White Sox (Martin) vs Red Sox (Pivetta): 9/6/24, 7:10pm

The Flops are in danger of winning

Rafaela not only hits important HR's, he usually hits them, wait for it, with men on base.

Very good start by Pivetta.

BTW, I'd noticed that Zack Kelly has 4 pitches in his arsenal, which he uses evenly. Why not stretch him out in the offseason and try him as a starter?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Well, Beni has something most major leaguers don't have; a WS ring.

And well-deserved.

I've beeb avoiding the game threads, but felt the desire to add a factoid:

Since June 1st, and before today's 1-2 game w a BB, EValdez has a .902 OPS in about 100 PAs.

.299 BA

.374 OBP

This guy raked over the minors for about a year and a half with HOU, before the Vaz trade brought he and Abreu to BOS.

(If only he could field a position without embarrassing himself.)

I'm over and out...

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The Red Sox are now 39.5 games ahead of the White Sox.
