TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE

Game #33 of the Season – Minnesota Twins @ Boston Red Sox

Pitching Matchup – Vance Worley vs. Ryan Dempster

The Red Sox return home to Fenway Park where they begin a 4 game series with the Minnesota Twins. Ryan Dempster takes the mound for Boston in the opener against Vance Worley for the Twins.

Minnesota had runners at the corners with two outs in the top of the 2nd when Dempster left a slider out over the plate and Brian Dozier lined it in to the gap for a double to score 2 runs and give the Twins an early 2-0 lead. The Red Sox loaded the bases in the bottom of the 2nd but Worley would get Pedro Ciriaco to ground out to end the threat and wiggle out of danger as the Twins had a 2-0 lead after 2 innings of play.

The game remained 2-0 until the top fo the 5th when Brian Dozier drew a 1 out walk and then came in to score when Jamey Carroll doubled off the monster with 2 outs to drive in Dozier and make it a 3-0 game. Jarrod Saltalamacchia doubled to lead off the bottom of the 5th for Boston and moved to 3rd when Middlebrooks flew out to the warning track in CF. Pedro Ciriaco picked up an RBI when he put the ball in play and grounded out to Dozier to get Boston on the board and make it a 3-1 game.

The Twins got a lead off double from Joe Mauer in the top of the 6th and he scored on a ground out by Willingham to increase the Twins lead to 4-1. Ryan Doumit doubled with 2 outs and that would knock Dempster out of the game after another mediocre outing. Andrew Miller would come in to replace Dempster on the mound and strike out Parmelee to end the inning with Minnesota leading 4-1. Worley retired the Sox in order in the bottom of the 6th and we would go to the 7th inning with the Twins leading 4-1.

Andrew Miller pitched a dominant 1-2-3 top of the 7th striking out 2 batters and getting a weak grounder to keep the Sox within striking distance at 4-1. Jarrod Saltalamacchia just missed a HR by inches with 1 out in the bottom of the 7th as he crushed a ball that hit the top of the wall and he ended up with his 2nd double of the game. Worley got Middlebrooks to pop out for the 2nd out and Ciriaco grounded out to Florimon at short to end the inning as Worley gets out of trouble and the Twins had a 4-1 lead after 7 innings of play.

Miller remained in the game for Boston with lefties Mauer and Mourneau coming up in the top of the 8th. Miller got Hicks to fly out to start the inning but Mauer would line a double down the LF line with one out. Mourneau grounded out for the 2nd out and Koji Uehara would come in to relieve Miller on the mound with Josh Willingham coming up. Uehara came in and struck out Willingham to end the inning and strand Mauer in scoring position to keep it a 4-1 game. Worley was still in the game for the Twins and got the 1st two outs in the bottom of the 8th before surrendering a 2 out single to Dustin Pedroia to keep the inning alive. David Ortiz was up next and he just missed a 2-run HR when he crushed a ball down the RF line but it was foul by a few inches. Ortiz eventually singled and Pedroia scampered to 3rd base to setup runners at the corners with two outs and bring the tying run to the plate with Sox slugger Mike Napoli coming up. Twins manager Ron Gardenhire came out of the dugout to get Worley who was tiring after throwing 108 pitches and made the move to Jared Burton to face Napoli for a huge at bat with 2 outs. Napoli hammered a line drive about as hard as you can hit a ball but it was hit directly at Florimon at short who made the catch to end the inning as the Sox can't capitalize on a good chance and we would go to the 9th inning with the Twins leading 4-1.

Ryan Doumit doubled to begin the top of the 9th and the Twins had runners at the corners with 1 out but Uehara got Pedro Florimon to hit in to a huge 6-4-3 inning ending double play to keep it a 4-1 game. Minnesota closer Glen Perkins came in to pitch the bottom of the 9th as the Red Sox came up for their last at bat trailing by 3 runs. Aaron Hicks made a nice running catch on a fly ball towards the gap by nava for the 1st out of the inning. Saltalamacchia grounded out to Florimon and the Red Sox were down to their final out. Will Middlebrooks grounded out to Florimon for the final out as Perkins pitches a 1-2-3 bottom of the 9th and the Twins win 4-1.

