getting ejected in the bottom of the 2nd inning in an elimination game is insane.

also both teams seem to really like not pitching/stranding runners.


yeah, this.

true.

dumb question that i should know the answer to: do the umps give warnings before tossing a guy for giving them lip? i get the sense the shittier joe west types would not but presumably a competent ump would warn them before ejecting them, right?

The ump was giving leeway and trying to walk away but Pedroia just wouldn't back off so Farrell had to get himself tossed instead

Maybe Pedroia intentionally wanted Farrell gone so he would have less chances to gently caress up

ah gotcha. i'm half watching while i'm working from home.

also this all could've been solved had pedroia just challenged the ump to a grit-off.

Those first two innings where Porcello couldn't find the zone were good. I liked them better than now, where he's painting all the corners and blowing high fastballs by hitters
