Cheer up. We're only 2 games out in the Wild Card race.

That's nothing to get excited about, check back with me after the next 6 games as the Sox will be lucky if they win any of them

[alsoason]

that was quick

[vegasbob]

Did not take long for Schwarber to stick the L-R thing to the Sox and Moran.  

Makes Mickey Gasper's task as our #2 a little tougher to beat

Just needs to do better than the last time he opened.

Well, maybe next time Jovani

[alsoason]

if the Sox don't answer here in the 1st, don't get your hopes up that later on they rally. I don't think this bunch knows what a rally is anymore

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Schwarber and Harper have a total of 27 HR's. The Sox team has a total of 29.

[alsoason]

six pitches, 3 outs...ouch

[alsoason]

Here comes the head arsonist head case

Even if they did know, knowing and doing are two quite different things.

[vegasbob]

What was the difference between Schwarb's and Mick's flyball to RF ?   About 100' and 1 run scored

But what's our OPS?!?!?!?!?!?

Remember, doubles and triples are included in the S... which in Boston also factors into LOB.

HRs -- as someone reminded the forum AND BREZ today -- immediately count on the scoreboard.

 

[alsoason]

same old same old with this bum

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Who the hell is Carl Crawford?

[iortiz]

We don't have a chance tonight in neither phase of the game.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Getting hit in the batter's box has been a strong part of the Sox offense.

[alsoason]

Trevor Story gives me a headache

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Story should have struck out.

so has Story hitting into double plays, he can't get hurt soon enough for me

[alsoason]

2 innings 6 outs 12 pitches on his way to a CG Shutout

Actually, he should have gotten a hit, but let's get real.

I just checked. He, like Story, was a FA with a long-term contract with the Sox that didn't go quite well.

Guy has to hurt this team in worst possible way.

But I thought his last name was Crawful.

at least they will not get no hit

[alsoason]

lol 3 innings 9 outs 16 darn pitches, way to make him work, 

[vegasbob]

16 pitches to get 9 outs from the weak Sox ?   That must be a new low, even for them.  But hit into 2 DPs in 3 innings and you can save a lot of pitches. 

Durbin may be the weakest looking batter I have seen strike a fair ball in awhile

[alsoason]

Durbin could help us by getting hurt himself, he needs a stint anywhere else then where he is.

[5GoldGlovesOF,75]

Durbin just hit into an inning-ending DP and OB said the side was retired.

So I give credit to all the former Red Sox players who just decided to hang 'em up.

 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The DP is a pitcher's best friend. The Sox line-up is also a pitcher's best friend.

The opposing pitcher I mean.
