They are auditioning for the Chippendales in the off season.

He is swinging away at most everything outside the zone, and not cutting back the swing with 2 strikes. Not the man we wanted up with RISP in extras. Good that Peters was patient, and took the walk to win the game.

Sam needs to be an everyday player, including against lefties. By the way, is Pereira better than Junior Pérez?

Sox continue to have problems with lefty pitchers, which take Ant and Benintendi out, two of our better hitters.

Unfortunately you were right. Sitting out Sam again is not a good idea.

But not as Huùuuge as Trump’s, according to Trump.

Quero sucking helped the walk off hit that came out of the end of the bat. If he had hit it better it would have been right at the CF. IMO.

Is this a serious comment or sarcasm? Taking Sam out for Grichuk was brutal. IMO.

Biggest win of the year. Venable got bailed out by Quero of all people. Taking Sam out of the game was brutal, and we won ugly regardless.

Venable is a moron. Does not adjust to the circumstances. He is a manager for a 100 lossteam Putting the game in the hands of Quero, Grichuk, and Acuna at the clean up spot is tough. None of these guys could get the ball up in the air or go the other way. Hope we can still pull it out. This is the most important game of the year to win.

But Grichuk is not an elite pinch hitter.

Sox signed Eric Haase to a minor league contract today. Bring him in, can’t be worse than what we have now.

Sox catchers have the lowest slashing line in MLB .163/.241/.265 as well as bad defense. It is imperative to get a catcher. The Sox signed today Eric Haase to a minor league contract, he can’t be worse that what we have now….

Buster Olney of ESPN, ranks the Sox as the #2 MLB team behind the Cubs, that needs a trade deadline move the most. Nor surprisingly, he refers to a need for a catcher and one starting pitcher. As possible catchers to target, he refers to Kyle Stephenson and Jose Trevino of the Reds or Francisco Alvarez and Luis Torres of the Mets. He refers that Noah Schultz needs an upgrade as fifth starter. Hopefully Getz can pull the trigger on a good catcher. Sox cannot contend well with Quero/Romo duo. IMO.

Junior Pérez last swing was a homer, and then he gets immediately sent down. I would have giving another opportunity. Pereira did not perform well tonight.

Another unforced error. Colson also has a bad leg.

Venableis big on lefty lefty pitching matchups as he is big in avoiding lefty lefty hitting match ups. Venable is not a good in game leveraged situation manager, including managing the bullpen.

Anything out of the zone, and if we walk him so be it.

He is the most dangerous hitter in the Yankees lineup. That Hudson fastball had too much of the plate.

Quero is the worst ABS challenger in MLB, not only with bad calls but also no IQ, challenging in the 7 th with our last challenge on a 0-0 count and no outs. You figure that.

Great. But the Sox broadcast has to stop the in game interviews in the middle of our tying rally.

Two lead walks both scored to begin with.
