9/1: BoSox at Orioles

[weams]

isn't he, dude has been around for seemingly forever.

I think he used to be a 70's pornstar.

It's a good thing we score five runs early. Lester is starting to get it together.

[mrbig1]

Drew HR. Not good.

[JDRex05]

Doesn't Drew shell us regularly?

[Hank Scorpio]

Gutsy pitch by Arrieta.

Great call.

[cravens86]

the ump seems overly enthused to call strikeouts. He's almost falling over :laughlol:

[Hank Scorpio]

Please don't swing at this slider in the dirt, Jones.

Edit: At least it wasn't in the dirt.

[PaulFolk]

Arrieta is done for the night. Hendrickson comes in for the 6th.

The slider-in-the-dirt trick usually only works for righties (against Jones).

[Arthur_Bryant]

Henrickson. Ugh.

[Hank Scorpio]

Amazing how Lester can get torched horribly early on and then completely turn it around.

How many pitches has he thrown? Has to be approaching 100.

98 (59 strikes)

Command much improved.

This is why we need some more runs.

Arrieta really needs to come up with some kind of an out pitch, b/c he just gets fouled to death.

Also, in my completely amateur opinion, he needs to work faster.

He's working with a good fastball and decent breaker, which is fine, but a few times through good hitters can catch up. He really needs to develop his CH, he almost never throws it.

[cravens86]

Weiters single!
