Didn’t miss a thing.
Now I know why I don’t watch baseball anymore.
The Sox pitcher was sacrificed.......would they have left him in if he had a contract?

I made it through 16 and then I had to turn it. Props to you since I believe you are in the Houston area - two hours ahead of me on the west coast. I think a game like this; a testament to great pitching, is nice to see once in awhile, but 18 innings is a bit too "epic" for me.
Ad far as Eovaldi goes, I can see why you would think that, but I would also say that once the bullpen is used it, somebody has to have the game to the end. The Sox babied him this year, keeping IP and pitch counts down. The may have been a bit of a stretch out for him, but not that much given how he is normally used. In the WS and playoffs you will things that you would not see in the regular season such as starters coming in to get saves, etc.
Both teams really need their starters to get deep in tonight's game!
