White Sox (Martin) vs Red Sox (Sandoval): 8/4/26, 7:10pm

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Duran Duran. 

Hungry like the wolf.

[Tedballgame]

Glad they held onto Duran.

[FredLynn]

Fire Wong

How dare he make an out!

[iortiz]

These guys are just locked in. Geez!

BTW as I said on other post, Duran is going to hit and a lot moving forward. His BABIP is ridiculous.

He actually made two.

So thankful to see these dudes lighting the rockets red glare right out of the box.

Doubles does not describe how Durby any more. New nickname is Grannie Durban.

Duran cranks one towards the Ted's red seat in RF.

Is everyone clear you cannot spell Duran without the letters in Durban ?

[Tedballgame]

I cringe when I see outfielders dive like that. I've seen too many wrist injuries.

I fully expected Rafaela to catch that 

[Tedballgame]

Sandoval has a good change up tonight so far.

Your right, it is 6-0, situational awareness

Except it's actually Durbin.

I was so glad to see the replay--I was sure he had turned his wrist there.  But I don't think he should let up.   Play 100% all the time.    We've all seen sports injuries that occur precisely because someone lets up (and thus starts moving in ways that are less practiced maybe?)

Why sogard at 2b as opposed to Siegler?

Sogie needs a triple and a HR now

He doesn’t know any other way to play 

[FredLynn]

Out

[Tedballgame]

Not good baserunning by Abreu

DFA Abreu

[Tedballgame]

Can't afford to take their foot off of the gas.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Great play by Durbin is becoming redundant.

[FredLynn]

Sandoval needs to throw strikes 

[Tedballgame]

Need a strike out or a DP

He is nibbling with a six run lead. Not good.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

If a poll was taken amongst the Red Sox pitchers, I'd guess they'd vote for Cheng as the SS.

[Tedballgame]

Good job by Sandoval to get out of it while White Sox use all their challenges. :)

[moonslav59]

Dubin-Da-Man.

Amazing that he's up to .720, now. The guy was at ,530 to end May!

He was still at .542 on June 9th and .557 on June 16th.

Not counting tonight, he hit .924 in his last 40 games.

Counting tonight, he has 8 HRs in 41 games- a 32 HR/162 pace!

He is playing gold glove defense and has all season.

Duran is a beast. Can't believe you guys all wanted to dump him. 😅
