The RS are feast and famine when it comes to team speed. The Bs are all above average and Beni and Mookie are way above average. Hanley, Moreland, Leon and the injured Pedroia all run like the 1973 version of Orlando Cepeda. Even Devers is slow for a young guy.

Got one back there and Verlander is looking mortal. Stay with me guys. I am riding shotgun the whole way, no way I am giving up.

Gotta stay away from the slider guys. Just stick with fastball/change.

Yes, thankfully the run counted - but their 'aggressive' strategy of running into out after out shows a fundamental misunderstanding of what is important in baseball by this coaching staff. There was no doubt this was going to rear its ugly head in the post-season and that probably won't be the final issue. It's one-thing to throw away outs in a long regular season but this is the post-season and that choice by DP was inexcusable but will likely be celebrated as a 'good try' in the dugout...

God I miss Josh Reddick. He was kind of my binky before Keith Couch, that swing was beautiful and the sheer power it could generate was always amazing to me. I'm very happy that he has a nice MLB career going, too bad it isn't with the Red Sox.

wow. Moreland is in. how does Pedey not get into 3rd? that was the slowest grounder ever. I knew Pedey was out as soon as I saw him rounding 2nd. I was thinking the same thing. Come on Pedey!!

"Sale doesn't have that look in his eye". We need for our pitching coaches to watch their eyes, not their arms.

I still want Riddick back. One of the stupidest trades ever.

You still in Brazil, Don? What time is it there? And how's the reception? Still here! It's 6 PM and I'm following it through gameday because my internet connection is especially ungodly awful today plus the TV channel that airs baseball here isn't showing the game (kind of). What anguishes me most is that I need to do a work related stuff in about 20 minutes and I'm not sure when I'll be back, goddamn it stupid life.

That's not a concern. We got the bullpen to deal with it.

didn't expect that, but as long as he can keep us in the game, our bullpen can finish the job. No more runs. 5+ innings.

And the order about to turn over. It's a long shot that our ace makes it through 6 today.

Verlander hovering around 50% strikes.