* The Twins take the opener of this 4 game series as they beat the Red Sox 4-1 behind a strong performance from Vance Worley and some timely hitting

* Vance Worley was outstanding for Minnesota allowing just 1 run over 7.2 strong innings of work on the mound as he kept the Red Sox lineup off balance and unable to string any hits together. Worley got off to a rough start to the season but may be turning it around as he improves his record to 3-3 on the season with a 5.03 ERA

* Ryan Dempster continues to give the Red Sox mediocre start after mediocre start as he pitched 5.2 innings and allowed 4 runs on 6 hits while walking 2. Dempster is now 4-3 on the season with a 4.39 ERA

* The Red Sox will send the struggling Felix Doubront to the mound tomorrow against Kevin Correia for the Twins. Doubront is still in search of his 1st win of the season as he has a record of 0-2 with a 4.54 ERA on the season. Correia has struggled for the Twins and is also in search of his 1st win of the season as he has a record of 0-3 on the season with a 5.46 ERA. Doubront needs to start pitching better or he may be at risk of losing his spot in the rotation and possibly being demoted to AAA

Re: TNK - 2013 REALISM SLIDERS

Been using for these sliders for a little while now and they work great except for one issue I'm having, and that's a lack of walks. And it's not because I'm not being patient or taking pitches. I just can't get deep into counts because I don't get a lot of foul balls. A lot of times when I have 2 strikes the ball will be put in play even if my timing is bad and the ball is outside the PCI. Seems like the ball should be fouled off but instead I hit a weak pop up or grounder. I've raised the Foul Frequency slider and lowered the Timing slider but it doesnt seem to matter. Any tips on what I can do to get more foul balls?

What hitting mechanic are you using?

Do you have the settings exactly as they are in post #1 of the thread?

Using Timing hitting. All sliders are set exactly from this thread, except I bumped up Fouls and down Timing a bit.

TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE

Game #34 of the Season – Minnesota Twins @ Boston Red Sox

Pitching Matchup – Kevin Correia vs. Felix Doubront

The Red Sox and Twins play game #2 of a 4 game series in Boston. The Twins took game 1 by a score of 4-1 and the Red Sox have lost 2 of their last 3 games after winning 7 straight. Felix Doubront (0-2) and Kevin Correia (0-3) will be the pitching matchup as they both look for their 1st win of the season

The Red Sox had a 3-0 lead after 3 innings as Felix Doubront was sharp early and David Ortiz launched a 2-run HR in the 1st inning. The Twins sent 9 men to the plate as they used 6 hits to put up 4 runs in the top of the 4th to turn a 3-0 deficit into a 4-3 lead. Jonny Gomes tied the game at 4-4 in the bottom of the 4th when he crushed a fastball 421 feet for his 1st HR in a Red Sox uniform. Trevor Plouffe gave the Twins a 5-4 lead with 2 outs in the top of the 6th when he clobbered a curveball from Doubront into the monster seats for a solo HR. Boston had 2 men on with 2 outs in the bottom of the 6th when Ron Gardenhire brought in Brian Duensing to face and he would get Drew as Dozier made a great play on a bouncer up the middle to field it and throw to 1st to just get Drew and end the inning with the Twins leading 5-4 at the end of 6 innings. Junichi Tazawa pitched a 1-2-3 top of the 7th for Boston to keep it a 5-4 game. Pedro Ciriaco singled to lead off the bottom of the 7th and moved into scoring position on a sac bunt by Victorino. Daniel Nava lined out to Carroll at short for the 2nd out and Dustin Pedroia hit a deep fly ball to CF that died on the warning track for the final out of the inning as Duensing wiggles out of danger and we would go to the 8th inning with Minnesota leading 5-4. Tazawa pitched another 1-2-3 inning in the top of the 8th and the score remains 5-4. Casey Fien took over on the mound for Minnesota to begin the bottom of the 8th with a 5-4 lead and issued a 4 pitch walk to David Ortiz to lead off the inning. Fien bounced back nicely as he got Mike Napoli to pop out for a big 1st out of the inning and then registered back to back strikeouts of Saltalamacchia and Gomes to get out of the inning and send the game to the 9th inning with the Twins leading 5-4. Craig Breslow came in to pitch the top of the 9th for Boston and gave up a 1 out single to Plouffe before getting Dozier to ground into a 6-4-3 double play to end the inning and send the game to the bottom of the 9th with Minnesota clinging to a 5-4 lead. Twins closer Glen Perkins came on for the bottom of the 9th looking to close it out and record the save for the 2nd straight night. Stephen Drew reached to lead off the inning on a grounder up the middle as Carroll made a great diving stop but Drew was able to beat the throw to 1st base for a single and the Sox had the tying run on base. Pedro Ciriaco was up next and he fouled off 2 bunt attempts to try and advance the runner but he ended up lining a single to LF to give Boston 2 men on base with nobody out. Shane Victorino laid down a perfect sac bunt to move the runners up as Boston had the tying run on 3rd base and the possible winning run on 2nd base with one out and Daniel Nava coming up. The Twins elected to intentionally walk Nava to load the bases and bring up the double play possibility. Dustin Pedroia came up with the bases loaded and one out as we were primed for a fantastic finish to this game. Perkins jammed Pedroia with a fastball and got him to ground to Carroll at shortstop who flipped to 2nd and Dozier made a nice turn as Pedroia hits into a game ending 6-4-3 double play as the Red Sox lose a heart breaker 5-4.

