I can *kind* of see why they might think that a leadoff walk leads to more multiple-run innings than a leadoff home run. The defensive inefficiency of holding on a runner, putting the pitcher into a stretch. But the chance for a DP completely buries those factors.

 

 

What? The double play is not really worth mentioning in this argument.

Adults; everyone did their drinking the weekend before.

 

Yeah, sure, I did my drinking.

 

Halloween on Thursday sucks. Every party and/or night out does it the weekend before, but then there are kids costume things all week long, and there will be carryover into the weekend.

 

Anyway, it's a perfectly reasonable night to schedule a potential game 7.

also, what is with walking ortiz intentionally in the third inning of a scoreless game with only one out? he's been hot, but it's silly to treat him like he's steroid-era bonds. that walk tacked on 2% to the sox' win expectancy, by itself.

I wonder how Boston fans feel about this as a whole.

I think the easiest thing to do is that whatever percentage you want to assign, 2004 and 2013 balance out and he gets full credit when you combine the two.

The ones I've seen feel like Cherington cleaned up Epstein's mess and give much more credit to the deeper organization than they do Epstein personally.
