So Chris Sale struck out 17 batters in 7 innings. Never been done before and the record well within reach, but because of the dreaded ****ing Pitch Count Alex Cora doesn't let him go out for the eighth inning. Mind you the ****ing Pitch Count was only at 108 pitches.
And with a 3-2 lead the bullpen promptly gives it up and the Red Sox lose in 11 innings.
In a sport that is losing fans you would think something this historic would be welcomed but the ****ing Pitch Count always seems to get in the way.
This is one game I'm glad the Red Sox lost and it was all due to the ****ing Pitch Count.

Correa too
I hate it when managers let pitch count 1. **** up something historic and 2. **** up the game.
Ridiculous. Springer is scalding hot. In the AL he's first in HR, RBI, Hits, Runs Scored, and Slugging, 4th in Average.
That’s bellinger for the dodgers, but he’s been like that since the season started. Leads MLB in everything, only category he doesn’t is HRs, he’s only back one at 15.
I was at the game, and was not happy that Sale didn't come out for the 8th inning. He looked sharp in the 7th and while I knew his PC was a bit high, I thought he'd stay in and shoot foe 20. I get that he's their ace and he's being protected, but come on, let him at least start the 8th and give him a shot! A freaking shame that he pitched so well and the bullpen totally imploded. As well as their bats.
Yeah Bellinger is on another level from everyone right now.
And all their numbers are up from 2017 too. And with Altuve down and out.
that is the amazing thing...
RIP Bill Buckner. Will always, and unfairly be remembered for his error in '86 WS but he was the heart and soul of that Red Sox team.

Funny how people are always remembered for their screw ups. Build a hundred bridges...
Astros can't get a break now. Altuve, Springer, Correa, Diaz, and Stassi all gone with injuries. Altuve and Springer with extended time.
LOL!!! Saw that this morning. She throws like a girl.
Or ford racer Kyle.
in all fairness ford racer isn't a pitcher, he's a catcher....
True dat!
Who is this ford racer Kyle you guys speak of? Did I miss something good?
