EJax's chance

"Great moments are born from great opportunity.

And that's what you have here tonight, boys.

That's what you've earned here, tonight."

Herb Brooks

Tonight EJax gets the Red Sox for the 2nd time in a week.  The Sox patience at the plate should severely challenge Jackson's command or lack thereof.  The Sox are a great hitting team playing at home and likely with an edge. 

It's a heck of an opportunity because very few pitchers would perform well in this situation.   A strong performance tonight would be a a major skin for Jackson to tack on his wall.  A lesser performance than last week is almost a given based on the task at hand.

Go get em EJax!

E-Jax's Career Vs. Boston:

33.1 IP, 4.54 ERA, only 2 HRs, but a a very encouraging 95 tOPS+ against.

Considering he’s pitching for his spot in the rotation, I expect him to pitch very well.

Not a great weekend for any of our pitchers. Well, maybe Birkins. I hate Fenway.

Longlorious.
