8/17 Just Have Fun

[mauidano]

And the old putting the lead off runner on base comes back to roost.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Another 6-run inning would be tight!

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Could (and should) see three PH in a row here.

 

[TFisNEXT]

Gonna lose by 3 after allowing 4 runs to score by complete noodle bats (Downs and Call)

 

[E5 Yaz]

Tying run on deck

 

[Harry Hooper]

Nice stroke by Verdugo for a hit.

 

[shawnrbu]

Scalded.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Sweet Lou Merloni is a pretty good baseball color man.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Tying run at the plate

 

[Harry Hooper]

O'B oblivious to Duran pinch-hitting.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

That 10th run really hurts right now

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

So give up a run here and lose 10-9?

Uh oh.

 

[Merkle's Boner]

Could (and should) see three PH in a row here.

Ask and he shall receive

 

[LogansDad]

Wish we hadn't hit Abrams to start the 8th inning. Fuck.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

That 10th run really hurts right now

Like a sumbitch.

 

[mauidano]

So give up a run here and lose 10-9?

Quite possibly.

 

[JOBU]

That run looking kind of big now

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Turner not available. That injury has been pretty deadly to the team.

 

[mauidano]

GJGE McGuire.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Gonna be up to Story, I think.

 

[mauidano]

Turner not available. That injury has been pretty deadly to the team.

Should have IL'd him and got someone who can play. Stupid.

 

[shawnrbu]

McGuire over Turner?

 

[LogansDad]

Useless. At least he didn't run towards 3rd base.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Can't believe they are pitching to Rafi with first open.

 

[TFisNEXT]

Can't believe they are pitching to Rafi with first open.

Yeah tough call but I think I’d walk him.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Can't believe they are pitching to Rafi with first open.

I can

 

[Ted Cox 4 president]

sigh

 

[mauidano]

Story time.

 

[Rovin Romine]

Pay that Man!

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

I mean, shorten up your swing, maybe?

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Devastating loss.

 

[mauidano]

Fuckity Fuck.

 

[shawnrbu]

He didn’t know the catcher was in the other box?

 

[Harry Hooper]

That de-escalated quickly.

 

[S. H. Frog]

Figures the cocaine pony would end it

 

[Stu Nahan]

Pathetic

 

[shawnrbu]

1st pitch swinging.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Well, your worst fear, Sox losing by one run, did not happen. So be happy!

 

[Obscure Name]

No shame in losing to the best.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

1st pitch swinging.

McGuire and Story.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Oof

 

[LogansDad]

Season is on life support now. Just an absolutely atrocious 16 days of baseball.

 

[shawnrbu]

When you pinch hit for your leadoff hitter, you have a poorly constructed lineup.

 

[TFisNEXT]

Losing a Sale vs Corbin start is not a good recipe for getting back into the WC race.

 

[mauidano]

 

[Beomoose]

I'm not anti-Cora, but putting Carjacker in there seems....not great.

 

[InsideTheParker]

McGuire and Story.

I this a Cora thing or is it a modern baseball thing? Remember when patience was a virtue, especially against a pitcher they probably haven't seen before?

 

[patinorange]

I can

He's been an easy out lately. Excepting that meatball from one of the dregs.
Story had a shitty visit to D.C.
I'll give them some credit for the comeback, but this was a devastating loss.

 

[LogansDad]

When you pinch hit for your leadoff hitter, you have a poorly constructed lineup.

Cora's lineups are less set than hair gel.

 

[barclay]

When was the last time the Sox and Yanks finished at the bottom two rungs of the standings? Hint: Yanks only played 159 games that season.
