Series Thread: Rangers Travel to Cleveland for Three Games September 15-17

[DT LUNA]

Got a feeling we are looking at a sweep

 

[Duane1952]

They’re starting to time Bradford’s pitches and hit him hard. Homer, Single, Double, Single, Single 3 runs in still no outs in the 4th

And just now getting someone up in the bullpen

 

[scotsman1948]

Add another single, bases loaded and Bradford is done

 

[Duane1952]

As usual Bochy waited to long again

 

[scotsman1948]

As usual Bochy waited to long again

3 or 4 batters too late

 

[scotsman1948]

5-1 that’s 4 too many runs for this team to overcome

 

[Duane1952]

The way this offense is performing in this series. This one is over.

 

[scotsman1948]

7 runs between Bradford and Hernandez

 

[saddles]

Yea and how many hits.

That is why I included the part about the average being very poor.

 

[Senator_fan]

I’m away 1 inning and come back to a train wreck.

 

[DT LUNA]

Someone has got to be held responsible for this abortion of a bullpen.

He shouldn't be pitching in the 4th after pitching so long just 3 days ago. Botchy is nuts. I surmised yesterday he might be able to go 2 innings today.

 

[scotsman1948]

7 runs between Bradford and Hernandez

9 runs at the end of the 4th. And no offense from our side. I would empty the bench and bench everyone I could

 

[saddles]

3 or 4 batters too late

He should have been taken out after 3.

 

[scotsman1948]

He shouldn't be pitching in the 4th after pitching so long just 3 days ago. Botchy is nuts. I surmised yesterday he might be able to go 2 innings today.

He was effective for 3 innings and had only thrown 36 pitches but once the Guardians showed they were timing his pitches and connecting Bochy should have had someone other than Hernandez up getting heated up.

 

[saddles]

When Bradford threw so many pitches Thursday, it was said on here you worry about today, today and then worry about Sunday then. Well, Sunday is here, and there is plenty to worry about.

 

[Senator_fan]

He should have been taken out after 3.

Yap, Bochy really tried to milk the mule.

 

[saddles]

He was effective for 3 innings and had only thrown 36 pitches but once the Guardians showed they were timing his pitches and connecting Bochy should have had someone other than Hernandez up getting heated up.

He should have realized he would run out of gas quickly since he pitched Thursday and anticipated it by removing him early.

 

[saddles]

When you throw 42 pitches on a Thursday, you cannot be expected to go more than 2 or 3 innings, at the most, just 3 days later.

 

[saddles]

Letting Beadford stay in way too long and starting Hedges shows Bochy had given up on this game to begin with.