* The Twins win a tight one 5-4 and have taken the 1st two game of this 4 game series.

* The Red Sox have now lost 3 of their last 4 games and will send John Lackey to the mound tomorrow night against

* Trevor Plouffe paced the Twins offense by going 3 for 4 with a HR and 2 RBI. Kevin Correia earned his 1st win of the season allowing 4 runs in 5.2 innings on the mound.

* Felix Doubront is still win-less on the season as he pitched decent over 6 innings but a bad 4th inning came back to haunt him as he allowed 4 runs in the 4th on 6 hits and then gave up a solo HR to Plouffe in the 6th that broke the 4-4 tie and ended up being the difference in the game.

* Jonny Gomes went 2 for 4 and hit his 1st HR in a Red Sox uniform

Re: TNK - 2013 REALISM SLIDERS

TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE

Game #35 of the Season – Minnesota Twins @ Boston Red Sox

Pitching Matchup – Mike Pelfrey vs. John Lackey

The Red Sox and Twins play game #3 of a 4 game series in Boston as the Twins have taken the 1st two games of the series. Boston looks to get back on track and will send John Lackey to the mound against Mike Pelfrey who has been one of the best starters in the American League early in the season as he comes in with a 3-0 record and in currently 3rd in the AL with a 1.67 ERA.

The Twins opened the scoring in the top of the 2nd on a solo HR by Josh Willingham to take a 1-0 lead. Minnesota increased their lead to 2-0 in the top of the 4th as Willingham doubled and eventually came in to score on an RBI gorund out by Trevor Plouffe. Dustin Pedroia lined a solo HR in to the monster seats in LF to lead off the bottom of the 4th to cut the Twins lead to 2-1. David Ortiz would follow with a single but Pelfrey would bounce back to strike out Napoli, Middlebrooks and Gomes in order to get out of the innning and we would go to the 5th inning with Minnesota leading 2-1. The Twins added a run in the top of the 6th to make it a 3-1 game as Mauer led off the inning with a double and came in to score when Willingham grounded into a double play. Pelfrey got in to trouble in the bottom of the 6th as Napoli singled with 1 out and then Middlebrooks drew a walk to give the Sox two men on with one out. Pelfrey got Jonny Gomes to fly out for the 2nd out of the inning. David Ross was up next and he hit a groundball that hugged the 3rd base line and got past the dive of Plouffe for an RBI single as Napoli scored to cut the Twins lead to 3-2. Pelfrey got some help from his defense as Stephen Drew smoked a ball up the middle but Florimon made a great diving stop and fired a laser to 1st base to get Drew and end the inning as the game would go to the 7th inning with the Twins up 3-2. Lackey finished a good outing as he got through the top of the 7th and was just over 100 pitches in the ballgame. Josh Roenicke pitched the bottom of the 7th for Minnesota and the Sox stranded Ellsbury in scoring position as David Ortiz flew out to Hicks in CF to end the inning and we would go to the 8th with Minnesota leading 3-2. Andrew Miller got Mauer and Mourneau to begin the top of the 8th and Koji Uehara came in to get Willingham for a big 1-2-3 inning. Jared Burton retired the Sox in order in the bottom of the 8th and we would go to the 9th with the Twins holding on to a 3-2 lead. Uehara gave up back to back singles to Doumit and Plouffe to start the top of the 9th as the Twins were looking to add some insurance. Uehara got 2 huge outs as Brian Dozier grounded into a 5-4-3 double play and that would bring up Pedro Florimon with Doumit on 3rd base and 2 outs. Mike Napoli made a run saving diving stop on a grounder by Florimon and flipped the ball from his stomach to Uehara covering the bag for the out to end the inning as Uehara pitches out of a jam and we would go to the bottom of the 9th with the Red Sox needing a run to tie as they trailed 3-2. Minnesota closer Glen Perkins would come on with a 1 run lead looking to close it out and record the save in the bottom of the 9th. David Ross flew out to deep RF for the 1st out and Stephen Drew grounded out for the 2nd out as the Sox were down to their final out. Jacoby Ellsbury kept the Sox hopes alive as he lined a single to CF and the Red Sox would have the tying run on base with Shane Victorino coming up. Victorino hit the ball hard on the ground but Florimon ranged to his left and his throw just beat Victorino to the bag at 1st base for the final out as Perkins records the save for the 3rd straight game as the Twins win 3-2.

