Chourio still has those ABs where everyone in the building knows he's swinging at every pitch

Nice work, Anderson

Anderson isn't great but he did the job tonight. Tie this up and put the pressure back on them

Clutch pitching.

Anderson was the right call. Not just in hindsight, but also because you clearly save all the best guys for tomorrow unless you come back.

He had a pretty good year. So did Bauers. I don't understand why certain guys become darlings whereas others become hated.

Bauers!

I literally missed one at-bat all game. Guess which one.

Ugh, that wasnt close

Hitting for Ortiz was the right call. I just hope the drop off in defense with Monta doesn't bite us.

We are coming and are going to win if we can hold them to 4 here.

I would have just left Ortiz in for defense, but if you're going to PH for him, what are you saving Vaughn for?

It's not just that. What if an infielder sprains an ankle or something? There's literally nobody else now.

I didn't watch many games this season, but this series sure has made me familiar with the bullpen.
