QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 3, 2016 -> 02:08 PM) Great win, 4 straight series wins too! Wooooo !

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 3, 2016 -> 02:06 PM) @chuckgarfien MLB's leading hitter Jose Altuve went 0-3 against Jose Quintana. For his career, he's now 3-23 vs. Quintana with 7 strikeouts and 0 walks. Altuve hit .420 in June that is unreal.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 3, 2016 -> 02:04 PM) Yes ! There's at least a 30 second difference probably more.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 3, 2016 -> 02:01 PM) Got the lead runner. Thanks for making that easy Lawrie and not hot dogging it Thanks for the info before I see it nice to know we got an out .

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jul 3, 2016 -> 02:00 PM) Good job by Eaton playing that carom. Ha damn you guys are seeing it before it's broadcast here . I was wtf what carom ?

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 3, 2016 -> 01:33 PM) A win today would be 4 straight series wins. We're back! Not only that but Astros had won 5 straight series coming in so we stop a hot team too on the road.

So great to see. Q supports the hitters then the hitters support him !

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jul 3, 2016 -> 01:14 PM) Even so, winning is better than stupid retaliatory tactics. You have to stick up for your team mates, you really do or you become punching bags.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jul 3, 2016 -> 01:21 PM) Good Q. That's what I say . Build some trench mentality . It isn't just a game, it's a battle and you can't be soft no matter the score.

QUOTE (harkness @ Jul 1, 2016 -> 01:46 PM) Wow... 3 wins is a lot. The fawning over a terrible catcher like Flowers is reaching ridiculous proportions. I don't care how good of a job they do 3 wins is just a total reach.

He is the man.

Wha ..? No winners thread ? Classic see saw battle. Sox go for 4th series win in a row with Q on the bump. Theme song for the win is the Moody Blues " Ride My See-Saw" ( one of their best rocking songs IMO )

Central on fire. Indians lose for 1st time in over 2 weeks. Tigers now 5 above and Royals 6 above ,500 while Sox are working on taking 4 series in a row. Indians have played 10 more road than home games and with their very good home record they might end up leaving the rest of the division in the dust and become a serious contender for the championship.

Some times it looks like Abreu just gives AB's away. Looks at 2 pitches right down the middle them weakly waves at a pitch at least a foot outside.

Time to push a run across.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jun 30, 2016 -> 05:29 PM) I bought some melatonin tea a few years ago to help me try and sleep. s*** works way, way, way too well. I had a very hard time waking up on it and would feel groggy all day. Now I just stick to the old standbys weed and booze to put me to bed. Or the Sox offense. The best way to fell asleep is owning a very comfy couch and working your ass off physically. I can't lay down on my couch without falling asleep.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Jun 30, 2016 -> 03:14 PM) Huston is 9 and 1 in their last 10 and has been turning it around for about a month +. The Sox can't seem to get back to consistent winning ways but may have turned the corner, winning their last three series and going 7 - 3 in their last 10. We'll have an inconsistent Gonzalez going in front of our 1 / 2 punch of Sale / Q. With Huston 2 games ahead of us in the wild card and only a half a game out from the top spot - an unlikely sweep would be just about as big as any three game set we've had this far during 2016. Anything less than a series win is a big fail. We gotta right the ship for the rest of the year --- and it starts with this upcoming series. Who are you to say what the Sox need to do ? You can't even wake up on time to do your game thread duties. You'd be working on your 3rd one for tomorrow if you were not stoned on melatonin. Slacker !

Andersons jump throw from 10 feet at least on the OF grass to nail Plouffe was a thing of grace and beauty.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jun 30, 2016 -> 02:55 PM) Yes but the last 14 have been solo. The game against Toronto in which we hit 7 solo home runs started that, so "a few games back" is correct, but not recent enough, Thanks wasn't sure if we had hit 14 since then or not.

QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Jun 30, 2016 -> 02:32 PM) By the way I think the Sox have now hit 14 consecutive solo home runs. Nice to get the win. Bad news about Davidson. The baseball gods are saying again it's not your season. Mark I'm pretty sure Frazier had a 2 run bomb a few games back.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jun 30, 2016 -> 02:23 PM) Fractured foot for Davidson Yikes ! How did Anderson avoid the Curse of the Call Ups ? I'm glad he did though. Knock on wood.

The theme for this victory is Meat Loaf's " Two Out of Three Ain't Bad "

Every hitter in the starting lineup had a hit . Team RISP Sox were 5-11. Anderson had his 1st non HR RBI coming through with a 2 out 2 run single . Saladino looked good playing flawless 3rd base and contributing a solo HR , RBI single and an SB.

Another multi hit game. Anderson will be at .300 soon until pitchers figure out not to bother even throwing the kid a strike. Pretty soon will be seeing what Boshers of the Twins did to him in the 8 th inning. Threw all balls and Anderren swung at 3 of them and K'ed. None of the pitches were even particularly close to a strike.

Davidson should be comfortable coming up now with Anderson here and doing well. Make it a healthy competition.
