Connor Wong with his best game of the season. 

Yup.  And he's the backup.  

[illinoisredsox]

I’m still catching up on the game but through 6, the two Angel pitchers have combined for 16 different letters and 20 letters total in their last names.

[Jasonbay44]

Rough AB for Roman there

The bunt to move runners to 2nd/3rd is useless. Walk Romy , burn Toro and Anthony goes vs LHer

[Maxbialystock]

Those were excellent pitches to Anthony.  

[FredLynn]

Not impressed by Anthony at all 

[vegasbob]

Probably ball 4 ?

A bunt!  A bunt!  A palpable bunt!  And Hamilton did it.

Are these the Red Sox?  You know, the team which is worthless without Devers.  I don't know how many times I've read he is literally irreplaceable.  

Only Tom Petty and David Bowie are irreplaceable.

That's the way it turned out, but I like a sacrifice that moves 2 runners and takes away a GIDP.

Especially with Duran facing a lefty. It was a productive out, just didn’t work out

I am.  That was a good call by the Angels bench and excellent pitches by Detmers, who then K'd Story too.

Since the 1st, 6 scoreless innings by Sox pitching, including 3 by Buehler.  

It's heckuva ballgame.

THis game is just reeking of snake bites. If we can pull this out, maybe we can break free from these types of games continuously going bad.

9 hits to 3.

Running into outs

Bad Ump calls.

Buehler's Month off.

 

[vegasbob]

Bachman looked pretty good

[Maxbialystock]

That hurt.  No outs and a man on 3b.  

[vegasbob]

That's what you get for missing chances. Whitlock could have stepped off and caught Wade

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I would walk the bases loaded and then call for the triple play.

[Jasonbay44]

Yet another costly error leads to a run

Good points.  

[moonslav59]

Killed by their 3 bottom hitters- all under .560 to start the day.

[vegasbob]

Whitlock has trouble with 2 inning stints. Not a strikeout pitcher

 

[illinoisredsox]

Abreu has a great arm but he has no idea where he’s throwing it.  An accurate one hopper there nails the runner at home.

This game is definitely  reeking of something. It rhymes with hit 

[Maxbialystock]

Whitlock at 34 pitches showing a ton of heart.

A little snake bit this inning.  That first hit was very lucky for the Halos.  Two poor throws by Wong and Abreu.  A perfectly placed ground ball single.  He’s not exactly getting lit up this inning.

Indeed, doo-doo.

[moonslav59]

This is just plain sick.

Who’s winning?

Looking for the .500 level and Angel's are accommodating
