Leiter almost got taken yard. He's been trash the entire time here. Never should have gone back to him. He got lucky.

Maybe they should have started the inning with Mayza, it couldn't have been any worse. Boone should have started the inning with Holmes and no one on base. It was the right time to get him back in after last night. Could have rolled the dice with Stroman and a 4 run lead.

one run game in the 8th inning and the worst pitcher on your roster is in? WTF?

Leiter still in to face Rocchio. Sinker inside, ball 1 Curve just inside middle middle, foul tipped. 1-1 Arrggg!!! Splitter at the very bottom, not called. In the middle, 5-10% on Gameday, 2-1. Marginal, but still... Splitter tapped weakly to short, and Volpe must charge, has no shot at Naylor going to 3rd, throws out Rocchio, 1 down.

I wonder if Boone will go to Weaver tonight. Maybe batter by batter with Leiter here, and Kahnle for the potential close? You got away with Leiter. I would have gone to Kahnle. It's a tough tactical spot all the way around. I don't think Kahnle has 6 outs. I don't think Boone wants to pitch Weaver again tonight.

I know we still get two in the BX but this just feels bad.

Leiter stays in. Should not be able to keep Kwan from getting the tying run home. Infield in I assume. Takes a cutter outside middle for a strike. Takes a splitter low. 1-1 Takes a splitter going outside, 2-1 Where's that swing and miss stuff now, Cashman?

Right and I think you only trust Stroman if its multiple runs and thats why Chi's point of using him up 6-2 is valid.

Lucky lucky lucky. Curve on the inside corner, and Kwan takes a HR hack, most unlike him, pops it high to the right side, Torres comes in and catches, 2 down, and now the infield can go back.
