Nice call Abreu. Hit the ball

[iortiz]

This Mendoza team starting as expected. 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The Sox have their own Chewoftobaccy on the mound.

Went to Tops' super market this morning and discovered that both A&W Root Beer and 7-UP 2 liter bottles were on sale for a dollar, but you had to buy 4 bottles. I jumped all over that. A&W is the best root beer, IMHO.

Btw, none of the sodas I purchased were those sugar-free shite.

Won’t be surprised at all if Anthony goes to IL for this. This guy is incredible fragile.

Anthony needs to grow into himself. And people bitched that Mayer couldn't play a full season only because he had never done so, lol

[vegasbob]

Duran waking up. may clear .200 today

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Sox lead the league injuring themselves swinging the bat.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Same old Story.

[iortiz]

2nd and 3rd and nobody out yet failed to score. This team is so cooked.

You nailed it.

[vegasbob]

It's hard to even laugh at their inabilities. Truly pitiful.

 Contreras on a 2-0 pitch swings and misses. Yoshi , stale but subbing for fragile Anthony. roll over a classic Masa  bouncer, runner goibg is easy out. Story K's.

Beyond my comprehension

Mayer went on the IL last season after swinging the bat.

[Oscars]

In the last 12 innings, these bums are 0/17 with RISP.

It takes a special group to be that bad

As did Anthony for about 6 weeks

Runners on 2nd & 3rd with no outs and they don't score. Not that easy to do, but the Sox have made that into an art form.

Maybe they shouldn't swing the bat. I recommend more bunting.

Damages the fingers. ball often bounces off bat to hit face

I’m starting to think that we traded the wrong young guys to Chicago.

Good point. I got no other ideas.

[vegasbob]

BTW, Abreu sucks in May.

He's definitely holding this explosive line-up down.

Just work with the ABS system, take all pitches and walk or K. About the same as their hitting

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Because of incoming rain, who's ever leading after 5 may win this.

Sox are also not good with the ABS system.

[vegasbob]

Tolle pitching a great game as did Suarez until hammie-time.

Sox pitchers need to go to court to demand support

[FredLynn]

Just tuned in the FLOPS game. So surprised to see that they have zero runs and Duran striking out on a ball a few inches off the ground.

disgusting team

Sox offense will plead non-contacto.

[vegasbob]

Imagine a rain shortened game where neither team can score. Easy pickings Boston but gutlessbeffort
