Re: Boston Red Sox - 2006

That ball probably would have gone over the wall without Pena's influence, but it should have been caught easily. He just drifted back like he had no idea where the wall was and then jumped to catch it when he didn't need to. Ugly play.

Foulke's velocity was down today, I didn't see anything over 85. The few changeups he threw looked good and were 76 so there was still a good differential in speed between the two. I think Foulke (and Schilling, for that matter) will likely struggle a bit wirh inconsistent velocity from game to game. He threw one slider that was ugly. I've never seen Foulke throw a quality slider, he should just dump the pitch.
