Boston takes the lead on a HR form a guy I had never ever heard of ......obviously I don't watch them at all

Andrew Benintendi. Rookie just called up partway through the year and even then missed some time with injuries ... but he's expected to be a star so you're probably going to know him. I could have done without the ridiculous overturn of Chisenhall's slide at 2nd base (safe changed to out) which is the type of "bad" call that NO ONE had in mind when replay was instituted.

Yeah, liked the somewhat testy back and forth between the booth and Ripken on that

metirish Oct 07 2016 01:06 AM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

Kipnis with a HR and the Indians are back on top 3-2. Ernie really needs to work on a HR call

metirish Oct 07 2016 01:07 AM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

And another solo HR and it's 4-2 Indians

Frayed Knot Oct 07 2016 01:19 AM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

I was going to say 'Welcome to American League Baseball' (after the Indians went back to back to back) but we Met fans really can't say that this year considering the type of games we played most of the season.

Christ , another solo shot , this time Boston , 4-3 Indians

Zvon Oct 07 2016 01:45 AM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

I thought I was watching a home run derby.

Look at Francona going to Andrew Miller in the 5th inning in an attempt to calm things down!! Only once all year did he appear prior to the 7th, either while on the Indians or back with the Yanx.

metirish Oct 07 2016 01:59 AM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

Kipnis with a single and it's 5-2 Indians

Fman99 Oct 07 2016 02:19 AM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

AL baseball to be sure, 10:18 PM and it's all of the middle of the 6th inning.

metirish Oct 07 2016 02:53 AM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

I'm done, can'r stay awake .........it was a good game hours ago

This year the Mets played barely 40% of their games (72) in under 3 hours, just 34 games (21%) that came in under 2:50, and just six were shorter than 2:30. And to think that 2-1/2 hours used to be the average time for a game.

Zvon Oct 07 2016 03:09 AM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

I think Papi's safe. 8th inning, Papi on 2nd, 1 out. 5-4 Injuns. OE: pinch runner for Ortiz.

Zvon Oct 07 2016 03:21 AM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

Bogaerts, with a very pathetically defensive at-bat, goes down on a checked swing and the tying run is stranded.

Zvon Oct 07 2016 03:51 AM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

Indians win. Last out was more ump crap, but it was a borderline checked swing that, even after seeing it in slo-mo, could have been called either way.

MFS62 Oct 07 2016 01:25 PM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

About that called last strike- Red Sox fans have developed whining to a new art form. The sportscasters for the Connecticut TV stations (I think they only hire Sox fans) were a show unto themselves last night and this morning. Later

Frayed Knot Oct 07 2016 01:42 PM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

I didn't think it was a strike in real time, but 'upon further review' the 1st base ump was correct, he went far enough.

Frayed Knot Oct 09 2016 07:09 PM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

Rained out in Bawston today. Re-sked for Monday at 6:00

Zvon Oct 10 2016 10:13 PM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

I've been pulling Bogaerts rookie cards. I'm gonna start putting them back.

Zvon Oct 11 2016 12:01 AM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

Cal, when you make a bad observation and comment, don't try to cover over it with more bad observations and comments. That time Bogaerts did nothing wrong.

Zvon Oct 11 2016 01:05 AM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

So far, 52% of all runs this postseason are on HRs. As kool as that is it's not as much fun, at least to me, as watching a team work their way around the bases. 4-2 Indians @Fenway. 8th. OOOOO, nice catch by Mookie in right.

Frayed Knot Oct 11 2016 01:07 AM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

As Steve Rushin of Sports Illustrated pointed out in a recent column, if it wasn't for sports we wouldn't know anyone named Mookie.

Frayed Knot Oct 11 2016 01:24 AM Re: IGT _ Red Sox at Indians

Papi, as the tying run on 2nd, is removed for a pinch-runner in bottom 8th. If they fail to win this game it'll be his final appearance.

I was hoping they'd tie it there. Indians advance. BoSox dun.

Can't those photogs get the fuck out of the way so it's Papi & the fans? Jeeze.
