[the Q]

This is like when people tired to say Craig tripped over middlebrooks in the 2013 series when the video showed he was tripping himself.

This is what you get when you take out your starter who still has a 1 hitter and a fairly low pitch count. Think I like my chances more with Hill and 1 out and a guy on first than Madson with 1 out and 2 guys on.

Nice prediction.

 

[Yardigan]

I just told my son...I want Madson in the game...

 

[storrsroars]

JHC why Madson?

Give Roberts enough time and he'll it up.

 

[the Q]

Should be 3-0. Now it doesnt matter

 

[superjohn]

Roberts absolutely sucks, he's blown every game in the series going to Madson. Two straight games he takes out his starter in the 7th who have a 2 hitter and 1 hitter. You have to try really hard to suck that much as a manager.

 

[Chin Diesel]

If Madson leaves park, finds his car tires slashed and files a police report, it may go untouched.

Dude is straight up villain to LA fans.

 

[Marat]

It would be nice if Betts or JD started hitting ....

Such a homer.

Here's a link. I recommend you read it.

Key part:

1. A throw must be made. If the catcher, for example, comes up with a bunted ball and sets up to throw to first, but then stops and doesn't throw because the runner (in his view) is in the way, you cannot have interference.
2. The throw must be a catchable throw. Using the same example, if the catcher comes up with a bunted ball and then throws wild to first base because (in his view) the runner was in the way, you cannot have interference.
3. Note the language of the rule: "… interferes with the fielder taking the throw at first base." Points #3 and #4, above, rest on this most important point: that is, if there is interference, the interference is on the fielder receiving the ball at first base and not on the fielder throwing the ball from the vicinity of home plate. This is very important when applying the rule. You're going to get managers arguing that the runner caused a fielder to throw wild, or not throw at all, but these are not valid arguments.

I’m still mad about that play.

 

[intlzncster]

Probably they told him not to injure himself running .. He had ankle problems ...injuries

Knee problems no? Plant knee.

Are they playing?

Does he have pictures of Dave Roberts with a donkey? Why does Roberts keep letting him blow games?

 

[storrsroars]

Madson has inherited 7 runners in WS play. All 7 have scored.

OTOH, LAD is 54-0 when leading by 4 or more runs this season.

Could've gone to Urias to face Moreland.

And if given the opportunity next game Roberts will go to him again to blow it.

 

[mauconnfan]

No I’m not.

You are wrong and they all run there period. Bad throw by Pearce set it up made Vasquez jump.....blame where it belongs

 

[Scoe]

Jansen not changing location pounding the top of the zone like a meathead the Sox of course are gonna crush it lol.

 

[Marat]

Let's Go Sox !

 

[Chin Diesel]

Who is ready for another all nighter?

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

OMG Martinez is brutal

 

[mauconnfan]

It’s over if he keeps Jansen in you got this he’s not the same guy at all. Roberts continues to push all the wrong buttons...

 

[3rdbass]

OMG Martinez is brutal

And Betts. Great MVP performance by him. Wow and Xander hitting .056! That is just abysmal.

 

[intlzncster]

Who is ready for another all nighter?

Just. Can't. Do it.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

If the Sox win this series it’ll be on the backs of guys like Pearce, Moreland, Vazquez, Nunez. Getting absolutely nothing from the big boys
