And THAT is what happens when you’re facing the heart of the order but don’t play “no extra base hits” with your outfield. Bad non-call by Cora…

A terrific comeback win which would not have been necessary if Devers doesn't make that 5 run error. Except for that, I thought the Sox played pretty good defense, including Devers on that double play he and Bogey cooked up. Shaw came through big time.

 

Bullpen gave up 1 earned run in 7 innings.

 

Wild card race is now, well, wild. Sox, Jays, Yankees, Mariners, and A's all within 3 games of each other.

It is nice to see Bobby Dee's D getting better.

 

Taylor with the big save.

 

Kike da man!

 

Shaw keeps surprising.

 

Don't get me started on left side IF D.

Two fastballs back to back and right down the middle, and Renfroe could only close his eyes, swing the bat, and hope he hit something.

 

A shout out to jung who says I routinely have to eat my early posts on a game thread. This post was but one of several pessimistic comments on the early stages of last night's game when I was certain our guys were going to be blown away. Cease looked invincible and Seabold vincible.

 

About those 5 unearned runs from Devers error. I know the rules, but usually also think we fans--as opposed to the official scorers--should acknowledge Richards' complicity in giving up 5 hits and 2 walks in the 4th inning Chicago deluge.

Shaw was the savior for the SOX tonight. Note to god, er, I mean Cora. Keep the wearisome JD on the bench and keep Shaw in the line-up until further notice.

 

"Wearisome" JD?

Pitchers often speak of those moments with phrases like "bear down", "grow a pair", and "pick up my teammates"... True aces are able to do it sometimes. Others reveal body language that bodes ill... maybe their arms and focus can only take so much, but what happens after a bad play or bad call or cheap hit says a lot. It's also why I don't offer a qualifying offer to a guy like ERod.
