    That call on the ball-girl was BS. It should count the same as a fan touching it... a double!

    Might as well bring Verlander for at least one more inning. Let's get the lead first! :)

    So HInchs best Case plan (and likely premeditated) was to use verlander for 3 innings in a non elimination game, and remove possibility of him pitching game 5.

    I would , but who knows what goes through hinch's little brain.

    I'm still bewildered that he brought in liriano vs devers ... Really !? Let's bring in our **** lefty reliever to face a guy who (despite being left-handed) kills lefties .

    And crunch it, just at the outfield but good looking swing.

    Yes...it is ! Total lack of professionalism....waiting for them to openly start cheering for the Red Sox along with the crowd.

    Angel Hernandez strikes again. That guy is about as worthless as you can get.

    The Red Sox put in Kimberley , so now hinch will put in Giles ... He's just copying what he sees a real manager do.

    I tell you what. I couldn't be a pro sports players, skills aside, I'm nervous as **** just sitting here watching. I couldn't imagine being in the moment actually out there on the field.
