Red Sox (Early) vs Braves (Strider): 5/15/26, 7:15pm

[FredLynn]

This is a historically bad and disgusting team. And it was predictable over the winter. BresLOWS solution? 
 

Fire the manager.

I firmly believe the Sox can score a bunch of runs tonight because just before posting this, I reminded myself of the heartwarming tale involving a blind squirrel.

Breaking news:

The famous blind squirrel sadly was found dead earlier today after being hit by a  legally blind driver.

Viewings will be scheduled for tomorrow morning at the site of the accident.

And no, he was not carrying a nut.

Gasper continues to carry the  ?offense?.

Gasper , the AAA journeyman, getting it done and looks good at the plate 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Early 2 runs in 5 innings against a good offensive team.

Sorry Early, but you'll have to do much better than that if you want to remain in the Big Show.

Pitching for this anemic offense of a team is like walking through a minefield wearing skis.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Maybe there's more than one blind squirrel.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Someone get that pitcher's name.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I predicted the game would be over at 2-0. That is still in play.

The Sox are home wreckers, but are road warriors.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Don't let Yaz beat us 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Two evenly matched teams.

 

 

EXCEPT FOR THE OFFENSE.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Nice work by Moran.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

There's really no one in this Sox lineup that you anticipate doing anything dramatic.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Mono Stereo. Just get a hit.

Couldn't find his sweet spot.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

As bad as the Sox record is, imagine how much worse it would be w/o Chappy.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Atem ball by Gasper. Keep him in this shite line-up. He's earned it.

[Tedballgame]

Hitless wonders lose another well pitched game

Too late

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Getting beat by Yaz's grandson seems appropriate.

[Tedballgame]

A team that can't hit should definitely be bunting in the 10th whether they are at home or away. Try to get a run and put pressure on the other team to have to score. Dumb.

When is it Braiden Ward Time?

[Oscars]

The Sox have now lost 4 of their last 5, and a sweep is on the cards in Atlanta.

Once again we pitch good enough to win, but  the hitting continues to suck . 
Since Tracy has arrived,  they have pitched well on the whole, and the defence has been great , but the hitting is as poor as it was before his arrival.
This is not a surprise, as this line up was predictably weak before the season started, and has been made even worse by the massive back sliding by Story, Duran and Anthony.

At the end of this road trip, the Red Sox could be 11-12 games under .500 

[FredLynn]

I could call these games before the first pitch is thrown. What a disgusting bunch of loser BUMS. What a revolting franchise.

They need to lose the rest of their games

Too bad Rafaela doesn't rob that HR.

True, because once the Sox are behind by 2 runs it's pretty much over.

[moonslav59]

The Braves are a good team, but this is just plain awful.

[Old Red]

The Red Sox have now scored 3 runs, or less in 27 of 44 games.🤮
