Could Ausmus had made that DP any easier for the Sox?! That was the most pathetic hit EVER!!!! WHY SWING at the first pitch after the batter before him was WALKED?!?!!
A lot of times, that's the best pitch you'll get. The pitcher doesn't want to fall behind again, so he makes sure to throw a strike.
Ausmus still has a free pass from me... as more time goes on, his HR against the Braves in game 4 looks more and more improbable. Also, who knows what happens in a game 5 where Smoltz goes and throws his arm out.
I love how McCarver was like "he's hittable tonight..." and then bam 7 pitches later out of the inning.
if i would have blinked i wouldnt have seen the sox bat..good job roy. hes looking more and more locked in.
Roy Wonder needed a quick inning. Let's see if we can bat an inning without hitting into a Double Play.
