Eovaldi was all set to pitch shitty, then he saw that instagram post and changed his mind.

Yeah, that's what I said.

So he happens to post the clip of the back to back to back HR off the pitcher that was starting the next game.  What do you think he had in mind?
So, posting a video clip of a previous game is mocking?

I'm not blaming his instagram for the score.  I don't like that kind of shit talking/trolling and then not backing it up.  He had a chance to tie the game, and he didn't.  Don't get me wrong, I love the guy.  But that was just stupid.

There’s another beautiful defensive play by Bregman.  About the third or fourth he’s made today.  He also was a part of all the pressure the Astros managed to put on Eovaldi.  How is that not backing it up?

He's played a great game defensively.  He's had a decent offensive night.  I'm just saying that shit is stupid.  And in the biggest clutch at bad, he failed.

I’m at the game so can someone check my math... seems like Astros pitchers have had more 3-ball counts in this game than the rest of the postseason combined, and that the Red Sox did all their damage after falling behind 0-2 or 1-2 in the count. The latter is certainly true of all the batters that reached against Osuna.

Game 4 is a must win. Solid Game 5.

Should have said so is.
