Red Sox had a man on third with one out in the 8 th and could not score White Sox style. Need three more outs. Chapman is in. Keep fingers crossed. Ask the Pope for a prayer.

But better than Quero, Rogers and Romo.

Second awful decision by Chase back to back, and in this case with no outs in a tied game.

Red Sox 11 hits and only one run thru 7. Would have felt better with a bigger cushion. It helps that they are the home team though.

Yes,the Mr. Hyde version, not Jekyll.

The Chase swing over his head on a 3-1 count popping out to the catcher, and the bases loaded really hurt.

Would have preferred an upper cut swing resulting in a ball in the air. But it is what it is..

He swung at ball four with the bases loaded, cost us a sure run to take the lead.

You were right. Zilch. Red Sox 8 LOB, 8 hits, 1-9 RISP, no runs thru 5. Pitiful.

A ball over his head. Cost us at least one run and the lead. Swinging for the fences instead of patient small ball.

Agree. Colson challenge was stupid, he would’ve struck out regardless. He will be the all time strike out MLB king.

Hope so. But it looks to me that we will need help from the Red Sox tonight.

Analytics/splits orthodoxy is killing Venable and the Sox. Venable is a stubborn inflexible pill.

This opener BS in a critical game was too cute. Let Fedde open up the game. Overmanaging again.

Red Sox Seven LOB first 3 innings. 2 double plays and several strike outs. Not playing small ball, a bunt to move runners up or a hit and run ,would have been a good idea.

Still, it was too close for comfort after giving up the grand slam, and Will left him in , and he also gave up two deep fly balls to end the game. He was throwing meatballs out there.

No. He is not closing for the Mariners. Set up guy. 4 holds. 16 Ks in 21 innings. Record 1-0. 3.32 ERA.

Getz sure got fleeced in that trade. Eating up that salary was also inexcusable.

NO doubt about that. Seranthony ERA with Mariners is 3.32.

4 runs per inning pitching or 36 runs in a complete game.

Walking people with a 7 run lead is inexcusable followed by a grand slam even more so. Do we have anyone warming in the bullpen?

Romo and Rogers are also in the running. Doyle has been removed from the list.

I am just glad we had a 10 run lead. That is a very good thing to have with our bullpen bad quality.

Their die hard fans are not going to be happy at the Red Sox. Those fans don’t like their beloved Sox lose.

It’s OVAH in Boston. Guardians win 3-2.
