Tim is asking to be benched for lolly gagging back to 3rd there.

Ricky actually let Fry pitch a full inning?! I'm shocked.

Good news. Mendick is pinch hitting. Bad news. It's for Collins.

Palka did something!

If Gio had 4 more walks and like 4 more K's, I would consider this a Ricky Vaughn outing.

That's a shame. Giolito pitched well. Box score won't say it though.

I'd buy that if he only squared around once. The fact that he squared around 3 times in that bat (and fouled off a pitch bunting) tells me you are wrong in that assessment. Moncada never bunted in the minors FYI.

Thank goodness Abreu elevated that.

Would be smart to avoid the double play here... too smart for Ricky to consider.

Tim has had 3 terrible at bats today.

Moncada also said fuck off Ricky.

Your best hitter at that.

Fuck off Ricky. Seriously fuck right off.

8 K's in a row is a Sox record... very surprising considering Sale was here.

Jesus Gio!

Damn I thought Collins got that one.

Yikes. Add in the terribad defense and you can see how he's not even a 2 WAR player.

Giolito going for 10+ K's today.

Another terrible base running play by Abreu. Shocker.

This is the most aggressive he's been all year on the base paths. It's great to see. Should've been this way his last 2 years here.

Terrible AB by Anderson. Cost Moncada a SB then proceeds to K on 3 pitches.

This.

It's not hard Ricky. You saw what Anderson and Moncada did as a 1-2 under McEwing. You had the same 2 guys right but Moncada leading off which he has publicly said he doesn't like doing... is bad.

I'd rather see Mendick get a pinch hit AB than Goins. Unfortunately he isn't a lefty for Ricky's sake.

He was saying "get it right." If you are calling that on one side, call it for the other. That pitch was actually closer to being a strike than his AB.