* The Twins win 3-2 as they have taken 3 straight games from the Red Sox and will look to complete the 4 game sweep tomorrow.

* The Red Sox have lost 3 straight games and 4 of their last 5

* Mike Pelfrey improves to 4-0 on the season for the Twins with a 1.84 ERA as he has been among the best pitchers in baseball early in the season

* John Lackey was a tough luck loser in this one as he gave the Red Sox 7 strong innings on the mound but was out-pitched by Pelfrey

* The Red Sox will try to avoid the 4 game sweep tomorrow as they send Jon Lester to the mound against Scott Diamond in a battle of lefties. This is a game where Lester needs to step up and pitch like the ace of the staff and stop the bleeding to get his team back on track

Re: TNK - 2013 REALISM SLIDERS

TNK i notice you get a low amount of SO's do you not try to go for them much?

My pitching staff is 11th in the league in strikeouts with 229 in 35 games

That's an average of 6.54 K's per game - nothing wrong with that at all

Re: TNK - 2013 REALISM SLIDERS

Just an FYI guys - I'm done doing the full write ups for games

It takes too much time and my gf is moving in with me in the next couple weeks + we have a baby on the way in October so I want to focus my time on getting as many games in as possible and not spend too much time writing recaps. Plus once she is living here I don't want to feel like a douche typing a novel about each game

I'll still continue to post box scores for pretty much every game and just a brief note about the game. I will be posting a full blown standings/ full Sox stats/league leaders, etc. update at the 41 game mark

I mean with your starters do you regularly ever get 7k+ games

TNK - BOSTON RED SOX FRANCHISE

Game #36 of the Season – Minnesota Twins @ Boston Red Sox

Pitching Matchup – Scott Diamond vs Jon Lester

The Red Sox send Jon Lester to the hill as they look to avoid the 4 game sweep at the hands of the Twins. The Red Sox come in to this game on a 3 game losing streak and have dropped 4 of their last 5 games. Minnesota will have Scott Diamond on the mound looking to complete the 4 game series sweep on the road.

The game was tied 1-1 after 9 innings and was going to be decided by extra innings. Minnesota took a 3-1 lead in the top of the 11th when Jamey Carroll blasted a slider from Tazawa in to the monster seats for a go ahead 2-run HR. Twins closer Glen Perkins pitched a 1-2-3 bottom of the 11th as the Twins win 3-1 in extra innings to sweep the 4 game series at Fenway.

* The Twins come in to Fenway and sweep a 4 game series from the Red Sox who lose their 4th straight game and have now lost 5 of their last 6

* Jon Lester was outstanding for Boston as he pitched 9 innings and allowed just 1 run but his offense let him down.

* Scott Diamond gave the Twins a good start and Anthony Swarzak was excellent out of the pen

* Glen Perkins closed it out to record the save for the 4th day in a row

* The Red Sox will try to get back on track tomorrow as the Toronto Blue Jays come to town to begin a 3 game series. Clay Buchholz will get the ball for Boston and he will be opposed by Brandn Morrow for the Jays
