Tickets, Tickets, Tickets...who knows what's going on?

I'm sitting in the waiting room. Entered at 9:55...do I need to close out and try again after 10??

Try it in multiple browsers if you have them. E.g., get into the waiting room separately in Chrome, Firefox, and IE. Triple your chances.

Were you given the option to purchase more than 2 games based on availability? Or was it strictly limited to 2 preselected games?

I could pick game 1 or 2. Once those tickets were in my cart, it gave me the option for game 6 or 7. There was no option that I noticed to select anything beyond that.

I clicked on the button for non-STH tix, got a congrats and heard the solid hit audio, but when I got into the waiting room, it said tix are not on sale before noon. Will check in again right before then.

I tried Game 2 first, no luck in quantities of 4 or 2. Then tried Game 1 and the same thing. I was able to secure 4x tickets in Section 16 for Game 6, but they were too rich for my blood and I put them back in. I was able to get two tickets for section 82 for Game 7 only. I had to choose Game 7 because that was the only option when I went back to click schedule. I'm already kicking myself for throwing the dream tickets back.

lol I did this too and I got really excited for a second when I heard the congratulatory clapping. Then I got brought back down to earth when I got the error message. I thought I had found a glitch or something!

I dont think anyone would have faulted you for buying those 4 in section 16 and selling the other 2 to pay for your tickets.

I just figured since that was my first go around in Game 6, I'd be able to secure another cheaper section. When I went back to click schedule Game 1, 2, and 6 were gone. Game 7 was my only option. Pretty bummed.

Game 1, 2 and 3 was gone from the very beginning, at least by 10:03, when they finally let me in and only game 4 had tickets.

    • There were men on 1st and 3rd with one out  O’Neil hits a homer 12% of the time vs lefties which is what they would have been needed to win the game.  A single just puts the winning run on 2nd maybe third most likely in Fenway a double won’t score him with the wall unless he hits it the other way which he doesn’t do.  As good as he is he still just gets a hit 33% of the time Yoshida  even though he doesn’t hit well vs them doesn’t strike out and he has 5 GIDP in 385 plate which ranks him 155th out of 178 qualified hitters with 400 at bats.  So the chances of getting a double play are very slim.   In order to win the game you have these scenarios and percentage based on splits.   1 O’Neil to hit a homer 12%  2. O’neil to get a hit 32% and Yoshida get a hit 20%(30% if Refsynder pinch hits) or Jansen to get a hit 25% 3. Walk O’Neil  20% Yoshida gets a hit or 25% Jansen gets a hit  So statistically it shows these percentages for Boston to win Pitch to O’Neil and he homers 12%  Pitch to O’Neil and they get two hits to win 14%  Walk him and face Yoshida and Jansen and one of them get a hit 22%  That is without factoring in wild pitch walk or an error which makes walking him a worse decision.      
    • That's how everyone should be looking at it. Yet, inexplicably, there are people here who think we should have more wins because...Hyde.
    • That loss eliminated them from playoff contention. He also keeps his signing bonus. Maybe pro ball wasn't his dream? Still a crap thing to do to his teammates.
    • I think the other thing is that you have to know a little bit about Dean’s personality in these press scrums.  I think he’s a very bright guy. And I think he has a tendency to come off like…someone who knows he’s a very bright guy. He can get a little dismissive and sarcastic if they ask questions he thinks are dumb. A little bit of the hipster style “well, ACTUALLY…” He does it to some degree earlier in this same interview, when they asked if he was frustrated about the two out walks and his response was basically “I actually don’t like any walks in general.” I think that’s what happened here. I think he perceived it as a dumb question, and I think his response is mostly just him politely explaining why it was a dumb question to ask him.
    • I'm not a fan of the way Hyde handles the bullpen and his (or are they the FO's) lineups often drive me nuts. Having said that, he's done a really good job overall as the O's skipper. If somebody told you at the beginning of the year we'd lose half of our top pitchers to injury and our hitters would be one of the worst teams with RISP would you think we'd only be two games out of 1st place in mid-September?
    • Gotta agree with Luis. No way the person operating that twitter account knows about that cartoon!
