or 3rd baseman to make the play. If the defense is going to give it to you, why not take it?

Pulling for a Soxx win. Don't expect it though.

If somehow the Soxx get to the series I hope the Braves are there, if Houston gets in, I hope they meet the Dodgers
