UNBELIEVABLE. What just happened? The 17 million dollar man did something.

Ugh, Don Luis. Gotta lay off those low and away. That first pitch looked tasty but just fouled it off.

They won't lay down, but they might stink up the joint. Already well on their way.

Love the puns and the Cookie Rojas reference.

f*** Booser. An uncharacteristically decent offensive performance ruined by one man.

Don Luis ran a long way for that ball. I hate you Booser.

This bullpen. Booser - back to the carpentry shop with ye!

He's been an above avg fielder but mediocre hitting. 775 hits, 1106 K's

That was a Greg Maddux strike. Not even a Mariano Rivera.

That was outside! BS.

Benintendi 3B. Too bad he didn't do that with men on base. Tough out for Meidroth, btw.

Vargas can't field 3rd. He should only be at first or DH.

A productive out better than a K. Wish he could get going.

Take away an A.

Should have gotten at least one more. “Run it out, you piece of –! Go on, run it out!” Tauchman fail. At least it's not a shutout.

LUCK! Wait, Why didn't Teel score?

Luis knows how to bunt. Not sure Teel does. Come on, just a single please.

Service medal for Burke covering first and Noda fielding for the out. Fundamental baseball executed. Take the joy where you can.

I thought he was an avg. fielder and below avg. hitter. It's actually reversed. Sometimes he comes thru with the bat, but it seems like ages since he has. 17 mil/yr. UGH.

For comparison to Burke: Fedde 1st: 21 pitches: 5 pitch K looking (Tauchman); single (Meidroth); pop out 3B (Benintendi); SB (Meidroth); BB (Vargas); weak ground out (Teel). They tried but no timely hitting. C'MON SOX!

Burke top of the first: 21 pitches: 7 pitch walk, single, 4 pitch walk, sac fly, 3 pitch K, fly out at the wall. His luck won't last.

Well, not tonight. He was 1-2 with an RBI (uncharacteristically). He gave up a 2-run homer, not that it mattered. Except maybe with the PTSD.

I can't image what the players must feel like. Capra throwing BP looks totally demoralized. Are those supposed to be knuckleballs?

what is this?

Ridiculous. F-ing cricket swing drives in a run. I've gotta put on some Napalm Death to vent.
