Base hit for Alexei!

Tie it up, Alexei.

I love Tank!

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 12, 2014 -> 11:51 PM) At least we created a save situation. Might come in handy in Game 3 if they can't use Johnson, or he gets extended too much tonight. He's gonna blow the save.

LOL, they're gonna blow it!

As I was saying...

Need a HR by Abreu so he can stay in the game.

Time for the big rally.

QUOTE (raBBit @ May 12, 2014 -> 11:24 PM) Hawk and Stone are talking about how trading Reed for Eaton was great trade by Hahn. BOTH Hawk and Stone. Yesterday Melton was talking about how the Sox got both Eaton and Davidson for Reed.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ May 12, 2014 -> 11:24 PM) Better than Garcia? That's a pretty damn good return for an aging, expensive SP. It's not like Peavy had a ton of value. I'm not as high on Garcia as most. Sure he has the physical tools, but I see him as a big strong guy who doesn't hit for power and is a butcher in the field. And although he has great speed it appeared as if he already lost a half step this season even at his young age. He can still turn out to be a good player but he's far from a sure thing.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 12, 2014 -> 11:19 PM) With Rios, you never know if they could have afforded Abreu then. I'm ok with those trades, as it resulted in Abreu and Avi and some decent minor leaguers. The trade that's a killer if it doesn't work out is Addison Reed for Davidson. I still can't believe we didn't get something better for Peavey.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 12, 2014 -> 11:18 PM) Was that Big Hurt in the dugout? What's he doing in there? KW asked him to hold a bat in the dugout and act as a decoy.

If only the Sox would have included some money in the Peavey and Rios trades.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 12, 2014 -> 11:14 PM) That DP was big-time. Maybe it will wake up our dormant bats. Maybe it will, Greg. Maybe it will.

What a nice DP. Great job by Alexei!

Hawk still whining about the bunt. Never mind the double off the wall and the wild pitch. Now the walk. Webb having a bad outing.

All in all, a decent outing for Danks.

Dunn with the unassisted DP.

Sox need to score some runs.

My man Tank!

Instant replay review is ruining baseball.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ May 12, 2014 -> 12:38 PM) If we assume Abreu and Eaton are for real and that Garcia bounces back fully from surgery, I'd have no problem at all moving Viciedo and getting a defense/speed guy to slot in to LF. Viciedo is better than Avi Garcia.

Noesi strikes out Ross.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 11, 2014 -> 01:42 PM) Really was hoping for a win today, and a 5-4 road trip before 4 with the Yankees. Team looks flat...and dumb. It's early yet.
