Okay they're gonna lose 2-1 now.

What the... runner on third?!

This is a terrible Royals team. Sox probably lose 2-0.

I'm getting to the point where I think this team just is what it is. Mediocre to bad offense and good pitching that's prone to explosions every so often.

Lol Salvy laughing at that one

Wide zone tonight

3 2/3 7 ER for Rodon. Just taken out of the game. Doesn't really have the slider today.

I'll take 6 innings 3 runs against the Yankees any day. Too bad today was going against their hottest starter.

I assume they'll DFA McGuire eventually.

Abreu just not good right now.

Vaughn just missed it

Tim swung at ball 4

I will never tire of seeing Chapman lose

I get that it was a 5 out save but man Hendricks has been bad this year.

Good to see him producing. Hopefully he can get hot because his current numbers in AA are not inspiring.

Great game to be at - beautiful weather and the Sox played well. Surprised the crowd was so small, though, but having a whole row lower deck behind home plate to ourselves was pretty great. Play at the end of the game looked safe to me from where we sat. Glad I was wrong.

No - all three are potentially solid starters, but none of them have done that consistently in the minors. I imagine they're all due for regression, though Naylor hits the ball really hard, so for him it'll be more using his aggression against him.

Still can't believe they lost that game. I'll be there tonight in section 128. Hope it goes better.

Still can't believe Josh Naylor hit a grand slam and a 3 run homer after the 8th inning.

Not mad at TLR for the minor moves (pitching to Naylor etc). The lack of preparation and consistency is atrocious though. TA shouldn't be playing the way he is on defense. The team needs to take pitches while hitting.

I can't fault Banks there with 2 errors, one absolutely critical.

I wonder if the Dodgers ever lost a game like this. They should ask Pollock and Kelly instead of the riveting interview that TLR is.

If he said "we lost because Josh Naylor" that would at least be kind of right.

I'm just talking about since the last playoff appearance before 2020. Not gonna even bother going into the rest of it.

I don't think any of us suffered through 8 years of mediocrity (09-16) then 3 years of rebuilding (17-19) for this kind of performance.
