Leyland isn’t big on pitch counts.

I don’t expect him to leave Sanchez out there all night unless he has a good reason to. Verlander and Scherzer are another matter.

Sanchez is starting to lose it.

So how’s your bullpen? Boston is lights out

Tigers have a pretty solid bullpen. I’m guessing Albuquerque, or Coke will pitch with Benoit closing.

Well, Leyland has yanked Sanchez. Good move.

16 strikeouts on the night - tying a franchise record.

Still only 1 run. Id “hate” to see Sanchez’s outing go to waste.

That outfield catch looked like a disaster in the making. Nice running catch though.

Maybe he’ll smash one out of here and make Boston regret that trade.

I knew Benoit would at the very least blow the no-hitter, but he gets the save.

Benoit is exactly that kind of closer.

Interesting interview with Jose Veras after the game. That dude is one solid Christian.

What a game!

Both LC series are excellent, both feature evenly matched teams. Where the Hell does STL get guys like Michael Wacha and Joe Kelly from?

Any of the 4 remaining teams could win the WS.

Yes - just finishing dinner and getting ready. TY!

This is must win for BOS; don’t want to be down 2-0 to DET with the way they’re pitching.

Great finish to the NEW-NO game. Da Pawts!

Great finish to the NEW-NO game! Brady surprises.

SFO, SEA and DEN win (JAX covers, though).

A crazy line of 28 or was it 32? In any case, a sucker's bet.

I saw 28, and yes, it was a sucker’s bet!
