Hopefully one of those two can replace Perez after the all-star break. And also hopefully, Romo won’t be up either.

Schriffen back to trying to gaslight us that the Sox lack of offense is not due to terrible batting/ at bats, but that the Boston pitchers are just so outstanding.

Romo cannot be on this roster after the all-star break.

I can accept that the 1st two Boston starters of this series threw good games. But if we can’t light up this stiff, it ain’t the pitching.

New York wants to see something else.

I do not, do not see how he wasn’t out. You can CLEARLY see the front of Kay’s foot twist/ pronate as he steps on the bag in time. You can absolutely see it. Getz had to look in to it. Something is going on with the Sox and video reviews.

I hope Grichuk proves me wrong today, and Martin after the all-Star game.

Anybody else worried, or starting to worry, that Grichuk and Davis Martin are turning into pumpkins?

Let me see . . . . What meme can I use to lose all credibility as a poster on this forum??? And somewhat as a person?? Ding, ding, ding!

As a rookie.

I think (and I believe Davis Martin has this problem), Murphy lost his concentration after those defensive lapses. He couldn’t collect himself and get back on track.

I have to be rather snarky here and say, So What?! Mune is out and the White Sox traded away Crochet. Our team on the field has beaten their team in the field 4 out of 7 games. Won the last two in Cleveland, and is in 1st place.

We are way overdue to light up a right hander. Would love to see it today.?

You beat me to this topic, as I’ve seen it mentioned on here a few times. So is the story true that Anderson was announced an all-star to the entire locker room, and no one reacted or applauded? If true, just wow. You had to know your clubhouse was a cancer seeing that. No wonder that group underachieved so badly.

Other than winning 3rd game to win the Cubs series, this is the biggest win of the year. Just huge.

I agree with this. I don’t get it. Anyone remember how Tim Anderson used to get picked off 2nd base WAY too often. One time it happened to him in back-to-back games. I was so angry.

Just stay on the base and let the bats drive you in. I am sooo tired of these outs that take the bats out of our hands.

I am really ready to start conspiracy theories about the overturns coming from NYC. Over and over the call gets overturned against the Sox and there is never any thing close to definitive evidence to overturn it. Just like again tonight.

So, if Martin pitches a clunker tonight, does it cost him an all-star appearance? What do you think? Maybe? Probably?

They’re making all the D plays so far.

Orioles making all the tough defensive plays, so far. But now Acuna will just steal 2nd.

Well s%*#! Horrible, horrible luck we didn’t get another run there.

Either way, Braden is really becoming an offensive threat. No question about it.

Even sitting at home watching the game on TV in comfort, is there anyone else, who watching a game in extreme temperatures; it takes away, a little bit, from your enjoyment of the game? It’s hard for me not to feel bad for the players and fans dealing with that extreme, even dangerous, heat. It’s always in the back of my mind as I watch and detracts from my enjoyment. It’s the same if it’s super cold in March and early April. The players obviously look so cold. The sting from the bat on certain contact, or seeing the fans in blankets and hats obviously freezing. Either way, my empathy kicks in and I have a little less fun watching.

A few things: I really want the Sox to sweep KC. We owe so badly after they have embarrassed the Sox so badly the last two years. I think Sandlin will do fine tonight, especially if Witt is out tonight. Has Vasil put on weight, significant weight? Look at his face in that picture and when you see him in the dugout, he looks heavy. I don’t remember at all thinking he was “larger” like that when he was pitching last year.
