I dunno, I think he has a rugged sexuality about him.

the correct move in the 8th inning is:
Berry pinch-run for Ortiz
Berry to RF (he is a CF)
Nava to 1B.

improves Dee at 2 positions and still saves Napoli to pinch-hit.

Lester starts the 8th like he should.

Freese gets a seeing eye hit.

Exactly. He was the CG, that way everyone’s rested for game 6.

Two outs, but Adams to bat for the pitcher now.

That’s a viable move for Farrell. Berry could have stolen 2nd base too. Napoli is coming in now for Ortiz.

Red Sox closer coming in for the last 4 outs.

with the Defensive gem Berry in RF, he holds Freese to a single or throws him out at 2B.

If they had Berry in, the correct double switch is:
Gomes out (pitcher here)
Nava to LF
Napoli to 1B

Farrell just took Lester out for Koji... Napoli takes over first base for Papi.

Dumbass wasted an at-bat by swinging at a bad pitch.

Koji Ks Adams that ends the 8th.

Farrell may also be thinking about a necessary game 7 with Lester starting on short rest.

Lester ended with 91 pitches.

I hope you’re right re: possible Game 7... I’d much rather see Lester start than Peavy.

“Farrell may also be thinking about a necessary game 7 with Lester starting on short rest.

I’d much rather see Babe Ruth’s remains start than Peavy.

BOS can easily trade Suchholtz AND Peavy this offseason.
