Hoping that Maddon over thinks and over manages this thing.

I disagree with taking him out. The ump mused strike 3. 4 run lead....at least give him 1 more batter.

Maddon messing up!

Hendricks' strike 3 was not called, just like some pitches for Miller. If ump keeps favoring the hitters like he is, Lester and Chapman will be hard pressed also.

I was actually thinking this, too. Coming back from 3-1.

Shit happens.

Even if we lose tonight, we are still the Al Champions and most people including me never expected that.

BUT.............. us old timers know this..............

This game ain't over yet.

I'd have Lackey and Arrieta warming up for whatever may be needed, zero reason to wait

That has to be the first ever WP scoring 2 runs in the World Series. Ross may retire with a concussion!

Hey Joe....Jon looks good eh? Thought you weren't going to bring him in the middle of an inning?

Smoltz nailed it.

Not over yet. MUST play defense. Can't give up anything else and expect to come back and win this.

Maddon is a damn moron.

With a guy on base and he can't even throw over. Such a dumb decision.

Holbrook struggling.

Put Joe West back there to finish this. He was by far the best behind the plate.

These managers need to go back to the old way to a degree. This pulling guys after 6 is ridiculous

Paranoid about the ability of his bullpen and his Cy Young contending starter. Maddon like Joe West, prone to making it about himself.
