Very glad the shift was on. Somebody learnt the lesson of many hits against the Sox on ground balls down the middle in the last few games.

So glad to see ReyLo coming in and not screwing around by TLR to “save bullpen”, and bringing in Banks, Foster, Ruiz instead , with a 4 run lead.

Homers and good pitching is our success formula, besides keeping TLR away from f*cking up the games.

It was 97 mph. That helped.

TA is a much better hitter with no one on base than with RISP.

Love to see more Grandal bat drops. We need the power.

Sox have the worst manager, coaches and FO in MLB.

Kopech is hanging in there. Prefer him to Foster in the 4 th.

Polanco is a lefty homerun hitter.

Leury should not be a starter in any more games. He is a utility player to come off the bench as needed. If he does start he needs to hit 9th behind Big Energy. Never hit 7th, when there is a better chance of having RISP. TLR just keeps doubling down on Leury.

Twice Leury comes up to the plate with RISP and twice he failed. Why isn’t Big Energy hitting ahead of Leury? He has been hotter. Sox find it hard to win games with Leuryin the lineup.

We are going to need to hit some homers to win this game.

No sh*t

Sox back to its old tricks after a promising start to the game. - Robert misplaying ball in CF. - Anderson bad throw to first opening the flood gates to two runs. - Anderson swinging at balls and pulling the ball on the ground with RISP. Not even looking at going the other way. - Moncada taking a 3rd strike with a man at third. - Robert out with lightheadedness? It is hard to catch the Twins with so many handicaps.

Eloy and Robert are our fragile porcelain dolls.

Unbelievable and with a man on third.!

Hope he got the memo to not let Buxton beat us.

That’s TLR ball. Defense comes second.

Maybe he is related to Big Papi.

If we get good starting pitching and hit some homers will be OK. We know for sure now that we are not going to get swept by the Twins. One game at a time now.

I love these big leads. They make the games TLR proof.

Jose didn’t want to be the new Yermin Mercedes and getting thrown under the bus by TLR. Only time in the game that TLR got excited when he wanted to apply the unwritten rule.

Robert lazy approach to that ball. Needs to go all out.

He is a savvy pitcher, not a thrower.

No surprise. The Soxas a team do not work counts or take walks.
