Great play at home, but dumb play by the Texas runner on 3b.

What was the deal with the 503? It seemed to end just before the game started.

Maybe when things get all messed up for the Sox, we can call it a 503 situation. Right now Tanner Houck is skating on the thin ice of a 501 situation. Playing from behind earlyis an endless loop with the Red Sox

Gloom and doom. Your favorite theme.

 

The Sox hitting is pretty good, and the pitching not so good. Those two parameters keep things interesting.

 

But they do not mean the game is over after 1.5 innings because the Sox are down, 1-0.

you mean... Domb and Bloom.

 

Their favorite theme: "We knew Sale would be good again, one of the these decades!"

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

Abreu goes deep and Sox retake the lead, 3-2.

 

That's Wilyer Abreu, who is somehow behind the Rangers' Wyatt Langford as some people's AL Rookie of the Year favorite.

 

Langford: 1.1 WAR, 0.2 dWAR, 6 HR, 44 RBI, .237 BA, .667 OPS

 

Abreu: 2.4 WAR, 0.3 dWAR, 13 HR, 46 RBI, .269 BA, .832 OPS

[Tedballgame]

Put that down as one of the many stupid base running plays of the year.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

I don't care if the baserunner is "out of it" because his shoulder hurts -- doesn't the first base coach remind him how many outs there are, in a one-run game, with a teammate on third in a sacrifice fly situation?

[Tedballgame]

By the way, its 8/14 not 7/14.

[jgar658]

Did Yoshida crossed the plate ahead of the DP?

[jgar658]

It seems the NESN announcer is confused.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Devers tried to prevent the run from scoring. Maybe his sore shoulder is affecting his brain.

[jgar658]

Houck 101 pitches still there

[Tedballgame]

Casas is an obvious head case and prima donna. He has had plenty of ABs at Worcester. He is refusing to come up to the Red Sox.

[Tedballgame]

Cora said as much in an interview a few days ago.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

It appears the SOX have another reliever in waiting. His name is Penrod and he's been a starter at WOO with an ERA of 6.66. He's just been moved to relieving duties. He throws around 97mph.

[Tedballgame]

Can BB not be horrible tonight?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Never a doubt.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Sgt Garcia seems to be a good pick-up by the FO.

[FredLynn]

I don’t remember ever seeing such an awful bullpen. Just disgusting.

Full throttle!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Thanks, chUMP.

[Tedballgame]

Garcia is a disaster.

[Tedballgame]

Can we get this clown out of the game

[Tedballgame]

Raffy should have went right to first

[Tedballgame]

Textbook defense by the Sox.
