They were laughing at Collins in the A’s dugout. Embarrassing.

Spider Tack had some serious drop in sales.

4 double plays hit by the A’s. Glad to see other teams going through that pain, often suffered by the Sox.

Doesn’t look that way without Bassit.

Home plate umps have been terrible lately. They are at risk to losing their jobs to robots.

Yes, you always worry about a Conigliaro type injury.

And unexpected with Bassitt vs ReyLo and no Robert in the lineup! Life is good.

Sox unleashed their new atomic weapon tonight, the three run homer, and two of them.. It is devastating and usually leads to a win, particularly with good Sox pitching.

An Earl Weaver style 3 run homer goes a long way towards a nice game!

Hope you are wrong, but it’s not over until it’s over.

Hope it did it affect his eye.

Maybe he should get some from Yermin.

He got out of the black hole tonight.

Like tonight when we have 2 black holes with Lamb and Collins and one one gray hole with Goodwin.

The overall outfield defense without Robert is scarily bad.

What is the record with Collins?

Everyone in our current lineup can hit a home run at any time. This is very positive, particularly at home at homer friendly GRF. The additions of Hernández, Eloy and Robert have made a difference in this area. This makes it easier for us to build bigger leads and/or come back from deficits. The 3 run homer weapon is back in our arsenal. On the other hand, we need to be careful to not be swinging for the fences at every opportunity.

No doubt. With very good results. Let’s keep it this way. Cut down on the double plays.

Sox version of Nasty Boys clicking tonight. Was a great game for the Sox. Finally started putting runners in motion. Nasty bullpen. Timely hits. One of the best played Sox games of the season.

No way. Robert was going to score anyway.

Right on. He was lucky that that double stayed in the park. Low fastballs in the zone to good lefties normally go a long way.

I think Moncada being a switch hitter keeps him up in the lineup.

La Pantera must be promoted to hit 5 th, ahead of Moncada, Vaughn, Goodwin. Abreu, Eloy and Robert is pretty intimidating. May not Happen as TLR may want to have a switch hitter like Moncada in there.

I am glad that we are finally playing some small ball with more running, instead of the station to station, frequent double play version.

Glad we are finally running some more. Goodwin didn’t try to hit, so I guess it was a straight steal.
