9/5 @ San Diego

[Maxbialystock]

What the hell was that!!?? A dinger by Young pinch-hitting for Holaday.

[Wade Boggs]

Max, I'll be quiet . I have the cold hand.

[Jasonbay44]

Good play by the Padres CF to hustle all the way and keep Hill on 2nd. Have seen it happen a lot of times where that's easily a triple.

[SoxHop]

Here we go......... come on get the lead....

[Maxbialystock]

Now a double by Hill, also pinch-hitting and with the wisdom not to go for 3. San Diego reportedly has a lousy bullpen. Can theirs be worse than ours?

[Jasonbay44]

I wish the Padres telecast would stop using the "behind home plate camera" it is a pain in the ass to watch a game this way.

[Jasonbay44]

C'mon Xander, get the run home

 

Edit: Sorry, forgot Holt is hitting 2nd today.

Good thing it's not Orsillo's fault.

[Jasonbay44]

Are you f***ing kidding me? How does this team find ways to do this s***?

[Wade Boggs]

Can somebody get a clutch hit.

[Station 13]

Does Pedroia come through anymore? He hit a weak grounder everytime in these situation.

[d-money]

You have got to be s***ing me. Sandy Leon has to make contact. This team struggles to do the little things.

[Bellhorn04]

He moved the runner to third at least. It's on the 2 guys who K'd.

[d-money]

I rather lose 10-0 then lose these games

like this. This team's beyond frustrating to watch.

[Maxbialystock]

So Farrell pinch hits for Holaday and Ross and gets a dinger and a double, but the top part of the order--Holt batting 2d but replaced by righty Leon against the lefty reliever--craps in their pants with a ground out and 2 K's.

 

Too many choke artists on this team.

Cut them all.

[Wade Boggs]

Will somebody get on so Ortiz can get a chance. That's all you can ask for.

[Maxbialystock]

Cut them all.

 

Fair enough. That's clearly not an option.

[a700hitter]

I had West Coast trips. Playing those s*** ass A's to start off the trip tricked us into thinking this would be easy.

[Thunder]

I'm going into retirement.

[a700hitter]

I'm going into retirement.

You were warned but you went ahead anyway. You cocky bastard.

[NativeBostonian]

I'm going into retirement.

 

Don't worry, bud. My mojo isn't much to write home about either.

[d-money]

Another pathetic loss. This team makes you scratch your head at times.

[Oscars]

"The best offence in baseball" has had many games where the lack of 1 timely hit has killed them .

Today is another example with an 0 for 8 with RISP

[d-money]

Won't be shocking if the division winner ends up with 88 to 90 wins the most. Embarrassing today. Buckwheat pitching tomorrow.

[Maxbialystock]

Hard to believe two straight losses like this. Also hard to blame Thunder.

 

The pinch hitters Young and Hill had a home run and a double. The regulars--Pedroia, Holt/Leon, Bogaerts, Betts, Ramirez, Bradley, Moncada, Holaday, and the pitcher had I think 5 singles in 9 innings. HanRam had 3 singles but struck out on 3 pitches with men on first and second. Pedey, Bogie, and Betts had no hits of any kind.

[NativeBostonian]

I'll take a pretty good offense that scores consistently over an offense that scores 27 runs in two nights then score nothing in the next two against bad teams.

[Kimmi]

Pathetic display by the offense again today. Shut down by Edwin Jackson. Are you kidding me?

[Station 13]

I heard this before.

[Station 13]

That and losing a game E-rod not hit the opponent for 8 inning. Are you kidding me?
