  1. The guy I'm thinking of is Daniel Nava. He stayed on 2d when the next Sox batter bounced one off the RF wall. And don't forget knuckleballer Wright who pinch-ran, slid back to 2b (I think on a throw) and injured himself badly enough to go on the 60 day IL.
  2. I can wait. The guy went on the 60 day IL just from swinging a freaking bat. I think he's due for TammyJohn surgery.
  3. Great game, great run by the Sox, but up ahead looms armageddon. The Sox have to go back to dreaded Fenway Park, where dreams are demolished.
  4. I've been thinking exactly the same thing. The players are OK. The pitching is not bad. But SPLENDIDSPLINTER is on a roll.
  5. Meh. The worst I ever saw by a Sox baserunner was the guy on 2d base who stayed on 2d base when the Sox hitter hit one of the wall in RF. Absolutely true. First he took a lead, but then he decided the ball was caught or about to be, so he slid back into 2b like he was returning to the womb.
  6. Great, great line, moon. What I love is the 2d straight game of coming from behind--to say nothing of 5 runs or more in 4 straight games. If this hitting keeps up, the worthless, no good, underpaid, low down yankee (northerners) Sox just might be climbing back into the AL East race.
  7. Cora knows. Boy, does Cora know. 5-3 Sox in the 5th and the Rays are on their 3d pitcher.
  8. 4-3 Sox on a nice opposite field single by Ref.
  9. I've always wondered why the Rays don't let the outfielders come in for those mound conferences.
  10. Abreu gets lucky. Now let's see if Wong can capitalize. He does!! Sweet single and 2 more runs in. Grissom, our fearless one, scored all the way from 3d base.
  11. Lefty Lovelady up against Duran and Abreu.
  12. Back to back BB's by a Rays pitcher. Catastrophe. Grissom is the worst baserunner in the entire history of the sport. And he might have been helped by the Sox 1b coach.
  13. Did I just use reverse mojo on Pepiot? Hamilton got the BB, and now there's a mob scene at the mound. When Bello walks a guy, everyone shrugs and says, "normale."
  14. Pepiot is outpitching Bello because his command is way, way, way better.
  15. Maybe tonight Cora doesn't know best. Ref has the only Sox hit in 4 innings.
  16. Completely agree. The jewelry is thoroughly unprofessional. And you can bet the players union is insisting it is a basic human right.
  17. Bello stinks—simple as that. He is not a serious pitcher.
  18. Bello walks Arozarena after getting an 0-2 count.
  19. Strongly agree this game is mostly about Bello. Last night Criswell was hit hard in the first inning and gave up 2 runs--but no runs in the next 4.1 innings. Impressive. Texas leadoff batter who turns out to be an artist at getting his popups to land safely, has just scored the Rangers first run. And here's Jamie!
  20. mlb tv just showed Harper and Stott, Phillies 1b and 2b, stare at a very high pop up that landed between them with neither one making any effort to catch it. Reportedly, the both speak English, but maybe not. In Harper's defense, the ball landed about 3' from Stott.
  21. Not my preferred lineup, but Cora knows best.
  22. Giolito and Whitlock are headed for the ash heap of Red Sox history. Whitlock, already a TJ surgery recipient, appears headed back for more. Giolito's procedure is like TJ, but less invasive and therefore more quickly recovered from. My guess is he will return next year long enough to need the real thing and be gone another year or two.
  23. One more time. Like everyone else, I regret the loss of Sale and especially paying his salary while he has a great season for the Braves. But at the same time the Sox have one of their best rotations ever without Sale. And their weakness this year is in the lineup, especially the infield which can't hit and is error-prone. I don't like Grissom so far, but acquiring him makes sense with regard to team needs.
  24. You could be right, but it's also true that they delivered.
  25. You must have some kind of deep prejudice against Valdez because the rest of us see that foot, the one that can kick a ball the warning track, as absolutely invaluable when it comes time for penalty kicks.
