No. They are just trying to spread a little happiness around to both hitters and fielders.
-
Agree. Yoshida is a good fit in LF. And slow on the bases. But also a very professional hitter.
-
RF turned out to be perfect for him, as we saw last year. Plus he can hit. A keeper.
-
Martin does the job!! For my money, send him back out for the 9th. (Dream on, dipstick.)
-
OK. That was grand larceny right there. Martin threw 5 straight cutters and got the K.
-
Yoshi ain't fast, but he knows what he's doing.
-
Winck got lucky for out #3. He got hit hard. Not sure I want to see him back out for the 8th.
-
Cora has done well with who he has sent to the mound today and for how long. Nice plays by Turner and Winck. I like Casas better for fielding throws in the dirt, but definitely prefer Turner on grounders and on throws to the pitcher covering first.
-
Terrific single by Duran!!! Righty vs lefty helped, but he hit that hard and brought home lucky run #7!.
-
Sure is.
-
Guess what, sports fans. We are not playing this game in the freaking Trop!!! Way to go, Sox!!!!!
-
But that's the way Duran is in some at bats. You know I'm right because we've both seen it.
-
Rays pitchers are not afraid to work the corners.
-
Interesting. Beeks throws 4 straight 4-seamers for balls to McGuire (also known as Wright) and now two straight changeups to Reyes for balls. Huge single by Reyes!!!!!!!
-
You picked the wrong time to sing this song. Duran was not going to hit Kelly, period. Also, the Rays do a much, much better job of working the edges of the strike zone than do the Sox pitchers. The home plate ump today has made a bunch of good calls on close ones.
-
Duran was dead meat the instant he stood in the batter's box. He had two pitches in the middle of the strike zone--one he let go by and the other he swung on and missed by a mile.
-
Looks like Pivetta will start the 2d game. Kluber looks like the same ace we've been rooting for all season long.
-
Meh. It wasn't that far off. Plus I doubt that it made a difference. Kelly had his number.
-
Duran looked completely helpless--and has looked that way too often lately. Yes, it was a sweeper he swung on and missed, but it was near the middle of the strike zone.
-
Casas is talking a blue streak to Duran. Not sure I like that.
-
So, in comes the righty to pitch to Ref, and out of the dugout comes Duran. It's only the 5th inning, but it's a 4-1 game, the Sox have 2 on base and a real opportunity.
-
Unbelievable how many sinkers La Sorsa throws.
-
I think the Rays do this more than anyone else. Start a righty against all those lefty bats, then go to a lefty in the 3d inning. Also this. The Sox finally score one run, and the Rays have a lengthy conference on the mound with 1 out, a man on first, and Devers coming to the plate. Devers gets his pitch, a sinker in the middle and hits a chopper to 3b for the ground out to get the lead runner.
-
Agree.
-
My guess is the Sox will consider Mayer for starting SS next year primarily for his defense and hope he can adapt to MLB pitching over time. He can definitely hit.
