Why the fuck would you hit and run with a strike out hitter and slow runner?!?!?! That inning was actually somewhat productive. Garza is probably gassed or nearing his end, either way he's going to be less effective now or the bullpen will have to get the job done for Tampa. Don't panic Devil.
This needs to be their innings. Garza barely had any time to catch his breath and the Rays offense is finally starting to slow down. Youk, Drew, Bay coming up.
God I hate TBS. Why do they REFUSE to show the throw on a dropped 3rd strike? And wait 45 minutes for a replay. Terrible network.
That's not because Pedroia is actually fast, it's because he is a good base runner that chooses his spots well. He is not a base stealer.
Game over. I'm going to watch the rest from my bed so I can go to sleep right after the last out. Fuck.
he isn't fast, but he isn't slow. Who would you rather they did it with? Only Crisp and maybe Cora have more speed of the guys in the lineup.
Iwamura should have thrown to first to get Ortiz. Crisp had it beat and he only got thrown out because he made a stupid play.
Shields-Kazmir-Garza-Price-take your pick from that system is going to be, like, a video game pitching rotation.
