6/24 @ Rays

John Henry doesn't own the SOX; Wacha does. Btw, JD's batting average may need a parachute.

[d-money]

This offense looks pathetic tonight thus far.

[Maxbialystock]

Is Wacha this good?

 

He definitely is tonight. He has the Sox lineup mesmerized and helpless. His command is good, his changeup is really good, and his fastball might as well be 103 mph instead of the 93 mph it is. I think he has done a good job of mixing pitches and hitting the corners.

[Maxbialystock]

WEEI guys and the cameraman are making it clear how highly strung Pivetta is tonight. Pounding things in the dugout.

[d-money]

Gotta throw strikes.

Well just great after this offense looked pathetic last night.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

How now dumb Lowe.

[Maxbialystock]

Wander Franco had an amazing debut--dinger, double, and 3 rbi's--in game 1 and has been hitless in 2 games since. Pivetta K'd him twice tonight so far. WEEI guys can't say enough in praise of Franco, which is probably valid.

[Maxbialystock]

How now dumb Lowe.

 

I prefer to call the Sox infield geniuses for realizing he screwed up. It was not that obvious.

[Maxbialystock]

Sox are hitting a whole lot of popups.

[Maxbialystock]

Apparently Pivetta was the one who noticed the Lowe mistake.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Nice 9-iron by VAZ.

[redsoxrules]

Vazquez playing cricket out there

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

DalbeK

[Maxbialystock]

Dalbec lucky. That was strike 3.

 

Justice prevails. He swings and missed at a fastball right down the middle.

[d-money]

Embarrassing offense tonight. Can pivetta keep matching him?

[Maxbialystock]

Sliders now instead of knuckle curves.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Which makes more sense? The SOX being in 1st place or the catcher leading the team in stolen bases?

[TylerD]

Settle down big dick.

[redsoxrules]

Holy s*** renfroe

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Web gem by Renfroe.

Web gem by Renfroe.

 

 

This guy is full of surprises.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Renfroe is probably the SOX best everyday defensive player.

[d-money]

Get the damn offense going! Let’s go!!!!!

[Maxbialystock]

WEEI guys have not commented on this, but Pivetta is not throwing a high percentage of strikes. 37/69 = 54%. But he also has 6 K's to 2 BB's and of course no hits thru 5 innings.

[redsoxrules]

Interesting that they pulled wacha already

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Some things never change.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Interesting that they pulled wacha already

 

You can thank VAZ for that.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Unfortunately, the Rays have McHugh waiting in the pen.

Great AB discipline by Bogey, make Rasmussen throw more
