I had a chance to catch the Red Sox/Giants game last night and was surprised to see that both teams played a competitive game. The Red Sox are a veteran team with agressive play while the Giants are a start up team like us. Here's a breakdown of what I saw.
Giants
Defense: Solid play. They made the plays they should have. Vulnerable to stealing. Weak at the catcher position as far as awareness.
Offense: Disciplined at the plate, however not very agressive. They rely mostly on walks. I cant remember any hits by this team.
Pitching: Consistent, yet threw too many balls for an experienced team like the Red Sox.
Strength: 3rd baseman
Overall Grade: C
Red Sox
Defense: This is one of the better fielding and throwing teams in the division. Experienced and they know what to do with the ball. They can break down if runners get on and cause distractions.
Offense: Aggressive at the plate. First six hitters swing bat very well and will put it in play. After the sixth hitter, they will try to bunt because these hitters are not disciplined att he plate.
Pitching: Solid pitching. Accurate with velocity.
Strength: Great at the catcher position.
Overall Grade: B+
