4/30: Red Sox at O's

[mrbig1]

JJ coming in.

[alaniee]

JJ in now.... c'mon we need a DP!!

[backwardsk]

Over-managing it here, imo. I'd leave Berken in.

[El Gordo]

Wow, you never, ever, ever see that called.

I'd be pissed if I were Francona as well. That's a horse**** call.

Why he didn't just slide out of the basepath he grabbed his leg. Pretty blatant in my book.

We only need one out.

I wouldn't - Pedroia is 6-11 off of him.

Who knows, we need one out that we've been pretty incapable of getting regardless who's out there to this point in the year.

That'd be awesome! We'd have an extra out in the eighth.

Remember this is DT. This is our manager. He over manages often, imo. No surprise here.

[mrbig1]

Maybe we can get a bat boy for Atkins.

[alaniee]

I thought there was only 1 out. 2 Outs, even better! My bad lol

[theobird]

Gotta leave Berken in here. Lets hope Johnson gets his man, but this is really a dumb move IMO.

6-11? Wow, that's not too good. I'd still leave him in though.

It happens all the time - I see guys sliding nowhere near the base just to take people out almost every game.

Add in a personal swing coach, maybe he'll be better.

Yeah, if the throw makes it to first base in the air, but late, that call doesn't get made.
