7/26 Braves @ SOX 7:10PM ET

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

As pathetic as Dugo has been of late, that's how good Casas has been.

[Maxbialystock]

I cannot tell you how impressed I am with Casas getting that dinger off a first pitch.

[vegasbob]

Casas cashes the check to score one.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

No quit on this SOX team.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Mo Casas!

[vegasbob]

Need to get the singles right before the HR next time around. This game has the makings of a 9th inning walkoff by the home team. Need it that way due to Yankees leading Mets 3-1 in 7th

[vegasbob]

Verdugos entire body language is so atypical of where he was in May/June. He's beaten down. Not looking right at all

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Turner is money!

[vegasbob]

I was thinking that when down 3-2, 2 on , 2 outs there is no one I'd rather see batting than Justin Turner from this roster.

[d-money]

Beautiful just beautiful. Nice moxie.

[d-money]

Huge inning coming up.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Obviously he's in a bad slump. It happens to the best of them. He'll get out of it.

[d-money]

Come on Schreiber

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Isn't this Martin's inning?

[Maxbialystock]

Dugo ain't pretty out there in RF, but he is earning his pay tonight with his glove. Two excellent grabs--difference-makers.

[Maxbialystock]

I would pooh-pooh that, but not when he is playing such excellent defense. So, yes, he'll come around.

 

Vegasbob is right about Dugo's body language at the plate.

He's not as pretty as Acuna, but he's pretty enough.

[d-money]

Let’s go!!!!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I would pooh-pooh that, but not when he is playing such excellent defense. So, yes, he'll come around.

 

Vegasbob is right about Dugo's body language at the plate.

 

 

He's very relaxed at the plate. Same as he's been since he joined the SOX. And yes, batting slumps do happen.

[Maxbialystock]

Duran, Yoshida--yes, Yoshida--Duvall, and Dugo are all hitless tonight. Turner has two lovely rbi's from that double, and Devers and Casas have solo dingers.

 

What an amazing game this is, and I'm getting to watch it even though normally, as it was last night, it would be blacked out.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Duvall got all of that.

[Jasonbay44]

This team is fun to watch right now

[Maxbialystock]

Did I say Duvall is over the hill, untradeable, etc, etc?

 

Yes, I did. Boy am I smart.

 

Great dinger, Duvall!!!!!

[Jasonbay44]

Casas is on some type of fire right now

[d-money]

Needed that . Yes!

[Jasonbay44]

Is Arroyo really the fastest pinch runner we have? Hopefully that’s something we can upgrade lol

[d-money]

This team is fun to watch right now

 

Yes it is. I love the fact that casas is turning it around here.

[illinoisredsox]

Not enough to overturn

[illinoisredsox]

Surprised that was confirmed. Thought it would just stand.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Not enough to overturn

 

Yup.
