7/10 Texas Rangers at Fenway

[Natick to NC]

Moooooookie

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Just using the law of average or randomness, one would think the SOX system could have developed one good starter after so many,many years.

[Jasonbay44]

Machado ties it up in Baltimore.

[S5Dewey]

He didn't advance and was out on a force out at 2B by the next batter. I would have put the error squarely on Moreland if he had adanced.

 

OK. I just came back into the room and I thought the runner had gone to 2b. My bad. Thanks

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Maybe the powers that be should make the bases out of foam rubber.

[Maxbialystock]

Actually, I was sure he went to 2b until I saw the force out. Terrible camera work by NESN.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That was a perfect example of the 3rd spot hitter protecting the clean-up hitter. The pitcher isn't going to walk 2 batters in a row.

[Jasonbay44]

Moreland seems to have a lot of good AB's with runners in scoring position. I feel like he has a lot of sac fly's, RBI groundouts, etc.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Someone's going to get killed around that Pesky Pole.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Shouldn't Beeks be pitching behind a screen?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Steak dinner for JBJ.

[Jasonbay44]

The defense continues to save Beeks. GREAT catch by JBJ

[d-money]

Get beeks out of the game.

[Station 13]

He is getting smack around.

[d-money]

I seen enough of this guy. The game’s still in play.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Poor kid. But he's young; plenty of time to change professions.

[d-money]

Just lousy location on his pitches.

I know who beeks reminds me of splinter....a little kitten lost in the jungle.

Beeks uses 49 pitches to go 2.1, gives up a run, 4 hits, a walk, a HBP, and leaves runners at 2nd and 3rd with one out. Plus the out was a replay highlight dive by JBJr. Nothing to see here, and Cora did leave him in a bit long.

I hope they wait until he is dominating AAA, before they bring him back up. He isn't ready.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Those runs will be charged to the kitten.

[d-money]

Just like that we have a brand new game. This offense needs to get back to work.

[S5Dewey]

As much as I like Workman, what just happened is a good example of what I don't like about ERA's. Workman gave up a double that scored two runs but in terms of ERA he's treated like an innocent bystander.

[Station 13]

Beeeks control was so awful. He nearly hit just about every guy.

[S5Dewey]

Poor kid. But he's young; plenty of time to change professions.

 

Great line, btw. LOL

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I hope they wait until he is dominating AAA, before they bring him back up. He isn't ready.

 

The really sad part is that he's the best starter the SOX have in the farm system.

[jung]

Not sure we are really designed for these "bull pen" games. But the Rangers pen has just been abysmal. I will be surprised if we don't score more runs.

[Natick to NC]

Beeks is just terrible

It's not Workmans fault that Beeks put him in a s***** situation. Its not like Workman but the runners on, and he retired the next two batters. Beeks deserves full blame for the runs.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Ricardo's in the game. "Hey, Lucy, I'm home."
