  1. Meh. A slob started and gave up 5 runs. Sox never led.
  2. I believe Cora's intent for this game is not to use his best relievers and to save them for the Rays series. Besides, last night he used Ottavino, who gave up 3 runs to tie the game.
  3. Nope. He can't hit diddly. That was blind stupid luck.
  4. A small point, but a bunch of prospects are getting to play in MLB game today for a team that is in fact in the hunt for the postseason. Does this mean Cora is smart or lucky?
  5. Weird was the word I was looking for.
  6. Crawford is the biggest Sox stinker, and el magnifique just made the score 6-5. Madness.
  7. This game is way, way, way better than I expected. The proof--to me, anyway--is that in this game Schwarber stinks--twice left men on 2d and 3d-- and the Sox are still in it.
  8. Two nice plays for two outs.
  9. Bullpen of nobodies is doing pretty darn well.
  10. I figure it because both times the throws were well off the mark. What is gamecast?
  11. This is Schreiber's 4th freaking inning.
  12. Score would be 6-5 if the 3d base coach had not twice held Sox runners on 3b who would otherwise have scored.
  13. Renfroe, JDM, Verdugo, and Plawecki take advantage of 3d time facing Plesac, who remains in the game with 2 on and no outs in the 5th--and with 2 runs in.
  14. Great double by Renfroe because the Cleveland CF made a fantastic play on that ball.
  15. It's rare to see the Sox lineup so perfectly in sync as they are today. I mean you have to put a little effort into not driving anyone home when men are on 2d and 3d with 1 or 0 outs. Even Schwarber is in on it! A big K at the perfect moment. I would be dishonest not to point out that Plesac did a great job pitching to Schwarber and keeping his pitches low and mostly below the zone. No Sox pitchers are able to do that.
  16. Looks like the lineup is also taking a break today--they just forgot to tell the rookie Dalbec.
  17. Schreiber's gone 2 while giving up 1 run. Not bad. This game is like giving tryouts to AA or AAA pitchers who want to move up.
  18. I can't speak for the officials of the city of Boston or the commonwealth of Massachusetts. Vaccinations in that area are high and new cases of covid are low, so I can understand why someone who's young, healthy, and vaccinated would go, but I certainly would not. Looking at the map, I wouldn't go to anything indoors in Florida, SC, TEN, GA, AL, MS, LA TX, KY, WV, IN, or WY. Where I live, the stores are all asking people to wear masks.
  19. This is a Cora giveaway game. He did it in the first 2 games at Tampa, and it kind of worked. The Sox won games 3 and 4 with solid pitching and enough hitting. So too the next 2 games vs. the Guardians. Now with Pivetta, Barnes, Sawamura, Bogie, Kike, Arroyo, Santana, Taylor, D Hernandez, et al out for various reasons--and with 4 hard won victories in the past 4 games--this is the logical game not to extend the pitching staff.
  20. And I don't. Vaccinations are one key, but so are washing, masks, and physical separation.
  21. I definitely was being political because madstork insisted on making this issue political. Covid and especially vaccinations should not be political, but they have become so.
  22. I'd love to talk baseball, but this is a game thread about a game that is for all intents and purposes being forfeited. Sox are down 6-0 in the 3d.
  23. You still don't get it. The unvaccinated--and that's probably 100 million of us--are the problem and the reason why herd immunity is now unlikely.
