Verlander got it done.
Looked like he was starting to overthrow for those last two batters. I'd have a reliever warming.

Love how the announcers just drop "Rupert and Lachlan Murdoch" as if they're not the two most toxic people in America today.

It's always the case. The other team isn't allowed to be worth a shit.
I marvel at how a bunch of folks sitting in our respective mom's basements - with most of us either never having had or well past our athletic primes - are quick to jump on players who are probably well beyond the most dexterous people we have ever met when they struggle against their true peers. Sports is hard but here on SoSH, we know how to do better. Its called "trying!"

As soon as we're done here I'm going to go to Fenway and hit a batting practice homerun
