Re: Red Sox 9th inning vs Mo

Clearly you missed something as Salty missed the 1st pitch and fouled off
another.

JJ fouled off his 1st pitch therefore your statement is incorrect somewhat
because
the 3rd strikes was indeed down the middle..

The statement ala Manny who pinched hit
once against Mo and took 3 down the middle without swinging is true..hence"
never taking your bat off your shoulders".

I think Manny was traded not long after that fateful event.

Can't do anything against Mo when the last two hitter don't even take
their bat of their shoulder. Salty and Reddick standing there looking at
a called third strike on a pitch down the middle. They needed to have
been swinging. Taking leasons from Drew and Manny?
