Just don't believe they trust Baldwin at SS compared to second...or OF.

Would Slater or Tauchman have had it? With Benintendi in LF Taylor might have been in RF.But then you're still benching a solid prospect.

Ofc Jones or Palacios might have had it...and we were promised better fielding the last two years. But you simply can't bench Baldwin after yesterday. Surely he's doing the best he can. Boston announcers certainly didn't call that play like he had a shot at it...they thought it was gone off the bat.

That's what happens at 55...or Sammy Hagar songs about the speed limit.

Ouch...beaned in the helmet by Thaiss. Going to Lefty? Venable managing like it's the post season.

Travel day from AZ?

Against who?

Electric Boogaloo...

Crochet is really not a SS any longer...at least at the big league level.

Clevinger in.

You would think Crochet was pitching through the 2027 Yankees with how they're going on and on. 97 mph. 75 pitches. 9 k's

Baldwin more comfortable in RF... good/solid arm and Venable probably believed more plays in left field.

Start Greg Jones or Palacios? Then you get no offense. Hard to bench a kid after the winning hit yesterday. But this is the issue playing Amaya so often...trade off.

Baldwin really had a good shot at that?

Especially since this has happened three consecutive starts.

Bend but don't break...would have been a Homer without the wind.

It was inevitable Crochet would dominate...just like McIlroy rattled on a Sunday.

5 2/3 again...danger zone.

Smith 1.04 era. Unreal start to his career. Pretty sure no Sox pitcher has EVER had this type of run over three consecutive starts in a row.

Shocking, right? Like a McIlroy double bogey to start the day. But Smith is hanging in there...keeps hitting a wall in the 5th/6th...which shouldn't be a surprise at all.

Crochet totally dominated that inning.

They had 3-4 arms they were all trying to protect and chose poorly. Deep system that suddenly looks vulnerable. Country hard ball with Taylor.

Even Boston broadcasters are quite impressed...

Campbell and Casas starting to lift the ball... Baldwin getting more and more comfortable defensively. Fought the wind and teammates there.

Fast moving game at least. Smith giving up harder contact but right at fielders.
