Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Red Sox vs Yankees playoff agenda in full f***ing force early in the year. Stop man, we've had plenty of those favourable calls go our way early in the year. There's no bias about that, just a pretty poor system that relies too much on the call on the field.

Yes but that decision came way too quick when it should have clearly been examined a lot longer than it did.
saskjayfan Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 come on Travis...this is your night
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Nice... walkoff on Kimbrel again, please!
saskjayfan Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 kimbrel looks like such a goof
gruber92 Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Why do the Red Sox always seem to find the most annoying looking closers?
saskjayfan Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 do not swing...you will get a walk
glory Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Time for the reason why I will never trust exit velocity ever again, Kendrys Morales, to do something positive.
gruber92 Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Travis should have swung at that 1-0 fastball.
el duque Verified Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Great baseball game, close until the end, good show,
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Faaaack very winnable series... move on and win Birds!
Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Sucks to lose the series but it was a close one, every game came down to one run and was constantly back and forth.
Omar Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Close games against the best in the East.....nothing to be embarrassed about.
saskjayfan Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Teoscar is for real....taking tough pitches...working counts. This guy punishes balls when the count is in his favour.
jaysfan2014 Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Lost 2/3.. at least the good news is that the sked lightens up for a while--3 with the Rangers, Twins, then the Rays and a double-header vs. the Indians.. At least they were close games.. we just need to get Donaldson back and get Travis and Grichuk going.
jaysfan2014 Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Faaaack very winnable series... move on and win Birds! Winnable? Sox are 19-5! This series though showed the Jays need Donaldson back ASAP.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Winnable? Sox are 19-5! This series though showed the Jays need Donaldson back ASAP. 3 one run games, yes, winnable.
Brownie19 Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Did anyone catch Buck talking about an interaction between Vasquez and Matt Barnes in the dugout? Buck goes on about how Vasquez approached Barnes between innings to discuss the hitters he'd be facing the next inning and what approach they would use to get them out. Then he proclaimed Boston has a good one in Vasquez because he's such a leader. I think this is my biggest pet pev about Buck. He's done this kind of thing throughout his years in the booth. He has absolutely no f***ing idea what they are talking about in the dugout. They might have been talking about the whore they tagged last night or the steakhouse they're going to for dinner after the game. Why make s*** up and then spout it off to the viewing audience? I guess people like stories (whether they are true or not). Personally, I prefer when broadcasters stick to the facts and don't skew fans perceptions.

Brownie19 Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Skewing perspectives is 99% of television. And I might be light on the percentage meh - you're probably right. I just see no need to make s*** up and speech with such conviction about it when there's factual things he could talk about (if he wasn't a dinosaur). I guess the general public likes that kinda stuff. "Oh - isn't that interesting. A pitcher and a catcher are talking about how to get hitters out in the dugout. What a great young leader that Vasquez guy is because he's doing his job. I'm entertained."
