At no point did I enjoy this Red Sox game. Don’t even think I smiled once during this experience. Seems extremely unlikely that I will again until tomorrow at the earliest.
Garrett Crochet Vs. Tarik Skubal
Win Probability Added (WPA):
Crochet: 4.98
Skubal: 3.87
CLUTCH:
Crochet: 0.81 (Great)
Skubal: -0.99 (Poor)
On top of leading the league in IP & K's, Crochet helps his team win more than Skubal helps his team win.
On one hand, I love that they could clinch tomorrow while I’m in the stands. On the other, I feel bad that the people calling these games all year long won’t be on the call for it if it happens. Apple TV shouldn’t have exclusive rights to games like these.

Crochet told Cora yesterday he was only going to make one call to the pen 🤯 ☎️
"He was in the dugout with me... he's like, 'No, ONE. It's gonna be straight to Chappy.'"
HIM. 🐷
I’m sorry, but there’s a 0% chance that this is true. You don’t live your whole life a Red Sox fan and then become a Yankee fan because your relative pitches for them. Root for their personal success, sure, but that’s it. 50+ years loving the Sox and now you’re a Yankee fan? No.
