Red Sox (TBD) vs Brewers (Civale): 5/27/25, 7:40pm

It's not so much on Chapman but on the really bad hitters the Sox run up to the plate then quickly follow back to the dugout.

Story is the team leader in leaving guys on base 

[Tedballgame]

Abreu saves the game

 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Great play by Abreu.

Damn, I was just ready to post that Sox win w/o an RBI.

[Tedballgame]

The Red Sox don't lead MLB in one run loses for nothing.

[FredLynn]

I predict that the Flops will be at least 12 games under .500 by the ASB.

[Tedballgame]

Even if the Sox take the lead, Cora will bring in Zach Kelly and he will blow it.

You're right. JH paid a lot of money for these one run losses 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

When's the last time Story's been at 3rd?

[Tedballgame]

Good thing the Red Sox extended Rafaela before he left for 10 years and 300 million.

He stepped on it on his way out to play shortstop.

[iortiz]

Chapman and actually the entire BP has been overused and it’s starting to taxing us but the real problem has been this anemic offense. Not sure what in the hell are they waiting for to call up Anthony. It’s beyond me. 

[Tedballgame]

This is pathetic

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Golden Sombrero for Duran. Sox will have to order some more 

[Tedballgame]

First and third and no outs and don't score. Fire the hitting coach. Fire Cora. Fire John Henry!

Good one.

This is going to be another very tough loss if so…

Oh-it’s been over for some time.

This team absolutely sucks

Nah, we’ve seen this one before at least a couple times.

When Fred's right, he's right.

Agree.  Chapman didn't have it tonight, plus Milwaukee seemed to love his fastball.  

But beyond any question is the abysmal lack of hitting.  The 10th inning being a classic example of how awful the Sox hitting is.  Men on 1st and 3d with no outs--and no runs scored.   Plus our 1 run was off a WP.  

[vegasbob]

Could easily be the worst performance by the lineup of the year.  

The merits of Cora will not be a settled question but he does not seem to have much of a positive effect on the  tendencies of his team at bat, so why keep him.

[Tedballgame]

This game is over

[illinoisredsox]

Okay Hendricks, you wanted a bigger role; take it.

Diversity.

[Tedballgame]

Its becoming common for the Sox season to be basically over by June 1st.

He is a waste of money. Paying guys millions to rehab for a year and then hope they are good the next year is a HUGE mistake and is front office malpractice.

[FredLynn]

I am so disgusted by this awful bunch of bums. Not worth watching at all.

when does football season start again?

[Maxbialystock]

As I've said a thousand times, this is all Cora's fault.  He keeps using the wrong batting orders.  Any of us could do better.   

I sneered at Mayer in his first game, and boy was I wrong--and never was I happier to be wrong.
