Maybe because it's the 3rd inning and 5 runs is nothing for the DOdgers lineup, especially against Sean Newcomb and this bullpen?

Your pen can't be any worse than the Red Sox pen

That's why he got beaned the last time, no? Due to him staring at a homer?

I think it was more because he hit 4 homers in 3 games and was hitting like .800 in that series against the Marlins. He'd lead off the first 3 games of the series with a homer, guess Urena wanted to make sure it wasn't 4 in a row.

Worked out real well for them.

So Gausman wont start tommorow??

As bad as he sucked on Thursday, I'd rather have Folty on short rest and let Gausman pitch tonight than have the bullpen try and cover 5 and 1/3 innings in a must win game.

Story of Newcomb's season. Couldn't throw strikes.

That's what happens when you walk people.

And Acuna with a big error.

He normally doesn't. Pitchers usually don't air it out when starting though.

ok didn't think he did...

I am sure he is very amped up right now.. Clearly showing

I wish we had one pitcher on this entire staff that I was confident would come in and not walk the yard. All I ask is to throw strikes. If they hit it, they hit, but God damn, under no circumstance do you walk them.

And just like that the tying run comes to the plate.

They've had one hit this inning.

Throw strikes.
