The phenomenon that was Mickey Gasper has officially disappeared

Another roll over swing by Anthony.  7 for his last 50.  Putrid 

Hey, at least it got a run in.  Again, if you hit the ball something good can happen.  Nothing can happen if you don’t put it in play.

[FredLynn]

Well you all enjoy the rest of this loss. 
These bums are unwatchable 

Outta here

He’s our lead off hitter hitting .140.  And he strikes out a lot.  He is a 7-8 hitter at best if at all right now

No. Dancing With The Stars is unwatchable.

Imagine Gray, gives up a solo in the 1st, walks 2 in the second who score and he's beat.

Allows only 2 hits after 1st, pitches 7 full

First off there's no dancing and second off there's no stars.

The dangerous 8th is coming up.

[Bagwell Anderson]

The reality is this team will most likely make the playoffs but they simply don’t have the fire power to compete against a Yankee or Ray  team.  It would be nice to see them in the post season but the outcome is inevitable 

[vegasbob]

Feeling it for Gray. A 13 pitch AB for a walk. Nothing going right for Sonny

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Tuff luck for Sonny. He pitched well enough to get a win.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

No matter what happens the rest of the season, Sonny had his best season this year with the Sox. He's definitely my pick for Sox MVP.

Gray pitches his butt off and deserved better. We get swept in Tampa and we don’t deserve to play in October 

No, the game is off here. Could have turned it off after the first inning

Agreed

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Hopefully Contrares doesn't have to go on the IL.

[vegasbob]

No sympathy for Wilson on HBP, he leans into pitches

If that costs Contreras for playoffs , then its all on him

Crowding the plate like Contrares does is always a hand injury risk.

[vegasbob]

Could we trade AR for Danny J, asking for a friend?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I love how the commercials run right into the action on the field.

 

[vegasbob]

Story gets the 2-0 hitters count proceeds to HR for the lead. 

Get Whitlock up

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Useless Story with a timely HR.

[NHNative]

That is what I am talking about.

[vegasbob]

First since May 13. Story may have saved a game here

A lot of Sox batters get the hitters' count and do Jack Shite.

[Bagwell Anderson]

Not sure what the splits are for Story righty bs lefty but as much as he chases sliders away off speed in is his exact opposite 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Well, at least one of our season long wounded has returned and contributed.

[vegasbob]

Bringing Olds back out for 8th ?

[Bagwell Anderson]

Where is Whitlock?

Right handed hitter. Now it’s Gamboa.

Also probably means one of Whitlock or Chapman isn’t available.
