Great game so far by Bard...shows he has the stamina to be a really good starter for the Sox...hopefully today is just a hint of things to come from him! -

I am all for letting Daniel get himself out of a high leverage situation, test his mettle. But, I don't think he has anything left. Gotta hook him here. Yikes. -

Bard's had it. Time to get him out of there. When Eva is coming to the plate, you want to put as many men on base as possible. :-( -

Stupid. Why was he left in there? Tito? Is that you? Now we give Luke Scott a chance to really bury us. -

Methinks Bob and Bobby didn't know something we all knew already: once Bard loses the plate, he ain't findin' it again. -

Perhaps, as someone suggested on another thread about BV's comments about Youkilis, "he had a reason". -

I thought we had enough of the "leave the starter in too long when he is out of gas" in the past!

The thought was probably to save Morales for the 8th, but the 8th may not matter now if things go awry here. -

Agree Space. Give Bard a chance to get those tough late game outs but at a point you've gotta prioritize winning the game over teaching a lesson.
Bobby V just handed TB a run. Very, very poor managing in my opinion. Bard should have been out after the Jennings hit. -

Brainy Valentine has suddenly gone brain dead! Bard ran out of gas three hitters prior to (finally) being lifted. Nice call, Bobby!
