Yeah...unless that was the plan all along?

​​​​​The announcers are bringing up a decent point - set the starter, let TB set their lineup, and then blow it up by swapping to another pitcher after 1 inning.

That ball was CRUSHED.

118mph off the bat and 458ft. Hopefully Stanton is just warming up.

Yup, now we need to not give anything back.

Happ frequently seems to get 2 strikes and then can't get the pesky 3rd.

grrrrr

This game is over.

​​​​​​Bucknor continues to be a pitchers best friend with his wildly inconsistent corner calls.

Yup. I hate that. Pick a fucking zone and call it on every pitch.

OTOH before striking out, he called a ball on Sanchez he had called a strike previously.

"Strike 2" on Torres was probably the worst yet.

Edit - Sanchez has been shit all season. Nice to see that continue

I had a choice between getting loaded & having a life. 8 years later, I got and stayed sober, I was just lucky enough to have the patience from my family and chances.

Also 4 outs away & why not leave Britton in?????

Agreed, they don't deserve to be in the post season.

Britton was throwing very well. Thankfully Chapman didnt blow it, although he looked shakey at first. The Yanks are threatening again - bases loaded, 5-1 NYY.

Lately, Chapman never inspires confidence.

I feel like he's always on when he comes in to start the 9th. But if he's coming in in the middle of an inning, he's going to be shaky.

Frequently he has at bats like that last one. numerous pitches, full count & he gives something up. This time he ended it.
