At this point I have as much faith in Sandoval as I did a few years ago in Paxton.

Let's just say I hope Sandoval isn't Paxton, the sequel.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That's a very disinterested swing.

This rag arm may be the worst starter the Sox have faced all season.

Yet he is shutting us out

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

And Mono just continues to make good contact.

[FredLynn]

Suicide squeeze 

[vegasbob]

Dangerous situation bases loaded 1 out

[Tedballgame]

let it hit you Wong

[Tedballgame]

Nice AB by Wong. Useless.

[FredLynn]

GIDP

Bum

And that is exactly why it was dangerous with Wong. Not just a DP, a gold plated one

Should have sent Durbin. Make the A's make a play. Especially with Wong coming up.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Three hits and no runs. Let us return to those thrilling days of April and May. The Lone Ranger Suarez rides again.

[vegasbob]

How does this series not remind us of the April 'May to June 24 lack of offense ?

Wong did hit a homer last night, so he's way ahead of Romy.

Maybe I can shame Romy into getting a hit. It's worked on other role players.

[Tedballgame]

Jones has been a good pick up.

 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Let's keep up with the Joneses.

[Tedballgame]

Too bad Jones wasn't hitting in Wong's spot.

Hats off to Brez.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Since the Streak ended, Mono has easily been the Sox best hitter.

Correction 

Yankmees tied

they were up 4-0 with Schlittler pitching 

I assumed they won

Chose him over Schwarber…

[vegasbob]

Jones amazingly gets them on the board tying the game up.

Sandoval wastes no time giving it up.

Sandman getting hit in the 5th. He needs the DP now

Jones did say he would play in any time zone.

And Alonso and didn't trade to get Bogaerts and his contract back in Boston

Hope it goes 22 innings and burns the NYY pitching

[vegasbob]

The HP Umpire better be on the retirement list this year, like CB Bucknor is

He was a dead duck if he tried.

Suicide squeeze was the right play
