New Pitch Count/Homerun Count For Franconas Starters

[BigFish]

Terry is trying something new......120 pitch per game count and he is allowing the pitchers to give up at least six homers each per game before he lifts them........seems to be working! Under the new system the Sox are 1 and 1! Best part is the pitchers don't wear themselves out because if they give up the 6 homers....they never make the 120 pitch limit Its a beautiful thing!

wow! keep the starters fresh AND STILL play .500 ball! the man must be a freekin genius!

wasn't that Graddy Littles way of managing!!!

No Raider Ron....Grady Little did not have a 6 homerun count.....Francona is the first in the history of baseball to institute this bit of genious!
