Bello is imploding 

[FredLynn]

One more run should do it

Game over

Is it "outta here" time yet?

Soon

[FredLynn]

If the FLOPS make the playoffs is would be a sad commentary on baseball

You just said the game is over. How will 'soon' change anything?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Wong just noticed the bases are bigger.

The FLOPS are 4th in ERA in the AL and second in OPS and runs scored. 

So why it that they are struggling to even maintain a wild card spot in the playoffs instead of competing for the division lead??

RISP disease.  We got it worse than most other teams.  

Wait, wait.  I just remembered.   The Sox aren't winning enough because of Wong.

It’s over but unless it’s a blowout sometimes I watch them flail around 

[FredLynn]

At least Wong can run if he makes it on base 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The camera man tried to get that over the wall.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Only a psychiatrist can help stop Story from swinging at that outside pitch.

[Maxbialystock]

Great start and terrible finish to the bottom of the 3d.   Yoshida's OPS continues to plummet.  

3-2 Dodgers.

I would be more than happy to recommend Dr Lecter.

[Maxbialystock]

Another at bat by Wong when he utterly failed to drive in a run.  What liability he is.

Yup

He is. First extra base hit ALL YEAR!

Small part, brilliantly played by Anthony Hopkins.  

Terrific 4th by Bello.

One of my all-time favorite actors. Seldom disappoints.

[FredLynn]

Rafaela Ks on a ball two feet outside the zone 

AGAIN

Give it a rest. He was 0-30 with runners in scoring position. Tell me in what planet that stat line works? Just you.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The Sox have redefined the term 'swingers.'

[Nick]

Luckily for Wong, I hate Yoshida more than him.

[FredLynn]

Abreu Ks on a ball in the dirt

Its like a broken record with these bums

Me too.  Did you watch The Fastest Indian In the World?  

Rafaela and Abreu both look incompetent in their second at bats.  Add Toro to the "les incompetents" list.

You must be suffering from Masa Derangement Syndrome.

[FredLynn]

Story and Bregman have made highlight reel defensive plays

No rest tonight.  I got momentum.  Huge hit by Wong in a big game in which a whole bunch of Sox "hitters" look like crap.

How dare you mention Rafaela and Abreu in the same post as the great Sir Anthony Hopkins. Blasphemy, sir.

They sure have.
