GDT: Toronto Blue Jays @ Boston Red Sox (1 of 4)

[P2F]

Yay, he Pearced the hearts of the Red Sox with that hit.

[TheHurl]

Hoffman fWAR 1.3, Tulo since the trade 3.2. Does he catch Tulo by the end of the season?

[wk680]

Yeah but sometimes you need to let your young stud try and get himself out of it, if anything to build experience, especially when your other option is Leone.

 

Yeah you need to bring in someone better than Leone in that spot or don't bother. But it did make sense to pull Stroman, as he was up to 106 pitches. Just a shame his nice outing went to s*** so quickly.

[gruber92]

Leone trying for the one pitch win.

[Omar]

Taxed Pen.

 

...but Tepera in now?

[gruber92]

...but Tepera in now?

 

Yeah this is mind boggling with only one out needed in a sticky situation the previous inning. I guess Tepera isn't allowed to pitch in the seventh inning.

It's kind of dumb how if a pitcher makes an error and runs are scored that those runs don't go as ER's

Because those runs would not have scored if not for an error? Regardless who committed it, an error is an error, thus the runs are not earned.

Jose no 5 Ks please

[gruber92]

Bautista going for the magic 5?

[wk680]

Leone trying for the one pitch win.

 

Is anyone here familiar with the possible existence of a rule that it is within the discretion of the official scorer to award the 'W' to a pitcher who was not the pitcher of record when the team took the lead for the final time in the game. Like in this case, he could award the W to Stroman instead of 1-pitch Leone? I was told such a rule exists but is never invoked in MLB.

Russell looking like Pilar

They wouldn't have?

 

I'm just saying it's weird how his f*** up helps his stats. When a position player makes the error I get it.

I think this can only be applied when the SP doesn't go five innings and happens more often when the SP only pitches a few innings.

[Yippy]

It's been awhile since Osuna has blown a save

Makes sense. Thanks!

It's really hard not to love Osuna.

[jaysguy44]

Osuna is so damn filthy

Well, a SP is considered a position player. If the play was made, which in most cases it is and that's why it's an error, the runs would not have scored.

That's a nice description. Thanks!
