  1. Absolutely stunning rally in the bottom of the 9th. Verdugo, in a slump, gets his 3d single. Dalbec, the worst hitting first baseman in the history of baseball (not just MLB) gets his 2d single. And superstud Hernandez brings them home to tie the game. No one but no one on this thread had any faith this would happen. Except for one guy, moonslav, who is carrying this team and talksox.
  2. Never. Even when I think he's wrong, he's right. Pinch-running for Dalbec was not called for, especially in view of what happened in the game. The big mistake was sending Ottavino out for the 8th--except that the 8th has been his inning all season long.
  3. They certainly are not "mailing it in." However, it sure looks that way. Ottavino, especially, but also Vazquez and his passed ball, the top of the order, the bumble by Verdugo, the third base coach signaling Dalbec to try to score from 2b on a grounder fielded cleanly by the Yankees SS.
  4. It means he doesn't like the Sox players in the game tonight.
  5. I'm not Dalbec fan, but what you and others fail to understand is that he--and for that matter, Chavis--are the guys playing in the game. Tonight he has made no errors and did get a clean single that contributed to the rally that tied the game even though the run so far is unearned. One more time. Dalbec is absolutely not the reason why the Sox are losing.
  6. Ottavino pitching his third straight game.
  7. Another bonehead play by Vazquez on the throw although the SB was on Ottavino.
  8. What baloney. He has one more hit in this game than Hernandez, Renfroe, and Vazquez combined. And he went home because the 3b coach pointed home and didn't signal him to stop until he was halfway home. That play was on the coach, not the player.
  9. WEEI guys confirm that play--going for home--was on the third base coach who pointed home.
  10. It was in fact a weak sac fly. Verdugo made an amazing slide.
  11. WEEI guys are blaming Dalbec, but the replay suggests the 3b coach didn't make much of an effort to hold him at 3b. 1-1 game with both runs unearned. Rays beat Guardians in 10 coming from behind.
  12. Correction. Chavis's hit was an error.
  13. Bottom of the Sox order now has 5 of 7 hits.
  14. 4 of the 6 Sox hits have come from the bottom of the Sox order. 2 have come from the top 6 batters.
  15. 2 hits for Verdugo and valid hits at that.
  16. Boone is a happy camper because almost anyone he brings in is going to get our guys out.
  17. I could be wrong, but I think the Sox hitters can thrown at--by that I mean at the head--more often than hitters our pitchers are facing. It used to be called a brush back pitch and was used to set up pitches away from the batter.
  18. That was a rarity by a Sox pitcher. Three pitches in the upper inside corner plus a waste pitch outside--resulting in a K by Hernandez. Great command.
  19. Way to go, Renfroe. Swing at a ball well above the strike zone for a lazy fly to RF. It was, to be perfectly honest, a terrific pitch, guaranteed to make a stupid hitter look bad. Whoever said the Sox, at least tonight, are too aggressive, was absolutely right.
  20. Nice single by JDM!!!! Just what was needed. Up to Renfroe.
  21. He hit it even harder an hour ago, but right to the SS.
  22. Finally, in the 6th inning with two outs, the first hit from the first six batters in the Sox lineup tonight. A clean single by Bogaerts. Montgomery, despite the inane and insane comments on this game thread, dominated the Sox. Period.
  23. 3d time thru the order, which Montgomery so far has dominated.
  24. Sox have 2 singles in 5 innings and are losing 1-0 on an unearned run thanks to Vazquez.
