Mahle at 96 pitches of 1 hit, 6 shutout innings. Doesn’t bring him out for the 7th AND doesn’t pitch his best relievers (Amir Garrett)...bullpen gives up 4 runs
Francona, a good manager with at least 5% of a brain, does the exact opposite. Leaves Bieber out for the 8th despite throwing 98 pitches AND when he gives up a base runner, francona brings in his best reliever.
It’s not hard to manage a pitching staff, but David bell certainly makes it.
Francona wasn't even at the game.
