He posted Chisholm in the No. 6 spot for Game 2 against right-hander Brayan Bello. He is a guy that wears his emotions on his sleeve, Boone said prior to Game 2 at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday. Wasn't necessarily how I would handle it, but then again, I don't need him to put a happy face on. I need him to go out and play his butt off for us tonight. That's what I expect to happen.
I felt like [Fried's] command was not as good those final few, Boone said. He's just making so many big pitches, and his stuff was good. He gave us what we needed and felt really good about the outing he put forth, but I felt pretty convicted. Especially we got the double play, it's like, Let's go get one more hitter and be good.
