Let's see... a homer would make it 6-5...but it's a deep fly ball to the warning track.
2 outs...

The five guys with the most strike outs in the league getting hits off of Perez.

And he blows it....well not quite we're still winning, but with Francona yanking him, that pretty much means he's done as the closer.

There's the homer...
6-5 now

TX just won on a walkoff homer by Profar!
Has Francona cost us this game by using Perez???

I'm not happy now.

Joe Smith on......single!

Francona is now looking like a goat. Who cares about Perez's ego. This game is too important to mess with.

I fear we will be tied for the WC with TX soon.

Ball one...ball two...

WHY did Francona stay with Perez???

3 and one count...

I have only been listening to this inning.

I would have to say not yet.

I think Francona had to put him in to see if he had any stuff at all, now he knows 100% he can't use him. And he has to find someone he can. I think he did pull him a little late.

Now they put the tying run on and the winning run at the plate.

Ball 4!
*&^%%$#@!!!@!

2 on, 2 out for the rookie Arcia....

And now Smith can't get anyone out.

That is the question, he should have had him on a much shorter leash.

Strike two and finally.
